Anderson Joins PC Softball Program

CLINTON, S.C. – Presbyterian College head softball coach Dave Majeski announced the signing of Katie Anderson recently. Anderson joins the PC Softball program from North Augusta High School in North Augusta, S.C.

Coached by Derek Quinn at North Augusta, Anderson comes to the Blue Hose softball program as a first baseman.

“We are extremely excited about bringing someone of Katie’s caliber into our program,” noted Majeski. “She is not just a stellar athlete, but a tremendous student and I feel that she will fit in nicely in the Presbyterian College community. We expect great things from Katie over the next few years.”

Anderson was the team captain at North Augusta for the past two seasons. She earned all-region plaudits the past two years and was also awarded the great leader and outstanding defensive player award by Quinn.

A member of the Beta Club and the National Honor Society, Anderson enters the PC softball program under second-year head coach Dave Majeski with many North Augusta softball records, including most hits in a single contest (5), most doubles in a single game (4) and highest career fielding percentage (.983).

In 83 at-bats in the 2007 season, Anderson finished the year with 29 RBIs, seven doubles and one home run. In total in her four years at North Augusta, Anderson concluded things with exactly 100 RBIs, 29 doubles and six home runs.

Anderson also finished her time at North Augusta with a batting average of .339.
