I am writing a novel about a college baseball team.
I would like to introduce a female character who helps out the team.
What positions/roles are available for a female student in supporting the team?
Since she is a student, she obviously would not be the manager of the team.
Could she be an assistant to the manager?

I was the scorekeeper / stat girl for my school's team. I became kind of an assistant to the coach when I switched to softball. Girls can also be trainers, the sports medicine crew. In college baseball, a girl would be a very minor character. There isn't that much she can really do there. Guys don't have a lot of respect for girls in their sports circles.
There are no cheerleaders in baseball.

Why doesn't she play? Is that too cliche for a story?
My first introduction to baseball was a book called "Don and Donna Go to Bat" when I was four. They were twins who were equally good at ball except that Donna was scared of the ball. Don makes this baseball team but gets sick just before the big game. Donna takes his stuff to the game but has to wear the uniform there because it keeps falling off the bike. At the field she is mistaken for Don, gets put in the game, overcomes her fears and wins the game for the team. The team is so impressed with her that they make her a part of the team as equipment manager so she can shine their trophies. (-: When I was four I loved the story because it was about baseball. Now that I'm an adult I find it both hilarious and disturbing how sexist it was. (-:
Make her meet the star pitcher in her first year of college and have her be a better pitcher, but never given the chance to try out for the university team because of her sex. Then throw in some sex. Then have her start secretly killing various people who are standing in her way. throw in some more sex and then have her develop a taste for killing leading her to just start killing random people. She gets caught just before the big game and she is about to be taken off to jail when her father appears out of no where forgiving her for having killed him. Its a big tear jerker moment but the cold hearted judge decides to let her play one last game. Unfortunately she gives up 6 runs while only retiring one batter and is removed from the game. She learns something trivial about life on her way to the slammer and the story ends with the judge laughing maniacly just before she has sex with him and kills him.
It would be the feel good slasher/porn of the summer! (-:

Your character could be a student manager or student assistant.
