CATHERINE HOU
An incoming freshman at Palisades High, Catherine led her Santa Monica Fastpitch 14U Gold All-Star team to the USA Softball Southern California State Championship in Lancaster, blasting a three-run home run in the third inning of the final game against Capo. Santa Monica eventually won 8-6 in extra innings and improved to 32-2 this season. The Riviera resident played second base and went 6-for-13 at the plate over the three-day tournament, hitting for the cycle with three singles, one double, one triple and a homer.
