Cathy’s career numbers are some of the best in program history.
 
She holds the highest career slugging percentage in Messiah history with a mark of .760, as well as the second highest batting average (.465), on-base percentage (.503), and career triples (15). In 1991, Cathy put together her best all-around season with a .567 batting average and .872 slugging percentage, both the highest single-season marks in program history.
