Kim Hartman (Women's Volleyball)
Kim Hartman Mosley is a 1987 graduate of Fontbonne University with a major in Early Childhood Education. Kim was a varsity volleyball player who garnered numerous awards for her excellent work on the court. A two time All-American (1984-85 & 1985-86), she was one of the most prolific volleyball players in the history of the sport at the University.
Kim not only won many individual honors, she also led the Griffins to the National Finals of the National Little College Athletic Association (NLCAA) Tournament in 1985. Fontbonne lost to Scholastica College in the final game. This may be as close as any Fontbonne team has ever come to being a national champion.
DIANE PINKLEY REYNOLDS (Women's Softball)
In 1994, Fontbonne University Athletic Department instituted the first women’s softball team. Diane Pinkley Reynolds has the honor of pitching the first game of that first season. She pitched in 24 games that year, starting in 22 of them. She won 13 of those games, with one save and an ERA of 1.23. As a sophomore, Diane pitched in 28 complete games of the 32 played, winning 22, and carrying an ERA of .85. That ERA was outstanding enough to find her fifth in the nation in NCAA Division III.
Her junior year Diane won 12 games, 1 save, and had an ERA of 1.67, winning her last eight starts. With additional pitchers coming on board her senior year, Diane won eight games with an ERA of 1.64, played first base while batting .418, and was the emergency catcher when injuries to team mates required it. This all lead to a four year record of 55 wins, 70 complete games, 4 saves, and a cumulative ERA of 1.26.
Diane was a four time All-Conference first team selection, and eleven times was chosen conference Player of the Week. She has also pitched in two women’s Class A ASA National Championships (1995 & 1997), and pitched against the USA Olympic team in 1996. She did not allow a base runner during the latter game. Without a doubt, Diane must be considered one of the premier players in the history of the SLIAC conference.
