Cassady Brewer

Title:
Director of Softball Operations

Memphis Softball head coach Trena Prater announced the addition of Cassady Brewer to the Tigers staff as Director of Operations.

In her first season with the Tigers in 2025, Memphis saw a vast improvement, securing 19 wins, the most in a single season for Memphis since 2019. Memphis' five conference wins were also the most since the 2018 season. Memphis also recorded its third American Athletic Conference Tournament victory with a 6-5 win over seventh-seeded UAB, which was also the first tournament win since 2018.

Brewer spent 2024 at UCF as Director of Operations & Video Coordinator for the Knights.

Brewer, a four-year starter with the Knights from 2016-19, returns to UCF following three seasons on Florida Gators head coach Tim Walton’s staff from 2021-23. She most recently served as Florida’s volunteer assistant coach in 2023 on the heels of two years as the program’s coordinator of video and data analysis.

In her three seasons in Gainesville, the Apopka, Florida, native helped lead the Gators to a collective 132-52 record, including three NCAA Regional appearances, two Super Regional appearances and one Women’s College World Series berth in 2022.

As a four-year catcher with the Knights during her playing career prior to joining Florida’s coaching staff, Brewer was well-decorated for her contributions. She compiled an aggregate .316/.437/.479 (180-for-570) line in 216 games spanning four seasons, accompanied by a .916 OPS, 41 doubles, 16 home runs, 106 RBI and 77 runs scored.

She also represented a steady and reliable presence behind the plate, committing only 20 errors in 971 total chances, good for a .979 career fielding percentage, while throwing out 33 of 71 (46.5 percent) of attempted base-stealers. Brewer added 179 assists in her four-year tenure as well, including a season-high 87 during her freshman 2016 slate.

She was recognized by the American Athletic Conference in each of her four years donning the Black and Gold, as she was honored with three First Team All-Conference selections from 2016-18 and a Second Team All-Conference selection in 2019, her final season. She too was named to The American’s All-Rookie team in 2016, while also taking home the AAC’s Rookie of the Year honors.

Brewer was twice recognized with NFCA All-Region selections as well, being added to the NFCA’s First Team All-Region in 2018 and the NFCA’s Second Team All-Region in 2019.

Her .341 batting average in 2019 paced the team, and she led the Knights in on-base percentage and slugging percentage in each of her final three seasons from 2017-19.

Brewer’s name remains scattered throughout the Knights’ all-time record lists as well, as she still holds third (.491, 2018), sixth (.452, 2019) and ninth place (.438, 2017) on UCF’s all-time single-season on-base percentage list.

Her 16 doubles in 2019 were good for a share of first in a single season in program history until freshman Aubrey Evans broke the record with 18 in 2023, and her 37 walks in 2018 are still good for the third-most in a single season in program history. Her 17 attempted base-stealers thrown out in 2018 remain the most in a single season in program history as well.

Brewer also ranks second on the UCF all-time career on-base percentage list (.437) and walks list (121), fifth in career doubles (41), sixth in career slugging percentage (.479), and shares eighth place on the career average list (.316).
