Southeastern Louisiana University Athletics

One of the most decorated softball student-athletes in program history, Katie Godwin joined the Southeastern Louisiana softball staff as an assistant coach in August 2018. She transitioned into a role as the Director of Operations heading into the 2025 season. 
           
A 2016 graduate of Southeastern, Godwin is the only three-time first team All-Southland Conference performer in school history. The Port St. Joe, Florida native was named to the All-Southland and All-Louisiana teams in each of her four seasons in Hammond.
 
She was named to the All-South Region team as a junior, after ranking among the national leaders with a single-season school record .484 batting average. In her lone season under Fremin, Godwin received the NFCA Golden Shoe Award after leading Division I with 58 stolen bases and setting a single-season school record with 49 runs scored.
 
Godwin’s .425 career batting average is the highest in the history of the Southland Conference. She is still the program’s career leader with 277 hits and 148 runs scored. In August 2023, she was inducted in the SLU Athletics Hall of Fame.

Following graduation, she moved back to her home state with coaching stints at Port St. Joe High School and Apalachicola Bay Charter School.
 
The former Katie Lacour and her husband, Bryce, wed in June 2020. The couple welcomed a son, Micah, in October 2022 and a daughter, Parker, in June 2024.
