Former UCCS softball player Becki Pepper joined the Mountain Lions staff for the 2009-10 season. Pepper, who graduated from UCCS in 1998, held school records for batting average, home runs, RBIs, doubles, stolen bases, hits, runs and at bats. Even today, she still ranks among the top 10 in each of the listed categories. UCCS softball head coach Scott Peterson was impressed with her extensive experience as a coach at the local level as both a high school and competitive coach. Pepper worked for four years at Rampart High School, two years at Lewis-Palmer High School and nearly two years at Liberty High School.
