Boy, that Cat Osterman sounds like she may be the next Jennie Finch. She's a 6-3 southpaw with a boatload of accolades to her name, including:

2005 International Sports Invitational Champion
2005 ESPY Nominee for Top Collegiate Female Athlete
2005 NCAA Honda Award Winner for Softball
2005 USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year
2005 Big 12 Tournament Champion
2004 Gold medalist at Athens Olympic Games
2003 Gold medalist at Pan American Games
2003 ESPY Nominee for 'Top Collegiate Female Athlete'
2003 USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year
2003 Big 12 Pitcher of the Year

That's an awesome career. I wonder... any pro softball leagues for her to play in?

[Gotham Dark Knight]

Yeah, I remember her pitching in the Olympics...she's pretty darn good.


MEDIA EXPOSURE
The Sooners will appear on national television for the fourth time in a week as OU and Texas will square off on ESPNU (DirecTV Ch. 609) Friday night followed by a nationally televised game on ESPN (Cox Channel 29, OKC) Saturday. Pam Ward (play-by-play) and Lisa Fernandez (color) will be the analysts for both games.

BTW, Cat is 25-1 this year in 30 appearances and +175 IP

[Gotham Dark Knight]

Oh...and a whopping 392 strikeouts...that's 15.7 per innings pitch...batter up anyone?

HAHA o dont worry i have plenty of that! I was telling my friend bout this website and she keeps telling me how wierd i am for being obsessed with softball... I was randomly searching for this stuff at school when i was bored and i found it and i got sooo excited it wasnt even funny

Cat Osterman is soooo cool. I love the way she stays close with her fans and remains accessable to them even though she is a superstar in her sport.

Cat Osterman is sweet! I would love to do her laundry after one of her complete game victories!
