Zafirah Doss brings clutch bat, clean defense, and senior poise to Howard’s softball push
In the 2026 season, Howard senior Zafirah Doss has been a reliable utility/catcher weapon: she hit .286 with 4 hits in 14 at-bats, posted a .500 slugging percentage, scored 5 runs, drove in 2, and played error-free defense with a 1.000 fielding percentage in 18 games and 4 starts. She also showed up in pressure spots, including a key two-run single against Coppin State and a double in a tight loss to George Mason. What makes her valuable is the combo of contact, versatility, and steady, senior-level calm—she looks like the kind of glue player coaches trust in messy innings and big moments.
