2011 Season Outlook The 2011 Ottawa University® softball team’s goal, to capture a second straight KCAC Champship and to qualify for the NAIA Softball National Tournament for the second straight season. That goal is within their reach with the returning of five starters on defense, their top two pitchers, and a strong belief that they can accomplish their goal. Pitching The Lady Braves return their top two pitchers from last year, junior Ashley Renaldi and sophomore Morgan Beckler. Both were named All-KCAC last season with Beckler being named to the first team and Renaldi picking up second team honors. Beckler was also named KCAC Newcomer of the Year. Overall the depth is the best that the OU softball program has had according to head coach Jay Kahnt, “I can go four or five deep this year and feel comfortable with whoever is on the mound.” Infield The Lady Braves lose a four year starter and a four-time All-KCAC selection at
shortstop, Ashley Mundy to graduation but Kahnt feels that with the returners they should be able to fill the void. “We have our first baseman, second baseman, and our third baseman returning and all three of those are upper classmen. We also have two good sophomores competing for that shortstop position so we feel that our infield will be a strength and that we should have one of the top overall defenses in our conference.” Outfield The OU outfield did lose an All-KCAC performer in right field but returns OU’s first NFCA All-American in program history, Lindsey Tuter in left field. She also earned NFCA First Team All-Midwest and was named First Team All-KCAC. Returning at center field is NFCA Second Team All-Midwest and First-Team All-KCAC selection, Myah Sprew. “Both Lindsey and Myah have great speed and can cover the outfield as well as anybody,” said Kahnt. “We have a couple of other girls competing for the right field position that have above average speed so not too many balls should get by our outfielders. Catchers There is a good competition going on between transfer Lyndsay Swafford, returner Michelle Bowman and freshman Carrie Wilson. The Lady Braves did lose Lori Ewalt to graduation last year but Kahnt feels that these three ladies will step up to take her place. “Lori was a great leader and her leadership on and off the softball diamond will be missed but we feel that with the three catchers that are vying for the job we will be able to find her replacement.”

Offense Again like last year the Lady Braves will

Myah Sprew be very fast and try to steal bases. “Our philosophy is to play the small ball, get some extra base hits, and do the little things to win the game,” said Kahnt. Schedule The 2011 schedule will get the Lady Braves ready for the KCAC. OU will play Sooner Athletic Conference opponents Southern Nazarene University, which is receiving votes in the NAIA Softball Coaches Preseason Top 25 Poll, and Oklahoma Christian University, who defeated no. 23 ranked Baylor University last season. “The Sooner Athletic Conference might be the best softball conference in the country in the NAIA,” said Kahnt. “By playing those teams we are getting a taste of what we will be facing at nationals.” The Lady Braves will play the 21st ranked Pioneers of MidAmerica Nazarene University twice this season. “MidAmerica is the defending HAAC Champions and a national tournament team from last year. They will be a good test for us.” The Lady Braves will also play tough competition in the form of Mount Mercy College, William Jewell College and national tournament qualifier, Bellevue University.

After finishing in the top three the previous four seasons at the KCAC Tournament, the Lady Braves finally broke through. OU went undefeated in tournament play and defeated the defending champions, Friends University, 3-1 in the championship game. OU would of had a tougher road to hoe if it wasn’t for the semifinal heroics of Kadie Berlin. With OU down 2-0 to Bethany College in the semifinals, Berlin hit a walkoff homerun in the bottom of the ninth with two runners on. It was her first and only homerun of the season and it pushed OU to the finals versus Friends.
