Kim LeComte joins the Lady Buff coaching staff as a volunteer assistant in 2015 as one of the most decorated players in West Texas A&M and Lone Star Conference history makes the transition from player to coach.Â
LeComte finished her career at WTAMU as not only one of the most talented student-athletes in the history of the softball program, but as one of the most talented players to ever compete in the Lone Star Conference at the NCAA Division II level. She was a driving force in the development of WT’s softball program, helping make it one of the top programs in the country during her four seasons in Canyon.
LeComte became the first player in program history to earn multiple All-American honors as she was a Louisville Sluigger/NFCA selection in 2010 (1st Team) and 2011 (1st Team) while picking up Daktronics 2nd Team accolades as a junior in 2011. The Lady Buffs became one of the top programs in the LSC and Division II as they claimed the 2011 Lone Star Conference Tournament Championship while making appearances in the NCAA Division II Postseason in 2010 and 2011, claiming the South Central Region 2 Title in 2011.
The Boerne, Texas native graduated in 2012 with four LSC career marks, nine different WT school records, and six different school single-season records following her four-year career. Her LSC records included having 291 hits, 56 home runs, 229 runs scored and 232 runs batted in. Along with those numbers, she added 46 doubles, 18 triples, 542 total bases, 779 at bats and a .684 slugging percentage to her WT career records. LeComte was honored on Senior Day 2012 when WT head coach Kevin Blaskowski presented a #10 banner on the centerfield fence in honor of LeComte’s accolades and success at WT.
