Megan Gibson was a four-year (2005-08) letterman for Coach Jo Evans and the Aggie softball team. Gibson is a rare three-time National Fastpitch Coaches’ Association (NFCA) All-American and one of the most decorated players in Texas A&M softball history. Now an assistant coach at Penn State, in charge of Nittany Lion pitchers, Gibson graduated from A&M with a bachelor’s degree in sport management and a minor in business in 2008. Despite sharing the circle with fellow standout hurler Amanda Scarborough, Gibson had a banner career for the Aggies that culminated in a national runner-up finish for A&M in 2008. With Gibson in the lineup, the Aggies reached the Women’s College World Series (WCWS) for the first time in over 20 years when the 2007 squad went two-and-out in Oklahoma City. To this day, Gibson owns the A&M career records for doubles (48), total bases (447) and walks (172). She also ranks in the program’s top 10 in nine other categories. After her career at A&M, Gibson spent four years in the National Professional Fastpitch League (NPF) and one season in the Japanese Softball Association before taking an assistant position at UTSA as the Roadrunners’ pitching coach. While in the NPF, she also served as a graduate assistant at Texas A&M in the fall of 2008 and a volunteer pitching coach in 2011.
