A former Louisiana Ragin Cajun Softball great who was recently inducted into the UL Athletics Hall of Fame, recently stepped down from her most recent head coaching position.
Stephanie DeFeo stepped down as the head coach at Mercer last week, after five seasons on the job.
A member of the Ragin Cajuns softball team from 1994-97, DeFeo went on to earn All-America honors three times, playing first base and designated player, before leaving with a school-record 43 home runs, including 15 in her senior season of 1997, while driving in 187 career runs.
DeFeo was tabbed an All-American after her freshman season in 1994 when she hit .435 on the season while setting a school-record in slugging percentage at .739.
