The United States women's national softball team is the national softball team of the United States. It is governed by the United States' Amateur Softball Association and takes part in international softball competitions. The US team has been dominant in international play, taking the gold medal in three straight Olympics and seven straight world championships. They won the silver medal at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. In the 2004 Olympics the team held its opponents to one run scored in 7 games. The lone run came in a 5-1 victory over the Australian team. It was the first run scored by an opponent against the US softball team in 9 games.
On March 26, 2008, the United States Olympic softball team had their 185-game winning streak snapped in a no-hitter thrown by Virginia Tech's pitcher Angela Tincher, who struck out 10 batters in a 1-0 exhibition win for the Hokies. The no-hit win proved something extra special in this case, as Tincher had previously tried out and failed to make the 2008 US Olympic softball team.
The roster of the 2017 USA national softball team is listed below.
Head Coach: Ken Eriksen (Tampa, Fla.. – Head Coach at the University of South Florida)
Full Time Assistant Coaches: Laura Berg (Corvallis, Ore. - Head Coach at Oregon St.), Howard Dobson (Baton Rouge, Lou. - Assistant Coach at LSU), Lisa Dodd (Las Vegas, Nev. - Head Coach at UNLV)
