2024 Softball Roster - California Golden Bears Athletics (calbears.com)

Seven (7) of the twenty-four players are pitchers! I cannot add properly anymore.
GO BEARS!

Fall ball should be fun! Orange and Roelling seem like crucial missing pieces from last season... and we definitely got faster

Power is going to be the big question mark.

CF, do you recall whether Ryann Orange is a southpaw or RHP? I saw a couple of pictures of her batting and running the bases. GO BEARS!

RHP. Roelling is a lefty

Our move to the ACC is going to provide college softball fans with some fun matchups-Duke, Florida State, Clemson. I hate what happened to the Pac 12.... but looking forward to this.

Cal could very well win a ACC Softball title in their inaugural year in that conference. They have at least 15 teams that play softball, so no round robin. Play 27 games, in 3 game series, so at least 4 cross country trips. And won't likely play FSU, Clemson, or Duke every year.

Stanford's elite pitching should enable them to be competitive, too. As CF stated, it should be quite interesting beginning in 2024. GO BEARS!

Great opportunities to see the team at LFF!

Photos are in for Cal's twenty-four player roster! No bios provided for the newbies, yet.

Alana Vawter transfered to S. Carolina but they still got a couple great arms coming in.

Really fun interview with Coach Spencer. Starts at the 15:30 mark. Excited for this season to start.

She definitely has the fire. Like she said, some people may not like it but that is who she is. " Poor teams have no leader, good teams have their coaches lead, great teams their players lead." Love it.!! Go Bears !! can't wait to see how their pitching is. their hitting continues to get better each year. will see how fall season is.

Cal Fanatic, what do you feel about the new coaching staff? I feel it is an upgrade especially for pitching.

A large portion of that interview directly talks about this perceived upgrade. Seems like it's a consensus from the hosts to the Coach.

Not sure how you can bring in someone like O'Toole and not have it be considered an upgrade…

Love this interview! Thank you for sharing.

Coach Spencer's passion and knowledge are top notch! She has me fired up for this season!!

Go Bears!!!

Chelsea is feeling good and appears ready to rock 'n roll! It should be fun to watch the changes that take place due to the new coaching staff this season. GO BEARS!

When you look at who we bring in... you can make an easy argument pitching is better, a pretty good argument defense is better but hard to do the same with the offense. We lost a ton of power.

Who knows. Anders and Butler could end up pulling 15-20 homerun seasons. Bell, Johnson and Bishop could be fully healthy and hit 10+ homeruns. That's why you play the game!

I really think pitching is the key. Consistent good pitching ..someone who is reliable every time she goes out to the mound. Hitting I don't think will be a problem even after losing many of better hitters. Really excited for this season.

It looks like Cal will open the season against (likely) ranked ULL. Talk about an early test!
