The award was presented as part of the 61st Oregon Sports Awards, held at the Tiger Woods Center on the Nike World Headquarters campus.

With Doucette in the lineup, Linfield won one NCAA crown (2011) and played in the national title game two other times (2010, 2012).

She set a program record with 201 career starts from 2009 until 2012, during which time the Wildcats amassed 178 victories against just 23 defeats, won four Northwest Conference championship and three regional titles.

Doucette completed her bachelor’s degree in history last May and is currently serving as an assistant softball coach at Linfield.
