No one has struck out more batters or won more games in an Oregon uniform than three-time All-American pitcher Cheridan Hawkins. A three-time Academic All-American off the diamond, her career totals of 108 wins and 1,081 strikeouts remain the program standards a decade after her final pitch. She is also the Ducks’ career leader in shutouts (33) and saves (17). She threw a program-best seven no-hitters, including a perfect game against Washington in 2015. In addition to owning the career strikeouts record, she also set the program records for strikeouts in a season, 330 in 2015, and strikeouts in a game when she fanned 18 batters Feb. 14, 2014, against UNLV. In her career, Hawkins went 108-20 with a 1.66 earned run average. Hawkins’ teams won four consecutive Pac-12 championships between 2013-16 and advanced to the Women’s College World Series twice. Hawkins was named first-team All-Pac-12 and Pac-12 All-Freshman her first season in Eugene in 2013. She made 19 starts in 31 appearances with a 19-5 record, 212 strikeouts and a 1.55 ERA in 140.1 innings pitched. Hawkins was named the Pac-12 Pitcher of the Year and first-team All-America as a sophomore after going 35-6 with a 1.66 ERA in 50 appearances over 249.1 innings pitched. She tossed 24 complete games with 12 shutouts as she set the program record with 330 strikeouts. The single-game record of 18 strikeouts against UNLV also happened in her sophomore season. Hawkins repeated as a first-team All-American and Pac-12 Pitcher of the Year as a junior, when she won 30 games against five losses and struck out 282 batters. She earned her third straight Pac-12 Pitcher of the Year award and All-America honors as a senior when she won 25 games and struck out 257. She still owns three of the top four single-season strikeout marks in program history. Hawkins also played at both the junior and senior levels for Team USA during her time at Oregon.
