Jessica shows a lot of potential as the Oaks' hard-hitting first baseman. The freshman from Citrus Heights, CA continues to provide Menlo's lineup with some serious pop and her defense is improving game by game. Jessica showed off her offensive skills during a doubleheader back on February 26, 2011 against Dominican University. Soliai went 2 for 4 in the first game of the twin bill including a clutch 7th inning single that almost won the game for the Lady Oaks.
