Hall of Fame
Diane Trewin was one of the groundbreaking athletes during the first years of women's intercollegiate athletics at UChicago in the late 1960s and early 1970s. As an undergraduate, she was a four-sport starter in softball, basketball, volleyball and badminton. Trewin particularly excelled on the softball diamond, where she served as the team's natural leader at catcher. She entered the program in its inaugural season under Hall of Fame head coach Pat Kirby in 1968. Behind the plate, Trewin showcased a top-notch arm that cut down runners on the base paths along with reflexive ability to block and corral errant pitches. At bat, she displayed superior bat control combined with extra-base power.
