Jaycee Garrigan is a former softball player from Salve Regina University who got to use her extra year of eligibility to play another season as a master's student this past spring. Jaycee graduated with her bachelors degree in Healthcare administration from Salve Regina in 2020. In addition to being an adept outfielder with a lot of range she was also a seasoned pitcher, and a power hitter. Jaycee led the Seahawks as captain from her junior year to her final fifth year. As a sophomore year she was named Third Team CCC and Academic All-Conference her junior year and broke the squat record at Salve Regina with an incredible lift of 300 pounds in 2018!

As a second-year graduate student, Jaycee serves as a shining example of a superb (retired) college athlete to those aspiring to make it to the next level. She worked tirelessly on the field and in the classroom, was a devoted teammate and leader, and her work ethic has earned her a starting position for the Seahawks since her freshman year. And like most college athletes, she is going pro in something other than her sport.
