2003 -- As a junior, Meashintubby’s hard work, patience and positive attitude all paid off as she found her stride at the end of the season to carry the Ducks to a sweep of Washington in Seattle, picking up the 6-5 win in the second game of the series. It was her first career Pac-10 win and helped Oregon win the series vs. the Huskies for the first time since 1993. Meashintubby picked up her seventh career shutout in a 10-0 season-opening win vs. Texas A&M Corpus Christi and is now tied for seventh all-time at Oregon. Took over the reigns as the Ducks’ go-to pitcher in the postseason, going 2-0 with wins over Penn State and San Diego State en route to finishing second overall at the Fullerton NCAA regional with a 0.84 ERA while adding 16 strikeouts to bring her career total to 228 ? sixth all-time at Oregon. With eight wins on the season, including a victory over then-No. 5 California one week after the Washington win, Meashintubby now ranks 10th all-time at Oregon with 21 career victories. Had a season-best seven strikeouts on two occasions ? vs. Houston and Nevada ? and posted the lowest season ERA of her career (2.05).
2002 -- Continued to make great strides during her second season of extended play and finished the season as Oregon's leader in ERA (2.41) and strikeouts (93).

Ended the season with a team-high five shut outs and had 11 games with five or more strikeouts. Had a career-high eight strike outs vs. Portland State April 22 in perhaps her best outing of the season (7IP, 3 hits, OER 2BB, 8K). Had her best Pac-10 performance against Oregon State March 29, finishing the game with five strikeouts and two earned runs in six innings pitched.
