Salvarola, a first team selection, hit .407 with 14 RBI in BIG EAST play last season. Nevins, a second team selection, ranked third in the nation with a 1.12 ERA and led the BIG EAST in wins (31) and strikeouts (336). Notre Dame, the 2012 BIG EAST runner-up, received one first-place vote and 129 points to rank second in the poll. The Fighting Irish finished second in the BIG EAST last season with a 16-3 record and 40-16 overall mark and return four AllBIG EAST selections including the 2012 Pitcher of the Year, junior Laura Winter. Winter went 13-2 in league play with 12 complete games, four shutouts and a 1.21 ERA. She ranked second in the BIG EAST and 16th in the nation in strikeouts, recording 287. Joining her are three 2012 All-BIG EAST Second Team selections: catcher/utility Amy Buntin, shortstop Chloe Saganowich and rightfielder Kelsey Thornton. Notre Dame has finished conference play in the top-two spots in each of the previous four seasons. Ranking third in the preseason poll is reigning BIG EAST Champion Louisville with four first-place votes and 128 points. The Cardinals claimed the BIG EAST regular-season and championship titles in 2012. They finished with a 55-5 overall mark and a 20-2 conference record. The 2012 BIG EAST Coaching Staff of the Year loses two All-BIG EAST First Team selections from a year ago but returns seven all-conference selections. Catcher/utility Taner Fowler and first baseman Alicja Wolny were first-team selections last season while second baseman Katie Keller and pitcher Caralisa Connell were named to the second team.

L o u i s v i ll e Cardinals

Junior Taner Fowler

Notebook •

• •

In 2012, the Cardinals posted a program-best 55-5 record and made their ninth-straight NCAA appearance, earning the 15th overall seed and hosting for the third time in four years. Louisville finished the season at No. 17 in the USA Today/ NFCA poll and No. 18 in the ESPN.com/USA Softball Coaches poll after spending the majority of the season in the top 10 and reaching as high as No. 7/9. Louisville returns eight starters and 12 letterwinners from last year’s team including All-American Taner Fowler and fellow All-BIG EAST selections Alicja Wolny, Katie Keller, Whitney Arion, Caralisa Connell, Jenn Esteban and Jordan Trimble. The Cardinals welcome four newcomers to this year’s team. Head coach Sandy Pearsall reached her 500th win at Louisville last season.

Junior Chloe Saganowich •

Notebook

Notre Dame returns one National Fastpitch Coaches Association All-American from last season, catcher/utility player Amy Buntin. Buntin batted .360 with 62 base hits, 60 RBI and 45 runs scored in 2012, all team-highs, to earn second team All-America honors. 2012 BIG EAST Pitcher of the Year, Laura Winter, led Notre Dame with a 29-11 record, a 2.18 ERA and 288 strikeouts as a sophomore. Winter was also an All-BIG EAST First Team selection and an NFCA All-Region Second Team choice last season. The Fighting Irish are scheduled to face four teams that appeared in either the 2012 NCAA Super Regionals or the 2012 NCAA Women’s College World Series this season. Notre Dame will face Washington (Super Regionals) Feb. 15, Oklahoma (NCAA runner-up) Feb. 17, Arizona State (WCWS) March 10 and Arizona (Super Regionals) March 14. Notre Dame returns 13 monogram winners from 2012, and welcomes a five-player freshman class.

Holly Stevens, Pitt’s lone senior, is the Panthers’ all-time leader in home runs with 27 and was an All-Big East performer as a sophomore and a junior. Pitcher Savannah King enters her sophomore campaign after setting numerous single-season pitching records as a freshman. King set the single-season program mark for most wins (19), innings pitched (227.1) and appearances (40). The Panthers will be one of the youngest teams in the nation as 87.5 percent of their roster is made up of freshmen and sophomores (14 of 16 players on the roster). Stevens, along with Maggie Sevilla and Carissa Throckmorton, are the only three returners who started all 52 games for Pitt last year. Pitt will face 11 teams that appeared in the 2012 NCAA Tournament.

Notebook • •

St. John’s is coming off one of its most successful campaigns in school history in 2012, where it reached the semifinals of the BIG EAST Championship for the first time since 1980. The 2013 squad will have a much different look than the team that set a school record for home runs with 45 in 2012. The entire pitching staff is returning, bolstered by current junior Ashley Beza who threw 160 strikeouts in 2012, the most by a Red Storm pitcher in three seasons and the sixth-most all-time. Leading the offense will be a trio of power-hitting infielders in senior Chrissy Montez, junior Jackie Reed and sophomore Erin Burner, who combined for 44 percent of St. John’s home runs and 46 percent of the team’s RBI in 2012. The 2013 Red Storm will be relying on the talented underclassmen recruited by head coach Amy Kvilhaug and her staff as St. John’s will feature one of the youngest rosters in the BIG EAST with 11 underclassmen on the 18-player roster. St. John’s will earn national exposure in 2013 as 10 of the Red Storm’s home games will be broadcast on ESPN3 as part of the agreement between the “Worldwide Leader In Sports” and the St. John’s Television Network.

Paige Smith is in her first season as head coach at Seton Hall. Prior to coming to Seton Hall, Smith spent the last five seasons at NCAA Division II Adelphi where she compiled an overall record of 169-104-1, leading the Panthers to a pair of NCAA Tournament appearances. Seton Hall returns five positional starters and a total of 17 letterwinners to this year’s team, including a pair of players who started every game in the infield for the Pirates in 2012, shortstop Brittany Hamm and third baseman Meredith Henze. Pitcher Jen Metzger missed the second half of last season due to injury but will return for 2013. In 10 appearances last season. Metzger posted a 5-2 overall record with a team-leading 2.30 earned run average, racking up 39 strikeouts in 45.2 innings. Metzger ranks 10th in school history with a 3.49 career ERA. After just one season, Danielle DeStaso already ranks 13th in school history after striking out 105 batters during her freshman campaign. She threw a team-high 131.0 innings in 2012 posting a 6-15 overall record. Brittany Hammer ranked second on the team with a .300 batting average last season and her 34 runs scored represent the sixth-highest single-season total in Seton Hall history. Hammer is also tied for 13th in program history with 20 doubles, eight of which came during the 2012 season.

Notebook • • • •

The Bulls are coming off their best finish in school history, earning their first trip to the WCWS after hosting the Super Regional. USF returns its full pitching staff from 2012, one which finished second in the nation in ERA, and adds lefthanded freshman Erica Nunn to the rotation. The Bulls bolster their offense with some new bats, including freshman pitcher Erica Nunn, freshman catcher Lee Ann Spivey, and junior transfer Dani Wayt. USF returns the core of its batting order with D’Anna Devine and Ashli Goff as experienced table-setters, and Kourtney Salvarola, Kenshyra Jackson and Stephanie Medina as proven RBI threats. All-American Sara Nevins returns as a junior after being a top-ten finalist for NFCA Player of the Year in 2012.

Senior Valeri Ortega

Notebook • • •

Villanova finished with 30-plus wins in 2012 for only the 11th time in school history. Last season, Valerie Ortega led the team with 171 at-bats and ranked second in hits with 58. Ortega registered 17 RBI, a triple, and a team-high 16 doubles during her at-bats in 2012. Villanova’s young pitching staff is anxious to fill the holes left by graduation. The Wildcats look to replace the pitching duo of Molly Manning and Caitlin Delahaba who combined for 30 wins and 221 strikeouts during the 2012 season. This season the Wildcats will feature nine newcomers with a lot of talent and a strong core of 14 returning players, including five starters. Head Coach Maria DiBernardi is back at the helm of the women’s softball program for her 29th season in 2013. She notched her 700th career win on March 9, 2012 with a 2-1 victory over USC Upstate.
