California Collegiate Athletics Association

To be the best in the conference in any facet of the game is an ultimate achievement, but to be the best in areas that are regularly the deciding factor between a win and a loss are genuinely Hall of Fame worthy. Cal State Monterey Bay's Cori Reinhardt can make that claim above all others as she is the first and only student-athlete to earn CCAA Pitcher of the Year and CCAA Player of the Year honors in the same season.
 
From her freshman season, she excelled on the diamond for the Otters, earning the 2012 CCAA Freshman of the Year honor and a spot on all three All-America teams. She led the conference with a .462 batting average and a .517 on-base percentage. She also went 23-4 in the circle with a 2.26 earned run average and a .219 opponent batting average.
 
Reinhardt would only get better over her next two seasons. She earned multiple all-region honors and collected her first CCAA Player of the Year and All-West Region Player of the Year awards in 2014 after hitting .327 with 35 RBI and going 21-9 with a 2.20 ERA. Her culminated in an All-America selection, but it was nothing compared to what would come in the 2015 season.
 
During her senior campaign, the Riverside native hit .417 to register a .400 batting average for the third time in her career. She had 43 RBI, with 51 runs scored and a 1.090 OPS. She walked twice as many times as she struck out (39-20) and registered a 19-game hitting streak. As a pitcher, she set a CSUMB record with 30 wins (30-4) and had a 1.81 ERA.
 
Reinhardt is still ranked among the CCAA all-time pitching leaders in career wins (eighth, 86), saves (ninth, 8), and innings (third, 382.0). She is also eighth all-time in batting average (.409), seventh in doubles (54), sixth in on-base percentage (.494), fifth in walks (108), and third in RBI (168). Her 44 games of reaching base safely is still the third-longest in conference history.
