As many have noted, there is a large world of "college softball" outside of D1. For some players DII, DIII, NAIA, JUCO softball may be the perfect fit for reasons not just related to ability.
Along those lines, below is a link to an ESPN article about a pitcher who has proven that there is a now road, albeit rarely traveled, from DIII to the NFPA. For those that don't follow DIII, 2015 was highlighted by Tufts University capping a 51-0 season with its third consecutive NCAA championship. The article provides some insight why DIII was the right option for the young woman who led Tufts' remarkable run.
