|
|
||
| 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. | ||
