Whitney Cloer has been on the Oklahoma State softball staff since 2022 and has helped the Cowgirls to a Big 12 Tournament championship and two trips to the Women’s College World Series.
She was elevated into the role of assistant coach prior to the 2023 season and made a significant impact on an OSU offense that set program records in team batting average, runs scored, hits, doubles, runs batted in and more. The Cowgirls of 2023 struck out fewer times than any OSU team since 1999.
During the 2022 season, Cloer served as director of video, scouting and advanced analytics for a Cowgirls team that totaled 48 wins including the program’s first Big 12 title and a third-consecutive trip to the Women’s College World Series.
In two seasons at Oklahoma State, Cloer has assisted in the development of eight All-Americans.
She came to Stillwater in 2022 after five years as an assistant at Colorado State.
During her tenure in Fort Collins, Cloer helped produce 13 All-Mountain West honorees, including a Mountain West Defensive Player of the Year in Hayley Hutton in 2017, as well as a Mountain West Player of the Year in Amber Nelson in 2019.
In 2019, she helped the Rams to new heights as they won the second Mountain West Conference title in program history. Colorado State won 20 consecutive games in 2019, a streak that included a perfect record in the month of March and an upset victory over then-No. 16 Oklahoma State.
CSU also led the country in doubles per game after knocking 103 during the season and hit 63 home runs - the third most in program history. The Rams dominated in league play in 2019, winning a program record seven series, three of which were series sweeps.
In each of her seasons with the Rams, she helped improve both the offense and defense.
In 2018, she helped guide CSU to one of its best starts in program history with a perfect 7-0 record, its best start since 1997.
During the season, the Rams also won four conference series, their most since 2014.
Cloer came to CSU after serving as the assistant coach and assistant general manager for the Scrap Yard Dawgs of National Pro Fastpitch. Her roles included coaching players and managing player personnel.
She also aided in signing Monica Abbott to a six-year, $1 million contract which was believed to be the largest by an American female athlete in a professional franchise at the time.
Prior to working for the Scrap Yard Dawgs, Cloer was an assistant coach at Troy University for one season and helped the Trojans to a 32-23 record.
Cloer assisted in improving the Trojans batting average from a .215 to a .260 mark and their slugging percentage from .312 to .433.
Cloer started her coaching career in 2011 as a volunteer assistant coach at her alma mater Arkansas before heading to Oklahoma as a volunteer assistant coach in 2013.
While she was in Norman, the Sooners were Big 12 Champions and played in the Women’s College World Series.
With Oklahoma, Cloer was a member of the NFCA Regional Coaching Staff of the Year in 2013.
A standout softball student-athlete in her own right, Cloer played at Arkansas from 2005-09, starting 215 games in her career, including every game during her sophomore and senior years.
She finished her playing career as one of the Razorbacks’ top offensive weapons, totaling a .335 batting average with 54 hits, 37 RBI and 10 home runs during her senior season.
During her time as a Razorback, Cloer earned four varsity letters and served as team captain her junior and senior seasons.
Born in Edmond, Oklahoma, Cloer graduated from the University of Arkansas in 2009 with a bachelor’s of science in kinesiology before earning her master’s in exercise science in 2012.
She’s currently pursuing a doctorate in strategic leadership from Liberty University.
