Jackie Bilotti finished her first season as an assistant coach for the softball team in 2020.
Bilotti joined the coaching staff after a remarkable four-year career at Arcadia. The shortstop is a four-time National Fastpitch Coaches Association All-Region selection and garnered All-America honors in 2019. She is also a three-time MAC Commonwealth Player of the Year, four-time all-conference first-team selection and was chosen a Middle Atlantic Conference Woman of the Year nominee in 2019.
In her senior season, Billotti led the team to the program's first ever MAC Championship, first ever NCAA Tournament win and the most victories (33) since 2006 when the team tallied 34 wins. Bilotti hit a team-best .448 and led the squad with 64 hits, 41 runs, eight doubles and six triples. She was second on the team with 22 runs driven in and stole 20 bases in 22 attempts. Her six triples and 88 total bases were both tops in the MAC Commonwealth, and she ranked second in batting average, runs, hits and steals. Bilotti became the Knights' all-time leader in hits (235) and stolen bases (78).
An early childhood/special education major, Bilotti also excelled in the classroom. The North Wales, Pa. native is a three-time COSIDA All-District selection, and became just the fourth Knight in any sport to earn Academic All-America honors.
