CEDAR FALLS –<\/strong> Former 51ÁÔÆæ softball standout Katy Olive received a handful of honors Tuesday night from 51ÁÔÆæ coaches Matt Egger and Morgan Frost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the Trojans scrimmaged the University of Northern Iowa, Egger and Frost presented Olive with her TUCCI\/NFCA Player of the Year award, New Balance\/NFCA NJCAA DII Golden Shoe award and NFCA first-team all-American award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Katie’s overall athletic talent is second to none,” 51ÁÔÆæ coach Matt Egger said last spring. “Winning the Golden Shoe award (nations best in stolen bases) twice, 1st Team All-American, NJCAA Region II Offensive Player of the Year and National Player of the Year tops off a remarkable career. I’m just glad she chose 51ÁÔÆæ so we didn’t have to play against her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“She does naturally have tons of power and can really run but those awards she has won is a testament to her work ethic. I haven’t seen many people put the work in (on and off the field ) like Katy did these last two years.  She really bought into what we are trying to do with the program.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the 2024 season, Olive hit .472 and was ranked tied for third in NJCAA DII with 27 home runs to go along with 20 doubles, 81 RBI, 92 base hits and 95 runs scored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the base paths, Olive led NJCAA DII with 70 stolen bases in 75 attempts. Olive swiped four bases on three separate occasions and registered three steals three times. Olive’s hits, runs scored, RBI and steals are all single-season program records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On 51ÁÔÆæ’s career lists, Olive ranks first in home runs (41), stolen bases (133), runs scored (168) and at-bats (363). She ranks second in hits (154), RBIs (122) and walks (54).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also ranks fourth in career doubles (33) and seventh in career batting average (.424).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
