Sis Bates might be the best defensive shortstop the college game has produced. She is a three-time Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year, a two-time First-Team All-American, Washington's all-time hits leader at a .385 clip, and ESPN named her the greatest college shortstop of all time in 2020. A U.S. national team member and the glove that anchors the Cascade infield.
How she got here: Legal name Nicole Lynn Bates.
