Julie Croteau
Julie Croteau is recognized as the first woman to play men’s NCAA baseball, as well as the first woman to coach men’s NCAA Division I baseball. She is one of two women to ever play in an Major League Baseball-sanctioned winter league, and her baseball glove and photo are on permanent display at the Baseball Hall of Fame〔 in Cooperstown, New York.
==Playing career==
In 1988, Croteau sued Osbourn Park High School in Manassas, Virginia for the right to play on the boys' baseball team in 1988, but lost:〔 the court ruled that she had "received a fair tryout and that the decision to cut her was made in good faith and for reasons unrelated to gender."〔(Croteau v. Fair ), 686 F. Supp. 552, 554 n.3. (1988); see also id. at n.4 ("Although there was no persuasive evidence here of discrimination, there was abundant evidence, accepted by the Court, that plaintiff is a fine athlete and a dedicated baseball player. But the competition for a place on the Osbourn Park varsity team was keen. For reasons wholly unrelated to gender, plaintiff did not succeed. The Court notes, however, that plaintiff's ability, industry and determination promise that in the future she will succeed more often that not in whatever endeavors she undertakes.").〕 At St. Mary's College of Maryland (Division III), she made the men's baseball team as a freshman walk on. She received national media attention for this accomplishment. After playing in college, Croteau attended graduate school at Smith College and continued her career by coaching men's NCAA baseball at Western New England University (Division III) and then at the University of Massachusetts Amherst (Division I).
Croteau was a baseball double for actress Anne Ramsay, who portrayed first basewoman Helen Haley, in the 1992 Columbia Pictures film ''A League of Their Own''.
