National Girls and Women in Sports Day
Keynote Speaker: Julie Croteau
Julie Croteau has dedicated her life to helping women and girls find opportunities
in baseball. Croteau, 26, fought her first battle as a 12th grader, in 1988,
when she sued Osborne Park High in Manassas, Va., because it didn't allow
girls to play baseball. Though she lost the case, she went on to become the
first woman to play NCAA baseball, in '89, when she played first base for
Division III St. Mary's (Md.) College. She also became the first woman to
coach Division I baseball, as an assistant at Massachusetts in '95-96. What
she's really proud of, though, is the fact that the glove she used in college
now resides at the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y.
