Tammy Lohmann begins her fifth year of service with the California softball program this season.
Because of her assistance in the development of the Cal hitters, the Golden Bears produced team records in home runs (49) and runs (322) in 2007, and RBI (279) in 2008.
Since Lohmann's arrival, Cal hitters have garnered 21 all-conference selections, including Valerie Arioto, who earned all-conference and all-region honors after placing in the top 5 in several offensive categories in Pac-10 play as a freshman in 2008.
Prior to her arrival in the Bay Area, Lohmann was an assistant coach at Wisconsin, helping guide the Badgers to three straight NCAA Regional appearances. She coached numerous all-conference and regional players with the Badgers. Wisconsin hitters posted a record-breaking offensive season in 2005, setting multiple school records.
As a player, Lohmann was a two-time all-conference selection at Arizona State and was team captain for the 1997 season. She was the ASU Freshman of the Year in 1993 and is on ASU's single-season and career record charts in hits, doubles, and stolen bases.
During the summer of 1998, Lohmann was a pitcher and a shortstop for the Arizona Peppers in the Ladies Professional Baseball League. She played the same positions during the 1998 USA Women's Baseball National Tournament, helping the Arizona Angels to a runner-up finish. In 1999, Lohmann played in the Women's Professional Softball League as a member of the North Carolina Diamonds.
She earned her master's degree in human service administration from Bradley in December 2002.
