Stacy Piagno (born March 7, 1991) is a member of the United States women's national baseball team which won a gold medal at the 2015 Pan American Games.
Piagno played college softball at the University of Tampa. On July 23, 2015, Piagno threw the first no-hitter in women’s baseball at the Pan Am Games, in Toronto, defeating the Puerto Rican team. In June, 2016, she was signed by the professional Sonoma Stompers, one of the teams in the Pacific Association of Professional Baseball Clubs. This made her, and fellow Stompers teammate outfielder-pitcher Kelsie Whitmore the first women to play professional baseball on a team with more than one woman since the 1950s.
