Softball sets sights on returning to top of Southland Conference this spring Courtesy: UTSA Athletics Release: 02/04/2009 Krista Is my 21 year old Stud Softball player .Please feel free to check her out all season at UTSA.com Go Runners Lori Cook, who owns the highest winning percentage in school history, begins her fourth year as head coach in 2009. With eight letterwinners returning, including four all-conference performers in senior outfielder Leanne Risberg, junior second baseman Rudi Cantu, junior first baseman Krista Sitka and sophomore pitcher/utility player Danyé Holmes, and a promising group of nine newcomers on campus, prospects for the 2009 UTSA softball season are high. Sitka has become a familiar face at first base, starting 106 games at the bag the past two seasons. She collected honorable mention All-SLC accolades last year after hitting .270 — .297 in conference games — with 41 hits, six doubles, seven home runs and a team-high 34 RBIs. Also an excellent fielder, the Dobie High product has a career .987 fielding percentage and ranks sixth all-time at UTSA with 626 putouts. “Sitka is as solid as we’ve ever had defensively at first base,” Cook said. “When she makes an error, it really catches your eye because it’s so rare. She’s a rock for us on the infield and may be our best clutch hitter at the plate. She really produced with the bat in her second year and the most amazing part was that she batted behind Danyé for most of the season, which is no easy task. She was very relaxed and confident at the plate in the fall, so we expect her to have an even better spring.”
