Welcome to The Gold Standard Podcast. Today’s guest is my former teammate Cat Osterman, a former three-time National Player of the Year, four-time All-American, and two-time Olympic medalist. She also served as coach for the Texas State Bobcats in San Marcos, Texas, from 2015-20, after three seasons in a similar role for the St. Edwards Hilltoppers in Austin, Texas.


Cat helped to lead the University of Texas to three Women’s College World Series appearances in 2003, 2005 and 2006. She also became the only softball individual to win USA Softball’s National Player of the Year honors three times after earning the honor each of those seasons. These are just a few of her achievements.

Join us as we talk about pushing past your limits, doing something you love, and living life according to The GOLD Standard.

“Do whatever it takes even if it means you're gonna be an oddball.”
