DALLAS (AM News Net)  –  After being nominated earlier this month for the title of the Big 12 Female Athlete of the Year, sophomore pitcher Paige Parker has won the award, making it the sixth time ever in the Big 12 that the same college won the award.

Parker currently holds the record for the amount of wins in D1 softball. The sophomore Sooner finished with 38 wins this past season, ten more than in her freshman year. She unseated Erica Romero from San Diego State University, who lead with 36 wins. Parker's ERA dropped from 1.65 to 1.64 from last year as well. Parker also led the team to victory in the final game of the 2016 Women's College World Series, defeating Auburn 2-1 to become national champions, their second title in three years.

She is also the 2016 Big 12 Pitcher of the Year for the second season in a row.

Buddy Hield, a basketball player for the Sooners, won the male award as well.
