the
program
Winning is an attitude that permeates the entire University of Oklahoma athletics program. Championships and postseason play are synonymous with practically every Sooner sport. Over the last 16 years, no OU program has accomplished more than softball. Head coach Patty Gasso needed just five years before she took her team to the pinnacle of the sport - and OU has not dropped from elite territory since. Gasso and company have created a tradition that rivals nearly any program in college softball and it has only taken 16 years. During that span, OU has averaged nearly 46 wins a season and won, on average, 65 percent of its contests. It is no wonder the Sooners have risen to national prominence so quickly.

defining
moment
The program’s defining moment came in its first trip to the Women’s College World Series in 2000. The Sooners came away victorious. Since then, they have made appearances in five WCWS and have become one of the most recognizable teams in the sport.
the
architect
Marita Hynes took a major risk when she chose Patty Gasso to lead the softball program in 1995. Gasso was a successful junior college coach at Long Beach City College without any ties to the midwest, let alone Oklahoma. Gasso jumped at the opportunity and immediately began attracting top athletes from each coast and everywhere in between. Players like Kansas native Lisa Carey and California native Heather Scaglione were given the chance to shine in the Sooner spotlight and are perfect examples of players from different backgrounds who have become some of the biggest names in the sport. 2000 National Champions

The numbers tell the story of the Oklahoma softball program’s dramatic rise into elite company. The Sooners have made trips to the Women’s College World Series five times. No other team east of Pac-10 country had ever been to five consecutive WCWS until the Sooners did it from 2000-04. OU qualified for the national championship tournament by winning five straight NCAA Regional Championships. During that run to five consecutive WCWS, no team has been more efficient in its efforts. Patty Gasso’s troops have gone 34-9 in regionals over the last 10 seasons. Since Gasso stepped onto campus in 1995, the Sooners have won three Big 12 postseason championships, nine NCAA Regional Championships and qualified for five WCWS. That is a run that is unparalleled by any program east of Arizona and one that can only be matched by a few out west.

The Sooners swept through their home regional as they defeated Harvard, Cal State-Northridge and beat Oregon State twice to make their first ever appearance in the World Series. The Sooner magic continued in Oklahoma City as Oklahoma opened the series with a 2-1 win over California and knocked off Southern Mississippi and perennial powerhouse Arizona to advance to the title game against UCLA. Using a 3-1 win over the Bruins, OU claimed its first national title in program history.
A year after winning the national title and becoming only the second non-west coast team to win a softball national championship, the Sooners were back in the title hunt again. Once again, OU swept through its home regional after beating Lehigh, North Carolina and No. 12 Washington (twice) to advance to its second straight WCWS. The Sooners carried the nation’s longest winning streak into the World Series, but went 1-2 and were eliminated by LSU in a heartbreaking 2-1 game.
The Sooners faced a tough task as they hosted the top-seeded Texas Longhorns in the Norman Regional. Oklahoma opened the regional with victories over Utah and Texas A&M before facing Texas and Olympic pitcher Cat Osterman. The Sooners avenged a loss to the Longhorns in the Big 12 Tournament as they scored four runs and advanced to the regional finals with a 4-1 win. Texas A&M knocked off Texas again and OU topped the Aggies 4-1 in the final to advance to its third straight WCWS.
Different from their first three WCWS appearances, the Sooners had to do it on the road as they were sent to Gainesville, Fla., for the NCAA Regional. It didn’t phase the Sooners as OU swept through the regional with the closest margin of victory being four runs. Oklahoma knocked off Bethune Cookman, South Florida, Texas-Arlington and Oregon State on its way to its fourth consecutive Women’s College World Series appearance.
OU faced another daunting task when it learned of its NCAA Regional schedule as it was headed to No. 1 Arizona as the No. 2 seed in the toughest regional in the tournament. Oklahoma faced the No. 1 Wildcats in the winner’s bracket and upset Arizona, 3-2. The topranked Wildcats were knocked out by Louisiana-Lafayette in the loser’s bracket final. The Cajuns, who had to beat the Sooners twice, topped OU in the first game but Oklahoma responded with a 15-0 run rule to advance to its fifth WCWS.

The University of Oklahoma earned its first-ever softball national championship by defeating UCLA, 3-1, in front 8,049 at Don E. Porter Hall of Fame Stadium in Oklahoma City on May 29, 2000. The title was the first by a women’s athletic program at Oklahoma. The Sooners finished the season with the best record in the country at 66-8. Oklahoma, the third seed in the WCWS, got on the scoreboard in the third inning with a two-run home run from All-American first baseman Lisa Carey (left). Freshman shortstop Kelli Braitsch then nailed an RBI single to left field later in the inning to give OU the 3-0 lead. Jennifer Stewart earned the World Series Most Outstanding Player award, earning victories in all four of OU’s WCWS wins. Carey and Braitsch joined Stewart on the all-tournament team. OU became just the second non-west coast team to win a softball national championship.

OU head coach Patty Gasso came on board in 1995 and one year later the Big 12 was born. Since season one, the Sooners have proved to be the class of the conference. They won the first regular season title, they were the first to 50 wins and the first to 100 wins. It’s no wonder they lead the conference in all-time winning percentage.

No Big 12 softball program has seen that spotlight shine more brightly in its direction than Oklahoma. No Big 12 team has made more appearances at the WCWS since the inception of the conference in 1996. In fact, Nebraska and Texas are the only other teams to make more than one trip to the WCWS during that time frame. OU has more NFCA All-Americans than the rest of the conference. The nation’s coaches have voted 34 Sooners onto the NFCA’s All-America teams since the inception of the Big 12. Only three other teams - Nebraska, Texas and Texas A&M - can claim to have double-digit All-Americans during the era. The Sooners lead the pack in All-Big 12 first team selections (61) and all-time winning percentage (.650).

Oklahoma pitcher Lana Moran took the term student-athlete to new heights with her 2000 Academic AllAmerican of the Year recognition. The lone senior on the 2000 National Championship team, Moran captained the squad as she tallied a 26-2 mark with five shutouts in the circle. Moran’s biggest achievement came in the classroom where the San Bernardino, Calif., native compiled a 3.88 GPA in sociology. Moran was a two-time GTE first team Academic All-American, a four-time Academic All-Big 12 selection and the first Sooner in any sport to be named the Academic All-American of the Year.

getting
recognit ion
With team accomplishments comes individual recognition. That adage has held true with the OU softball program, which has raked in just about every honor out there. Start with the coaching staff. OU head coach Patty Gasso, has been named the Big 12 Coach of the Year four times - 1996, 1999, 2000 and 2009. Gasso and her staff were named Speedline/NFCA Division I National Coaching Staff of the Year in 2000 after claiming the National Championship. The OU coaching staff has also garnered the NFCA Midwest Region Coaching Staff of the Year award on five occasions - 1996, 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2004.
player of the year
OU players have accumulated more honors than any other conference member. The list starts with All-Americans, of which OU has 36. At the regional level, 80 players have landed on the team. Among the Big 12 ranks, 61 Sooners have notched first team conference awards. Add in a National Player of the Year finalist, seven Big 12 Players of the Year, two Freshman of the Year honorees, three Defensive Players of the Year, one Newcomer of the Year, one Pitcher of the Year, 47 Players of the Week and 28Pitchers of the Week and the list becomes overwhelming.
finalist
Samantha Ricketts made history in 2007 as she became the first OU player ever to finish as one of the final three contestants for USA Softball’s Collegiate Player of the Year. Ricketts, who led the nation in RBI during the regular season, joined Arizona State’s Kaitlin Cochran and Tennessee’s Monica Abbott (the winner) as one of three finalists.

The softball program has always produced well-rounded athletes and the academic honors don’t take a back seat. In 2000, Lana Moran became the first Sooner in any sport to garner the Academic All-American of the Year. Seven student-athletes have been named Academic All-Americans. Ten have earned Academic All-District recognition. A total of 36 were named Academic All-Big Eight and 70 have already earned Academic All-Big 12 acclaim.

The phone in Oklahoma head coach Patty Gasso’s office rang three different times. Each time, the USA Elite team selection committee was on the other end. Each time they wanted Gasso to gauge the interest one of her players would have in playing for the 2004 Elite team. After the third call, Gasso sat in her office and pondered what had happened over the last month. During that span, three Sooners had been invited (and accepted) to play in the First World University Softball Championships as members of the USA Elite team, which ranked only behind the Olympic team. Three Sooners were on the 16-player team, which was a first for any team at OU and only the fourth time any softball program had placed that many players on the squad at the same time. It was just another sign that OU was among collegiate softball’s creme de la creme but it still took some time to hit Gasso. USA Softball’s interest in the Oklahoma program continued during the summer of 2006 as alum Norrelle Dickson was one of 16 collegiate players to play on the USA World Team in Taiwan. Sooner players have been called on before. Former Sooners Kami Keiter and Heather Scaglione were rookies on the 2004 squad. Dickson, on the other hand, played in five tournaments with the Elite squad. Former Sooner Kristin Vesely played for the USA Junior National Team before her freshman year and alum Leah Gulla (2000-03) was part of the Olympic Trials. Additionally, Samantha Ricketts, as well as alums Christina Enea, Kelli Braitsch and Lisa Carey have received a number of tryouts. Freshman Destinee Martinez won gold with Team USA at the III Pan American Championship in August 2010. Team USA defeated Canada, 3-1, to win the event and qualify for the International Softball Federation Junior Women’s World Championship, scheduled for December 2011 in Cape Town, South Africa. Sooner softball has carved its niche into USA Softball and Gasso should be ready for future calls.

sooners in the
pros
As the sport of softball has risen in popularity over the last decade, the number of opportunities for collegiate athletes to play following their career has sky-rocketed. The Sooners have watched numerous alums graduate to the professional ranks. As far back as Jill Most, Jennfier Jaime and Lynnette Velasquez, OU has made an impact on the highest stage of softball. Amber Flores was taken as the fifth overall pick by the USSSA Pride in 2010. Oklahoma has now had 14 players drafted to the NPF league since its inaugural draft prior to the 2004 season. Flores joins Sooner alums Samantha Ricketts, D.J. Mathis, Savannah Long, Susan Ogden, Lauren Eckermann, Norrelle Dickson, Heather Scaglione, Kami Keiter, Christina Enea, Erin Evans, Christy Ring, Leah Gulla and Kristin Vesely who were all drafted by the league.

The Women’s College World Series has been the biggest event in Oklahoma over the last few years. The Oklahoma softball team capitalized on that exposure by winning in its first trip to the WCWS in 2000. Patty Gasso’s squad enjoys more coverage than arguably any program in the country. The unique media landscape in Oklahoma has something to do with that. Five straight WCWS trips has been a bigger influence. Perhaps nothing better illustrates the softball program’s rise than a June 2004, story in the largest paper in the state, The Oklahoman. Columnist Jenni Carlson boldly proclaimed head coach Patty Gasso as the best coach at the university. Carlson ranked Gasso’s achievements above those of football coach Bob Stoops, basketball coach Sherri Coale and gymnastics coach Mark Williams. One opinion sparked argument throughout the state. Gasso couldn’t buy publicity that good. But she and her teams have certainly earned it. The Sooners are represented on the social media front. The University of Oklahoma Athletics Department has official pages on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. The softball program utilities all three to provide fans with a behind-the-scenes look at the program. The team’s official Twitter account (@SoonerSoftball) is a sport favorite.

Sooner softball receives a big slice of the coverage the University of Oklahoma receives. Behind football and the basketball programs, softball and baseball are next on the food chain. The fact that softball and baseball are on the same level at OU says a lot about the success of Patty Gasso’s program. The media attention peaked to a near all-time high in 2004 when the Sooners advanced out of the toughest regional in the country, in the process knocking off No. 1 Arizona and No. 9 Louisiana-Lafayette. The Sooners were not only the biggest story in Oklahoma, but they stole the spotlight on the national level of collegiate softball.

Marita Hynes Field at the OU Softball Complex has been one of the sparkling gems of the sport since it opened its doors in 1998. OU was one of the first schools outside of the Pac 10 to make the commitment to its softball program by building an exclusive facility for the sport. The trend caught on and Oklahoma was again leading the pack in women’s athletics as new stadiums have sprung up across the national landscape. The OU Softball Complex uses a synthetic waterproof dirt on the infield and warning track, which allows Patty Gasso’s team to train on the field minutes after a rain storm has moved through. A recent addition to the facility was a 6,020-squarefoot indoor facility opened in January 2009. The indoor facility features a 65’ x 65’ infield with Hilltopper infield dirt and storage for the team and grounds crew. The infield also accommodates four hitting lanes. The complex provides permanent chair back and bleacher seating with a capacity of 1,000; a concessions building and rest rooms; press box; VIP lounge and a ticket office. The complex is equipped with a state-of-the-art underground drainage system, sprinkler system and batting cages. A paved parking lot was in place in time for the 1999 season and OU added the Robert E. Young & Family Softball Locker Room in 2002. A full-color video scoreboard was added prior to the 2010 season. The field was named for former softball coach and senior woman administrator, Marita Hynes, in 2004.

It’s a tough task to find a single individual who has had more effect on the collegiate sport of softball and its rise in popularity than Marita Hynes. The longtime former senior woman administrator for Oklahoma actually served as the program’s second softball coach. When she retired from coaching to begin a career as an administrator, she remained active in the softball world. She spearheaded the fund-raising campaign to build the OU Softball Complex and oversaw its construction. During those years, she helped lure the Women’s College World Series to Oklahoma City. For all her contributions to OU and beyond, the athletics department officially christened the playing surface as Marita Hynes Field on April 24, 2004.

Oklahoma’s weight training program is a pioneer in the development of strength and conditioning, and is a vital part of the Sooners’ traditional success. OU strength and conditioning coaches utilize their expertise along with a wide array of equipment and tests to produce national championship-caliber athletes. Evaluation, goal-oriented programs, supervision and state-of-the-art facilities help Oklahoma athletes become bigger, faster, stronger and more flexible. The Robin Siegfried & Family Strength and Conditioning Complex, located in the Barry Switzer Center, has 13,000 square feet to facilitate the intensive training of OU athletes. The objective of the strength and conditioning program is to ensure each student-athlete in every sport is provided with a sound in-season and off-season program. This program of activity includes strength, conditioning, flexibility and nutrition. A strength and conditioning coordinator for each sport is provided to assist athletes in reaching the highest possible training levels. Located at the south end of Oklahoma Memorial Stadium, the Barry Switzer Center houses administrative offices, the football locker room, the equipment room, the 8,000-square-foot Henry Freede Sports Medicine Facility and the 7,000-square-foot Touchdown Club Legends Lobby in addition to the Siegfried Strength and Conditioning Complex.

Before the start of the fall season, the OU softball team tackles one of its toughest strength and conditioning tests of the year - the annual triathlon. The event features a three mile run, a six-mile bike ride and a swim. The mental test is designed to push the student-athletes to finish and overcome challenges. An overall winner is named, as well as second and third-place finishers. Each event also has a winner. The event is considered the first step on the ladder of the team’s ultimate goal - a national championship.

Oklahoma feels a strong responsibility to help its athletes reach and maintain their optimum health and achieve conditioning goals. For this reason, OU has developed excellent training and conditioning programs to lessen the possibility of injuries. However, should injuries occur, the department is committed to a comprehensive rehabilitation program. Complete athletically-related medical services are provided to Oklahoma student-athletes by team physicians and OU’s certified athletic trainers. The University of Oklahoma obtains the services of the best medical consultants available. The base of operation for the Sooners’ medical care is the state-of-the-art Henry J. Freede, M.D. Sports Medicine Center in the Barry Switzer Center. The addition to the Barry Switzer Center has allowed the university to upgrade to a new edition of rehabilitation equipment that can best benefit the student-athletes. From simple therabands to taping tables, the new facility offers everything a school can have or hope to have. The Sooner training room is equipped to perform isokinetic joint evaluation for preventive medicine and for post-injury rehabilitation. The therapy room is supplied with the latest modalities on the market. A total team effort is the key to OU’s efficiency in preventing, treating and rehabilitating injuries sustained by student-athletes. These measures keep Sooner athletes at their highest level of performance as they compete for championships. “Sports medicine is a team effort,” said OU head trainer Scott Anderson. “The stated goal of athletic training at Oklahoma is, first of all, care for the student-athletes, thereby granting our sports a competitive advantage and ultimately greater esteem for the entire program. To that end, we are blessed with a full complement of self-sacrificing medical professionals working on a regular basis with our athletic training staff.”

The recent Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium expansion and improvement included remodeled office space in the facility’s north end. The largest piece of that project was the Prentice Gautt Academic Center. Some 35,000 square feet are dedicated to the academic pursuits of Sooner student-athletes. Indeed, there is considerable emphasis on classroom performance at OU. The center staff has achievement as its focus, a fact that is reflected in a graduation rate that exceeds that of the general student body. In addition to its academic work, the staff assists in several life skills areas designed to enrich students in a broad range of tasks. A total of 70 softball student-athletes have been named to the Academic All-Big 12 teams. Ten Sooners have earned Academic All-District honors and Lana Moran was named the softball Academic All-American of the Year in 2000. In the 1950s, he came to OU to play football, and, in the process, broke down barriers and crushed stereotypes. Today, OU student-athletes use the Prentice Gautt Academic Center to break another kind of stereotype. The center that today’s student-athletes use everyday now bears the name of the man who left an indelible legacy for Sooner Athletics and helped change a society in the process. The formal dedication of the Prentice Gautt Academic Center was held Friday, Sept. 17, 1999. The proposal to re-name the center was approved by the OU Board of Regents in March 1999. “It is appropriate that this center be named after Prentice Gautt,” OU President David L. Boren said. “His personal values and character, along with his leadership as associate commissioner of the Big 12 Conference, continue to bring pride to his alma mater. His personal example of quiet courage, grace under pressure, and dedication to the university helped open the doors of opportunity for countless number of African-American and minority student-athletes who have followed him into collegiate athletics.” The professional consultants of the Prentice Gautt Academic Center help student-athletes with a variety of academic tasks, from learning strategy instruction to any stage of the writing process including preparing for an essay exam and the formal research paper. The goal is to help student-athletes develop the strategies they need to be successful by encouraging the use of the center for all facets of the learning and writing processes encountered in college. The Prentice Gautt Academic Center provides student-athletes with a state-of-the-art academic support facility. The environment encourages a collaboration between staff members and student-athletes. In addition, it is highly conducive to learning in all areas of students’ academic endeavors and features seven learning centers.
gautt prentice
P Prentice Gautt ushered in a new era for Oklahoma foototball when he landed a spot ot on the 1956 team. Former er Sooner head coach Budd Wilkinson was pressured aga against giving Gautt a scholarrship. A group of black doctors and pharmacists gave money for Gautt to attend the school. Within a year, Gautt was given a scholarship and the donated amounts were given to another black student. Gautt, considered Oklahoma’s best player in 1958, was a two-time All-Big Eight player and 1959 Orange Bowl MVP. During his senior year, Gautt was named to the academic All-America team and eventually earned master’s and doctorate degrees in psychology. The academic center for student-athletes at the University of Oklahoma was named in Gautt’s honor in 1999. A special assistant to the commissioner of the Big 12 Conference, Gautt passed away on March 17, 2005. “His personal example of quiet courage, grace under pressure, and dedication to the university helped open the doors of opportunity for countless numbers of African-Americans and minority student-athletes who have followed him into collegiate athletics,’’ said University of Oklahoma president David Boren.

Norman is an ever-changing city of nearly 100,000 residents. Located in the heart of the state, it has grown to become the third largest city in Oklahoma. Despite its continuous growth, it has maintained the spirit and serenity of a small, close-knit community. Since the Oklahoma Land Rush of 1889, Norman has grown into a popular and smart city. The spirit of Norman and its citizens is unwavering and uncompromising. While other towns were clamoring to become the state capital, Norman residents wanted to have the first state university. When the first OU president got off the train and saw a prairie, he saw opportunity. As home to the state’s premier educational institution, Norman boasts an excellent quality of life and is a city that thrives on and celebrates the diversity of its community. Legendary University of Oklahoma football coach Barry Switzer called Norman “a university town with a championship spirit.”

Oklahoma City, the state’s capital, is located just 18 miles north of the Norman campus. It was the first city settled in the Land Run of 1889 because of its position at the center of the state. Oklahoma City offers a variety of attractions and activities different from any other place in the country. Oklahoma City sprawls across 625 square miles of America’s heartland. The city’s metro population numbers more than one million -- a third of the entire state’s population. Oklahoma City has become a haven for exciting sports action. It is home to an NBA franchise - the Oklahoma City Thunder, two minor league teams and is the host of the NCAA College Softball World Series. Located just southeast of downtown, Bricktown is Oklahoma City’s entertainment and dining district. Restaurants with a total capacity of more than 4,000 seats, shopping, and a generous helping of turn-of-the-century charm has turned Bricktown into a hotspot for Oklahoma City nights.

SEASON PREVIEW
Keilani Ricketts
TAKE YOUR SEATS YOUTHFUL EXPERIENCE HOPES TO LEAD SOONERS TO BIG 12 TITLE, BACK TO OKLAHOMA CITY
I
f last year was any indication, 2011 is going to be exciting. Oklahoma returns 10 letterwinners, and despite the youthfulness of the team, OU has the experience to go far this year. The Sooners return two All-Americans – both sophomores – in Keilani Ricketts and Jessica Shults and have three seniors ready to lead OU back to Oklahoma City. Oklahoma returns the majority of its offense after losing just two seniors a year ago. Every pitcher from the 2010 roster is back on the team. With seven newcomers including Team USA Junior National team member Destinee Martinez, fans better snatch up tickets quick. It’s evident in the preparation and mindset this team has something special. It’s a team that was one win away from the Women’s College World Series last year. A team that hit five home runs off the two-time Collegiate Player of the Year. A team that sent the Big 12 Championship out with a bang. A team with more to give. A team with a few loose ends to tie up.
So, take your seats – it’s going to be one exciting, thrilling and rewarding year. The Schedule The Sooners always play one of the nation’s toughest schedules. Head coach Patty Gasso wouldn’t have it any other way. To be the best, you have to beat the best and year-in and year-out, Oklahoma is right there. The 2011 slate features 15 NCAA Tournament teams from a year ago with six opponents among the final eight at the 2010 Women’s College World Series in Oklahoma City. A total of 19 homes games take place at the OU Softball Complex this season, including conference matchups against Oklahoma State, Nebraska, Baylor, Texas A&M and Iowa State.
40 | 2011 OKLAHOMA SOFTBALL | FOUR REGULAR SEASON BIG 12 TITLES
“Each year, it’s our goal to put together a very competitive and challenging schedule,” said Gasso. “We embrace the opportunity to compete against the best in the country, and we understand how important it is for our team’s development. We look forward to preparing for the tough road ahead.” The Pitchers Oklahoma returns all four pitchers from last season, including All-American Keilani Ricketts. Ricketts. Ricketts earned second team honors from the National Fastpitch Coaches Association and was a first team all-region honoree. She ended the year with 346 strikeouts, the second most in a single season at OU. Her 1.24 earned run average was one of the nation’s best. Ricketts went 32-10 and pitched 14 shutouts in 259.2 innings pitched. She held opponents to a .151 average and had two saves.

SEASON PREVIEW Michelle Gascoigne also returns after a freshman season that saw this California native earn a 7-0 record with a 1.92 earned run average. Gascoigne pitched 65.2 innings and held opponents to a .201 batting average. Kirsten Allen (1.66) and Allee Allen (1.05) both return as juniors. Kirsten Allen pitched 46.1 innings a year ago and is the only right-handed pitcher on the staff. Allee Allen saw limited time after returning from off-season shoulder sugery. The Infielders Jessica Shults moves to catcher after splitting time behind the plate and at a first base last season. The 2010 second tea, NFCA All-American led the Sooners in batting average last season (.364) and was either first or second in most offensive categories behind two-time Big 12 Player of the Year Amber Flores. Shults brought in 62 runs last season and registered a .676 slugging percentage. Dani Dobbs anchors the defense at third base. The senior started 53 games at third a year ago and looks to start there again this year. The majority of her 20 hits last year came at critical times, resulting in 22 runs batted in for the Sooners. A pair of newcomers in Ali Vandever and Javen Henson look to battle it out for the spot at shortstop. Both come to OU with a variety of experience and look to make the most of a freshman year opportunity. The Outfielders The outfield is anchored by senior Haley Nix. As a junior college transfer Nix made the move from the infield to the outfield a year ago and has adjusted well. A second team All-Big 12 honoree form 2010, Nix provided the home run to capture the final Big 12 Championship for the Sooners. Her .320 batting average was one of the best on the team and her 11 home runs made her one of four players with double-digit home runs last year.
Also returning is sophomore Brianna Turang. Turang earned a starting spot in the outfield late last season and ended the year with 36 starts there. She had a .317 batting average with 19 runs scored. She also led the team in stolen bases, capitalizing on 20 of 25 attempts. Newcomer Destinee Martinez will see quality time in the outfield this year. The Team USA Junior National team member has a wide array of experience and her speed and placement provide what’s needed in a leadoff batter. After playing infield in high school, Haley McGregor will transition to the outfield this year. The Utility Players Oklahoma has a quartet of players that have the ability to do just about anything. All five can play several positions and provide several options in the batting order. Senior team captain Chana’e Jones returns to the infield to play second base after occupying the ooutfield for a majority of the past three seasons. Jones hit .271 a year ago and scored 27 runs. Also returning is Katie Norris. Norris has spent most of her time at OU as the designated player but has also seen time in the outfield and at first base. Norris was a second team All-Big 12 selection in 2010 and her .272 batting average was one of the team’s best. Norris drove in 32 runs last year and had four home runs. Newcomers Cierra Hughes, Kaci Quintero and Brittany Williams add depth to an already deep roster. Hughes is a speedy slapper who can play infield, while Quintero is an all-around utility player. Williams is expected to see time at first base or in the lineup as the designated player.

COACHES AND STAFF
PATTY GASSO A
PATTY GASSO
s she begins her 17th season at the University of Oklahoma, head coach Patty Gasso has molded the OU softball program into a national power and permanently placed herself among the elite college softball coaches in the country.
HEAD COACH 17TH SEASON LONG BEACH STATE, 1984 774-250-2 (.754) AT OU
The Sooners have reached the Women’s College World Series five times during her tenure, in the process, advanced to the postseason in each of her previous 16 seasons. The WCWS run began in 2000 when her team won the NCAA National Championship in OU’s first appearance. Is she the best coach in the history of Oklahoma softball? Undoubtedly.
THE GASSO FILE Is she the greatest coach in Big 12 history? The stats say she is. Could she be one of the best coaches to ever coach college softball? Each season, she continues to build what is a very strong argument. Currently in her 21st season as a head coach, Gasso has a career collegiate coaching record of 936-3092 (.751) and holds an overall record of 774-250-2 (.754) at the University of Oklahoma. She has won more Big 12 games (199-64) than any coach in the league’s history and has twice as many wins as any other coach in OU history. Gasso’s Sooner teams have finished second or higher 12 different times since the inception of the Big 12 in 1996. They have won 75 percent of their Big 12 contests and OU has claimed four Big 12 regular season and four championship titles under her direction. Numerous Sooner players have prospered under Gasso’s tutelage and garnered national, regional and conference recognition. She has directed 36 All-Americans, 80 All-Region honorees and 107 allconference selections. In the Big 12 era, seven Sooners have been named Big 12 Player of the Year, two have been selected as Big 12 Freshman of the Year, one as Big 12 Newcomer and Lauren Eckermann was named OU’s first Big 12 Pitcher of the Year in 2007. In 2010, Amber Flores became the first player in league history to earn Player of the Year honors twice. In addition, 2005 graduate Heather Scaglione was a two-time Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year. Savannah Long became the first infielder to earn the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year honor in 2008. Lindsey Vandever earned the award in 2010. The OU softball success under Gasso has also spilled over into the classroom where the Sooners have been honored with 78 academic all-conference honors. Six of those have gone on to become Academic All-Americans, including Lana Moran, the 2000 Academic All-American of the Year. Gasso and her staff have consistently been recognized for their efforts on and off the field. The staff was awarded three consecutive Speedline/NFCA Midwest Region Coaching Staff of the Year awards from 1999-2001 and received the national honor in 2000. Gasso and staff have claimed the Midwest honor in five of their 15 seasons with the most recent award coming in 2004. In addition, Gasso has been named the Big 12 and Midwest Region Coach of the Year in 1996, 1999 and 2000. She was named the 2009 Big 12 Coach of the Year. Gasso’s career with the Sooners began in 1995 when she arrived at OU after five successful years at Long Beach City College. Her accomplishments during her tenure at LBCC and since led to Gasso being named to the LBCC Hall of Champions in 2004. Later during the 2004 summer, Gasso was inducted into the inaugural class of the Long Beach City Baseball and Softball Hall of Fame. Her success in her hometown of Long Beach set the foundation for a spectacular career in Norman. Gasso was also inducted into the El Camino City College Hall of Fame in 2000. In her first season at the helm, the Sooners recorded a 43-23 record, finished second in the conference and reached the regional final. Several Sooners received awards for their play during the 1995 season, including 11 players who garnered all-conference accolades (four on the first team). Gasso and the Sooners reached new heights in 1996, recording a 50-20 record, a first-ever Big 12 Championship, and another regional final berth. OU dominated the inaugural Big 12 Tournament, putting five players on the all-tournament squad. Pitcher Jill Most was named the tourney MVP. Gasso’s 1996 squad also became the first team outside of the states of California or Arizona to win the prestigious Pony Tournament. Gasso was recognized by her peers for her team’s performance, earning the Big 12 Coach-of-the-Year award. Again, Sooner players were mentioned as some of the league’s best with 10 players receiving All-Big 12 recognition. 62 | 2011 OKLAHOMA SOFTBALL | FOUR REGULAR SEASON BIG 12 TITLES

PATTY GASSO Gasso continued the trend of reaching new heights in 1997 when the team recorded the then-second best record in school history (55-19). The season was highlighted by two impressive 12-game winning streaks that helped the team to a second-place finish in the Big 12. For the fourth consecutive year, OU advanced to a NCAA Regional. It marked the first time in school history that OU hosted the event. The 1998 season was probably one of Gasso’s best coaching jobs. However, it wasn’t because of the number of wins and losses or the tournaments won by the Sooners. It was due to the fact the team featured six freshmen. Gasso led the young group to a 49-15 record, a second-place conference finish and a No. 1 seed in a NCAA Regional. Five Sooners were named to the all-conference squad and three players were named to the All-Midwest Region team. In 1999, Gasso led OU to its sixth straight NCAA regional playoff appearance and her team continued to demonstrate that she is one of the top coaches in the country. Along the path to the regional playoffs in Baton Rouge, La., the Sooners seized several awards and honors. For the second time in the three-year history of the Big 12 Conference, OU was crowned regular season champion. The Sooners, who finished with a 40-16 overall record, won the Big 12 with an 11-3 record. Oklahoma fell just short of its goal, the Women’s College World Series, but the Sooners proved once again that they were a national powerhouse. That year, OU defeated several top-25 teams including Louisiana State, Texas, Massachusetts, Oregon, Texas A&M, Missouri and Nebraska. In addition, the Sooners swept the four-game series with state rival Oklahoma State. The last victory against the Cowgirls in the regular season finale clinched the Big 12 title.
Not only were Gasso’s players honored for their accomplishments in 1999, but she was also recognized for her solid coaching effort. Gasso was named the 1999 Big 12 Coach of the Year and joined her staff as the Midwest Regional Coaching Staff of the Year. The 2000 Sooners won their third Big 12 regular season title since the league began in 1996 and hosted their first NCAA Regional since 1997. Behind an explosive offense and a dominant defense, the Sooners rolled to a 66-8 record and won their final eight games of the season to capture the first softball national championship in school history. Four Sooners earned All-America honors, with Lisa Carey and Ashli Barrett earning first team recognition. Outfielder Erin Evans and pitcher Stewart were both third team All-Americans and Jennifer Stewart was named the Most Outstanding Player of the WCWS. The accolades rolled in as Gasso was named the Dallas Morning News Big 12 Coach of the Year. She and her staff also earned the Midwest Region Coach of the Year award and Speedline/NFCA Division I National Coaching Staff of the Year. Following the 2000 National Championship season, Gasso’s 2001 squad continued the string of success. The 2001 team went on to match many of the accomplishments of the previous year, including a return trip to the Women’s College World Series, a 50-win season and four All-America selections. The team also established its own successes by compiling a school-record 23-game win streak and the program’s first Big 12 Tournament title since 1996. In 2002, Oklahoma went 49-16 and 14-2 in the Big 12. Taking their team motto “Triple Threat” to heart, the Sooners swept their third consecutive NCAA Regional and advanced to a third straight Women’s College World Series.
The 2003 squad was led by five seniors and sophomore hurler Kami Keiter. OU reached its fourth consecutive WCWS by becoming the first Sooner squad to claim a regional championship away from Norman. OU ended the season with a 47-14 record and won one game before being eliminated from the 2003 WCWS. Five Sooners were named to the All-Big 12 Conference first team including senior Leah Gulla, who led the conference in batting average, hits and RBI. Underclassmen Keiter, Scaglione and Kristin Vesely joined senior Evans on the allconference team. The NFCA bestowed All-America honors on Keiter and Gulla, while Evans joined the duo on the Midwest Region Team. The OU program reached a couple of milestones during the 2003 season. The program recorded its 1,000th victory when the Sooners knocked off Bethune-Cookman in its regional opener on May 15. Justifying its nickname, the Sooners also became the first Big 12 team to reach the 100-win mark in conference play. OU beat Nebraska, 1-0, in Lincoln on March 20, 2003, to be the first squad to reach the century mark. The 2004 season went down as one of the most memorable in Sooner history. OU battled through injuries during the entire regular season and peaked at the right time. OU, seeded second in the NCAA Region I Championship, stormed through Tucson, Ariz., knocking off No. 1 Arizona and No. 9 Louisiana-Lafayette en route to the Sooners’ fifth consecutive WCWS. The Sooners entered the WCWS as the hottest hitting team in the postseason and held onto that recognition, despite being eliminated after winning their opener against Washington. Gasso’s staff was recognized for a fifth time as the NFCA Midwest Region Coaching Staff of the Year, thanks to one of the most memorable postseason runs in NCAA history.

MELYSSA LOMBARDI N
ow in her 14th season as a full-time coach, Melyssa Lombardi continues to guide the Sooner pitchers and catchers to even greater accomplishments. Lombardi was promoted to her current position of associate head coach in July 2007.
MELYSSA LOMBARDI ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH 14TH SEASON OKLAHOMA, 1997
Drawing from her playing days as a catcher for the Sooners from 1995-96, Lombardi has lent her valuable experiences in tutoring the Oklahoma catchers and pitchers. During her tenure, the Sooners won the 2000 National Championship and have won nine NCAA Regional Championships in 14 postseason appearances. In addition the Sooners have claimed three Big 12 regular season titles (1999, 2000, 2009) and three conference tournament championships (2001, 2007, 2010). A former all-conference catcher for the Sooners, Lombardi has also coached the Oklahoma battery to a combined 11 All-America honors, 22 All-Region accolades and 29 All-Big 12 selections during her time in Norman. In 2010, Lombardi guided freshman pitcher Keilani Ricketts to second team All-America honors. Senior catcher Lindsey Vandever earned second team All-Central Region accolades and the duo earned first team All-Big 12 honors. Vandever also became the third OU player to earn Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year. With a pitching staff of two sophomores and two freshmen, Lombardi aided OU in producing a 1.39 earned run average, a mark that was second best in the nation. Catcher Heather Scaglione earned two straight All-America first team honors in 2004 and 2005. The only two-time first team All-American in school history was also named the Big 12’s Defensive Player of the Year in those same years. Scaglione remains the only player in Big 12 history to receive the honor twice.

CAREER COACHING ACCOLADES The 2007 season was one of the most successful for the OU battery. The team posted a 55-8 overall record and Lauren Eckermann earned Big 12 Pitcher of the Year honors. Eckermann went on to be named an All-American and tied the school record for most wins in a season with 37. In 2008, pitcher D.J. Mathis and Vandever earned All-Midwest Region and All-Big 12 honors. Mathis also earned second team All-America honors and ranked among the nation’s best in several NCAA categories. Vandever and Mathis earned all-Big 12 honors in 2009 and were named to the NFCA All-Central Region team.

In 2004, Lombardi may have had her biggest challenge since joining the OU staff. The pitching coach had to hold together a staff that was missing its No. 1 and No. 2 pitcher for a combined total of 51 games. Despite the shortage of arms, the Sooners were the third best staff (in terms of ERA) in the Big 12. Lombardi’s protégé Kami Keiter turned it up another notch during the postseason when she garnered All-Big 12 Tournament and Region I Championship MVP honors.
Playing History 1995-96 ..........................................................................................University of Oklahoma 1993-94 ......................................................................................... Central Arizona College
In 2003, Lombardi guided Keiter out of the shadows of former Sooner great Jennifer Stewart and into stardom. In just her second collegiate season, Keiter led the Big 12 in wins (47) and was ranked in the NCAA top 15 in two pitching categories. The Sooner pitching staff combined for an ERA of 1.40, which ranked as the 18th best in the NCAA.

In her first year on the coaching staff as a student assistant in 1997, the OU pitching staff produced one of the lowest earned run averages in school history and in the country. The staff finished with a 1.14 ERA to rank seventh in the nation. The Sooners’ pitching performances continued to rank among the nation’s elite in 1998 and 1999 and the Sooners’ improvement culminated in 2000 with a national championship. In the national championship season, the team registered a 1.44 ERA which was good enough for second in the Big 12 and ranked 25th nationally. The staff posted 24 shutouts and its best strikeout total in three years with 301. Lombardi helped guide the one-two punch of Lana Moran and Stewart that year. Moran went 26-2 and led the Big 12 with a 1.28 ERA. Stewart was a third team All-America selection and the MOP of the Women’s College World Series. Lombardi also helped catcher Ashli Barrett reach new heights as the junior was named a first team All-American. The Glendale, Ariz., native ended her two-year Sooner playing career with a spectacular senior season in 1996. Her team-leading .345 batting average was a key factor during OU’s Big 12 Conference Championship run that year. She was also instrumental in helping Jill Most and Jennifer Jaime record two of the best pitching seasons in school history. Lombardi caught all three of Most’s wins in OU’s conference tournament games and was named to the all-tournament team after going 3-for-8 (.375) at the plate with four RBI, two runs scored, a triple and a stolen base. Lombardi graduated from Oklahoma in 1997 with a degree in health and sports science. She and her husband, John, were married on Nov. 10, 2000. The couple has one child, a son, Gianni Thomas. 66 | 2011 OKLAHOMA SOFTBALL | FOUR REGULAR SEASON BIG 12 TITLES

UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT D
avid L. Boren, who has served Oklahoma as governor and U.S. senator, became the thirteenth president of the University of Oklahoma in November 1994. He is the first person in state history to have served in all three positions. Boren is widely respected for his academic credentials, his longtime support of education, and for his distinguished political career as a reformer of the American political system. A graduate of Yale University in 1963, Boren majored in American history, graduated in the top one percent of his class and was elected Phi Beta Kappa. He was selected as a Rhodes Scholar and earned a master’s degree in politics, philosophy and economics from Oxford University, England, in 1965.
DAVID L. BOREN 13th PRESIDENT UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA
In 1968, he received a law degree from the University of Oklahoma College of Law, where he was on the Law Review, elected to the Order of the Coif, and won the Bledsoe Prize as the outstanding graduate by a vote of the faculty. As Oklahoma’s governor from 1974 through 1978, Boren promoted key educational initiatives that have had an enduring impact on Oklahoma. Established during his tenure were the Oklahoma Arts Institute, the Scholar-Leadership Enrichment Program, and the Oklahoma Physicians Manpower Training Program, which provides scholarships for medical students and medical personnel who commit to practice in underserved rural areas. Also, the first state funding for Gifted and Talented classes was provided in 1976 and, from 1976 through 1978, Oklahoma ranked first among all states in the percentage increases of funding for higher education. One of Boren’s most far-reaching projects in promoting quality education at all levels is the Oklahoma Foundation for Excellence, which he founded in 1985. The foundation recognizes outstanding public school students and teachers and helps establish private local foundations to help give academic endowment grants to local public schools. As a senator, he was the author of the National Security Education Act in 1992, which provides scholarships for study abroad and for learning additional languages, as well as legislation to restore the tax deductibility of gifts of appreciated property to universities in 1993. Boren, also a former state legislator, spent nearly three decades in elective politics before becoming the president of the University of Oklahoma. Boren was the youngest governor in the nation when he served from 1974 to 1978. Known as a reformer, Boren campaigned with a broom as his symbol. During his term, he instituted many progressive programs, including conflict-of-interest rules, campaign-financing disclosure, stronger open meeting laws for public bodies, more competitive bidding on state government contracts, and reform of the state’s prison system, including expanded education programs for first-time offenders and the largest expansion of the work-release program in state history. During his time in the U.S. Senate from 1979 to 1994, Boren served on the Senate Finance and Agriculture Committees and was the longest-serving chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. From his days as a state legislator and governor of Oklahoma to Washington, Boren carried a commitment to reform, leading numerous efforts to make government work better for American citizens. As chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, he strengthened oversight of secret government programs and reformed the procedures for Presidential notice of such programs to Congress. For more than 10 years, he led the fight for congressional campaign finance reform and for legislation discouraging administration and congressional staff from cashing in on government experience and contacts by becoming lobbyists. In addition, he introduced legislation seeking to limit gifts and travel subsidies that government workers, including members of Congress, can receive from lobbyists. Boren also chaired the special 1992-93 Joint Committee on the Organization of Congress, which produced proposals to make Congress more efficient and responsive by streamlining congressional bureaucracy, reducing staff sizes and reforming procedures to end legislative gridlock. Boren left the U.S. Senate in 1994 with an approval rating of 91 percent after being reelected with 83 percent of the vote in 1990, the highest percentage in the nation in a U.S. Senate contest in that election year. Boren served from 1988 to 1997 as a member of the Yale University Board of Trustees. His university experience also includes four years on the faculty of Oklahoma Baptist University, where he was chairman of the Department of Political Science and chairman of the Division of Social Sciences. In 1993, the American Association of University Professors presented Boren with the Henry Yost Award as Education Advocate of the Year. In April 2004, Boren received the Mory’s Cup from the Mory’s Association at Yale University. In making the presentation to Boren it was noted that he was the first Yale graduate in the university’s history extending over three centuries to have served as a Governor, U.S. Senator and President of a major university. Under Boren’s leadership, the University of Oklahoma has developed and emerged as a “pacesetter university in American public higher education,” with 20 major new programs initiated since his inauguration. They include establishment of the Honors College, the Charles M. Russell Center for the Study of Art of the American West, a new expository writing program for freshmen modeled on the program at Harvard, an interdisciplinary religious studies program, the Artist-in-Residence Program, the International Programs Center, and the Faculty-in-Residence Program putting faculty family apartments in student residence halls. The Retired Professors Program has been started, bringing 50 retired full professors back to the University to teach freshmen. 70 | 2011 OKLAHOMA SOFTBALL | FOUR REGULAR SEASON BIG 12 TITLES

The number of new facilities started or completed on the campus during the Boren years has matched the explosion in new programs. Since 1994, almost $1 billion in construction projects have been completed or are under way on OU’s three campuses. Among the largest of the recent projects are the $18.7 million renovation and expansion of historic Holmberg Hall, home of music and dance programs; the $67 million National Weather Center; the $19 million addition to the Michael F. Price College of Business; the $17 million Gaylord Hall for journalism and mass communication; the $27 million Stephenson Research and Technology Center; and the $83.5 million stadium project. The Health Sciences Center has a new Student Union, and the new $24 million Stanton L. Young Biomedical Research Center. Presidential Travel Scholarships, students from 111 countries on campus, more reciprocal international exchange agreements than any other university and the new International Programs Center are all making OU more international. The new Honors College helps to assure that no students need to leave Oklahoma to find an educational experience to match their potential. In 1995, Boren launched the “Reach for Excellence” fundraising campaign with a five-year goal of $200 million, which was twice as large as any fundraising drive in Oklahoma history. The drive exceeded $500 million, raising OU into the top 15 public universities in the United States in private endowment per capita. Since 1994, endowed professorships have more than quadrupled and the OU donor base has grown from 18,000 to more than 107,000 friends and alumni. During the first 10 years of Boren’s tenure over $1 billion in private gifts were donated to the university. Above all, the Boren years have been marked by an emphasis on putting students first. There is not a university president in the country that is more committed to students as his number one priority. He teaches a freshman-level course in political science each semester and is one of the few presidents of major universities to teach. Boren is married to Molly Shi Boren, a former judge and English teacher. Mrs. Boren is President Emeritus of the Oklahoma Arts Institute, which provides education programs in nine arts disciplines for high school students from across the state who are gifted in the arts. Molly Boren has two degrees from the University of Oklahoma, a master’s degree in English and a Juris Doctorate from the OU College of Law. A native of Seminole, Boren has two children, Carrie Christine Boren, an Episcopal minister, and David Daniel Boren, a member of the United States Congress from Oklahoma. Devoting much of his life to public service, Boren drew from the example of his parents, the late Congressman Lyle H. Boren and Christine Boren.
DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS JOE CASTIGLIONE DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA
In recognition of the performance of OU’s teams on the field and in the classroom, of the fiscal stability created during his tenure, the dramatic increases in donor giving, facility construction and renovations, and the cutting-edge programs that the department has begun during his tenure, Castiglione was named Athletic Director of the Year in May 2009 by the Sports Business Journal. That award was one of several earned by Castiglione and the department. The 2007 PRISM Award winner, presented by the School of Sports Management at the University of Massachusetts, OU was just the second Division I winner and all of the programs recognized by the selection panel were started under Castiglione’s leadership with the full support of university administration. His peers have honored him for the department’s achievements as well. In October 2004, the Bobby Dodd Foundation named him Athletics Director of the Year. In 2003, he was inducted into the National Association of Collegiate Marketing Administrators Hall of Fame. In June 2001, he received the General Robert R. Neyland Athletic Director Award for lifetime achievement from the All-American Football Foundation. The National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) named him Central Region AD of the Year in 2000. The achievement that may bring him the most pride, though, came in May 2007 when he completed his master’s of education degree from OU. To understand the need for education and lifelong learning, OU’s student-athletes just have to look at their AD who started and completed his master’s degree while running the department and maintaining his priorities to his family. He quickly put his experience to use as an adjunct professor in the College of Education, teaching a graduate class in Marketing & Development.
The Castigilione Family
Principle Centered Leader …Visionary ... Passionate Advocate for Student-Athletes ... Establishes Standards of Excellence & Cultural Values ... Builder of Championship Programs
T
he success of the University of Oklahoma Athletics Department is known throughout the world of intercollegiate athletics. The last decade may stand as one of the most successful in school history and leading that effort is Joe Castiglione, the Sooner AD since 1998. Castiglione’s Sooner team has worked to create a place where competitive dreams come true and academic goals are reached with regularity. Excellence is the norm at OU, and the Sooners’ sports programs, student-athletes, coaches and staff are committed to that standard. For Castiglione, though, it’s not just about the championships and trophies. The victories that he celebrates with his Sooners include graduation rates that continue to climb, record-setting grade point averages and academic honors. The true measure of achievement for Castiglione and, by extension, the department’s coaches and staff, is measured in the success of the student-athletes in relation to the department’s mission statement “Inspiring champions today … Preparing leaders for tomorrow” With the support of OU President David L. Boren and OU’s seven-member Board of Regents, Castiglione has gone about creating a climate that creates lofty goals, high standards and a commitment to ethical behavior that is second to none. Since arriving at OU in 1998 after an outstanding career at Missouri, Castiglione has seen the Sooners finish in the top 30 of the Learfield Director’s Cup in nine of the last 11 years. Through his insistence that daily and long-term decisions be made in a financially responsible manner, the department has closed the books in the black in each of the last 11 years. In 2009, the department increased its direct support of the academic mission of the University by increasing its annual commitment to $4 million dollars. Through direct and indirect support, OU Athletics, under Castiglione’s leadership, provides more than $7 million to OU Academics.
In his tenure, OU has celebrated seven national team championships and more than 40 conference team titles; record numbers of graduating student-athletes and record-setting grade point averages for Sooner teams; dramatically increased donor giving; huge increases in ticket sales for all sports; major facility improvements, and development and construction of new facilities. Castiglione was instrumental in the athletics department’s major campaign, Great Expectations: The Campaign For Sooner Sports. The campaign ended in November of 2003 with more than $125 million raised. The figure has grown to almost $200 million since then as funds continue to be raised for facility improvements and scholarship endowments. The largest fund-raising effort in OU athletics history includes projects that impact each of OU’s nearly 500 student-athletes and has become a national model for intercollegiate athletics. Hired on April 30, 1998, Castiglione joined the Sooner family after serving as athletics director at Missouri. In his 17-year career with the Tigers, Castiglione, who was named director of athletics at Missouri on Dec. 15, 1993, was credited with rebuilding sports programs, hiring outstanding coaches, implementing an innovative master plan for facilities, inspiring record-setting increases in fund-raising and balancing the budget in each of his five years as athletics director. A 1979 Maryland graduate, Castiglione received the University’s Distinguished Alumnus Award in April 2007. He began his career as the sports promotions director at Rice. He then worked a year as director of athletic fund-raising at Georgetown before being hired in 1981 at Missouri as director of communications and marketing. His commitment to the success of student-athletes has gone beyond the Norman campus and he has served at national and conference level. He chairs the NCAA’s Football Academic Progress Rate (APR) Working Group and is currently serving on the Gatorade Collegiate Advisory Board and the National Football Foundation and College Football Hall of Fame Board of Directors. He served two terms as chair of the Big 12 Board of Athletics Directors and is a past president of both the Division I-A Athletic Directors Association and NACDA. He served a four-year term on the NCAA Championship/Competition Cabinet and the NCAA Baseball Committee and is a past member of the NCAA Football Special Events Certification Committee. He recently served on the NCAA Diversity Leadership Strategic Planning Committee and the NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Discussion Group. A member of the Phi Delta Theta Foundation Board of Trustees, he is a highly requested speaker at annual conventions and continuing education institutes. A native of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., Castiglione is married to the former Kristen Bartel, a 1990 graduate of the University of Missouri. They are the parents of two sons, Joseph Robert, Jr. and Jonathan Edmund.
The 11th director of athletics in University of Oklahoma history, Castiglione is quick to give full credit to the student-athletes and coaches, the staff, OU President David L. Boren, the OU Board of Regents, the donors and the fans for the success experienced during his tenure. It was that commitment to a team approach emphasis that was one of the many qualities that that the search committee recognized when they recommended Castiglione to university administration in 1998.

ONE LAST TIME
SOONERS BOOKEND BIG 12 CHAMPIONSHIP WITH EVENT’S FINAL TITLE, MAKE SUPER REGIONALS
T
he 2010 season was a glimpse into the future of Sooner softball. And from all indications, the future is bright. With two seniors, six juniors, five sophomores and three freshmen, Oklahoma set it sights on a return trip home for the Women’s College World Series. In the end, they came up one game shy but along the way, left no doubt that the next time, things would be different. The season opened in a rain stricken Florida where OU went 2-1 in the three games finally played. The following weekend, OU swept through the competition at the Louisville Slugger Desert Classic, including a run-rule win over No. 12 California. The Sooners closed out the road stretch at the Cathedral City Classic, going 3-1 with the only loss to top-ranked Washington. Oklahoma went 10-1 leading up to a west coast trip
to take on Cal Northridge and play in the Judi Garman Classic in Fullerton. And after splitting a doubleheader in Northridge, the Sooners lost back-to-back games for the first time all year and ended the Garman 3-2. After closing out non-conference action on the road, OU went 3-1 before dropping a game at Oklahoma State on April 7. The loss to the Cowgirls was rare in the recent series history, and the Sooners bounced back, winning 11 of its last 12 entering the Big 12 Championship. The Sooners were on a mission. Since the series with Texas was rained out, OU finished in second in the league standings. It wasn’t how they wanted it to be decided. Oklahoma defeated Texas Tech and Texas A&M before run-ruling Missouri to win the final Big 12 Championship.
76 | 2011 OKLAHOMA SOFTBALL | FOUR REGULAR SEASON BIG 12 TITLES
It was fitting. After all, Oklahoma won the first Big 12 Championship title in 1996. OU won its ninth NCAA Regional title with sweeps of Syracuse and Fordham (twice). While the road to the WCWS ended in Seattle, what happened on that first night is something college softball fans won’t forget for a long time. OU defeated No. 3 seed and top-ranked Washington 6-1 on its home field. The Sooners hit five home runs, including three by Amber Flores, off two-time Collegiate Player of the Year Danielle Lawrie. The next day, the Huskies shutout the Sooners in back-to-back games, but the lessons learned, the experienced gained are valuable to a team that returns 10 letterwinners.

SOONERS FALL SHORT OF WCWS Shawna Wright hit a three-run home run and Danielle Lawrie struck out a season-high 17 batters as third-seeded Washington eliminated Oklahoma from the 2010 NCAA Championship on May 28 with a 4-0 win. The Huskies (507) won 3-0 to force a third and deciding game earlier in the evening. It was the first time Oklahoma dropped backtoback games since March 19. It was also the first time this season OU was shutout in back-to-back games. OU OPENS SUPERS WITH COMMANDING 6-1 WIN Amber Flores entered the NCAA Super Regional opener 0-for-10 in the last four games. None of it mattered in the top of the first inning when the senior gave Oklahoma an early 1-0 lead over defending national champion Washington. It was just the beginning for the14th-seeded Sooners as OU chased Husky starter Danielle Lawrie after five innings. Flores went yard three times, a first-ever for an Oklahoma player in a single game, and the Sooners took down the No. 3 seed Huskies, 6-1. Dani Dobbs and Jessica Shults each added solo home runs as the Sooners knocked eight hits and a season-high five earned runs off Lawrie en route to the win. Oklahoma’s five home runs set an NCAA Tournament record for the Sooners and were the most allowed by Lawrie in her career. Keilani Ricketts was perfect through 4.1 innings, allowing the fi st of her two hits to Jenn Salling on an infield single. She ended the game with just two hits, the other coming in the seventh inning. Ricketts walked three and struck out nine as she did not allow an earned run for the fifth straight game. FLORES TIES BIG 12 CAREER HOME RUN MARK Flores’ career home run total stands at 56, tying Texas A&M’s Megan Gibson (2005-08) for the Big 12 career record. She ended the game 3-for-3 with one walk in her fi nal plate appearance. Shults went 2-for-4 with the solo home run. SOONERS WIN NINTH NCAA REGIONAL TITLE The 14th-seeded University of Oklahoma softball team scored two unearned runs in the bottom of the fi fth inning to move past Fordham, 2-0, and advance to NCAA Super Regional play. The Sooners got a complete game shutout from Keilani Ricketts and capitalized on a miscue by the Rams to extend the fi fth allowing the runs to score. Ricketts struck out 11 batters, one shy of the Oklahoma NCAA Regional record held by Kami Keiter. Despite five walks, Ricketts allowed just two hits. Throughout the double-elimination bracket, Ricketts did not allow a single run as Oklahoma out-scored opponents 13-0. Pinch hitter Evan Sallis drew a leadoff walk in the fifth and moved to second on a sacrifi ce bunt by Amber Flores. Jessica Shults was intentionally walked before Haley Nix reached on a dropped fl y ball to left fi eld. The dropped ball resulted in Sallis scoring from second and should have been the third out of the inning. Shults then scored on a single up the middle by Ricketts to give OU a 2-0 lead. Shults ended the game 2-for-2 with two walks, one of them intentional. Starting her fi rst game at designated player since her freshman season, junior Chana’e Jones went 2-for-3. The Sooners appeared in their
13th NCAA Regional final under head coach Patty Gasso and won the program’s ninth regional championship. Oklahoma opened with a 10-0 five-inning win over Syracuse and dropped Fordham 1-0 to advance to the regional fi nal. SOONERS CAPTURE BIG 12 CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE The University of Oklahoma softball team continued its winning ways May 16 as the Sooners got a team eff ort to roll past Missouri, 9-0 in six innings at ASA Hall of Fame Stadium. OU earned its fourth Big 12 Championship title in the event’s fi nal season. Freshman pitcher Keilani Ricketts was named the tournament’s Most Outstanding Player and three additional Sooners - seniors Lindsey Vandever and Amber Flores and freshman Jessica Shults were named to the all-tournament team. Krystle Huey set a new single game high, going 4-for-4 in the leadoff position. Huey scored three runs also tying a single game best. Vandever’s only hit was a three-run home run. Haley Nix ended the game 2-for-3 with her biggest shot being a walk-off three-run home run. Ricketts allowed three hits and struck out 11 batters. HOME RUN DERBY OU hit 69 home runs and of those, 43 scored multiple runners (17 two-run home runs, 20 three-run home runs and six grand slams). Of the 26 solo home runs, 10 were leadoff home runs. Jessica Shults led the team with 14 on the year, including two grand slams. Lindsey Vandever had two grand slams for the Sooners this season and 11 total home runs. Amber Flores had 12 and Haley Nix had 11. FLORES, RICKETTS TOP 25 FINALISTS Amber Flores and Keilani Ricketts were named to the Amateur Softball Association’s top 25 finalist list for the 2010 Collegiate Player of the Year. This award, which is considered the most prestigious honor in Division I women’s collegiate softball, is designed to recognize outstanding athletic achievement by female collegiate softball players across the country. FLORES SELECTED IN NPF DRAFT Amber Flores was selected by the USSSA Pride in the 2010 National Pro Fastpitch Senior Draft on Feb 10. Flores was taken fi fth overall with the fi rst pick in the second round. OU, UA RANKED IN EVERY NFCA POLL The Sooners have been ranked in the NFCA poll since its inception, which spans 225 weeks. Oklahoma and Arizona are the only programs who have been ranked every week the poll has been released. VANDEVER NAMED TEAM CAPTAIN Lindsey Vandever was named team captain for the 2010 softball season. The team selected the captain based on characteristics such as work ethic, positive attitude and consistency both on and off the field.

POLL HISTORY Oklahoma is one of only two programs to be ranked every week of the National Fastpitch Coaches’ Association Coaches’ poll. The Sooners entered the rankings at No. 16 in the first poll on January 24, 1995. They have not dropped out since - 225 straight weeks. The Sooners have earned their first top ranking after winning the National Championship in 2000. Oklahoma’s average finish is 10.6. Likewise, the Sooners have been ranked every week of the USA Softball poll, dating back to the 2003 season. Oklahoma formally recognizes the NFCA poll as its poll of choice.

The University of Oklahoma Women’s Softball team has become one of the most successful programs in the country. We would like to invite you to join our “commitment to excellence” by enrolling in our camps. You will have the opportunity to work daily with myself, my outstanding coaching staff, current and past OU Softball players, plus a variety of elite college and high school coaches that share the OU Softball philosophy. You will have a great time at camp, but most of all you will walk away with knowledge of this wonderful game. You will participate and learn all phases of the game: from offensive and defensive drills, to pitching and catching, base running, strength and conditioning, plus agility. You will have the opportunity to play in competitive games daily.
JUNE 19-22 AGES 8-18
The goal of this camp is to prepare you for your future in softball. We have fun by challenging each other and working hard. You will experience the “blue collar” style of play that has been the Sooners trademark to success.
