It is allowed now. This is from 2023.
... a very significant change to the fastpitch softball pitching rules in the NCAA, NFHS, and various travel ball level organizations. The rule involves leaping, i.e., having both feet in the air during the stride-out portion of the pitch.
A crow hop where the pitcher would push off with the foot a second time is still illegal.
