Former OU softball star Jocelyn Alo signed a one-month contract with the Savannah Bananas, the team announced Friday.

Alo, the NCAA career leader in home runs, will make her debut Friday night in Mesa, Arizona.

The Savannah Bananas are an exhibition baseball team that play banana ball, an entertaining form of the game that includes horseplay and dances. In a way, they’re the Harlem Globetrotters of baseball.

The 25-year-old Alo is one of the best players in college softball history and played at OU from 2018-22.
