|
||
WHEREAS, University of North Texas softball player Hope | ||
Trautwein earned a place in the school's record books with her | ||
flawless pitching performance on April 11, 2021; and | ||
WHEREAS, Taking the mound for the opening game of a | ||
doubleheader at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff, | ||
Ms. Trautwein threw the first perfect game in UNT softball history, | ||
striking out all 21 batters she faced in the 3-0 win; she allowed no | ||
walks and no hits and delivered what is believed to be the first | ||
unblemished NCAA Division I seven-inning performance in which every | ||
out was a strikeout; moreover, her accomplishment marked only the | ||
second perfect game ever recorded in Conference USA softball | ||
competition; and | ||
WHEREAS, Ms. Trautwein has now hurled three collegiate | ||
no-hitters, and she has also struck out 21 batters in a single | ||
contest on three occasions; she leads UNT in numerous statistical | ||
categories and is an All-Conference First Team selection; a former | ||
standout player at Hendrickson High School in Pflugerville, she was | ||
a two-time All-District pick and was selected as the league Pitcher | ||
of the Year in 2017 after leading the Hawks to the regional | ||
quarterfinals of the state playoffs; and | ||
WHEREAS, By achieving the rare feat of throwing a perfect | ||
game, Hope Trautwein has distinguished herself as one of the top | ||
pitchers in college softball, and she may indeed reflect with pride | ||
on a job well done; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the 87th Legislature of the State of Texas | ||
hereby congratulate Hope Trautwein on pitching a perfect game in | ||
which she struck out all 21 opposing batters and extend to her | ||
sincere best wishes for continued success as a member of the | ||
University of North Texas softball team; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for Ms. Trautwein as an expression of high regard by the | ||
Texas House of Representatives and Senate. | ||
