Katelyn Kemmetmueller became the first Gopher softball player to ever go through the nursing program at the University of Minnesota.

The Rogers, Minn. native navigated the rigorous course and workload while balancing a heavy practice and travel schedule with the softball team. She passed her NCLEX test and is now officially a registered nurse. She plans to return to the Gopher softball squad as a super senior for the 2021 season while pursuing a master's degree and gaining more experience in her field. Congrats Katie!

It's official!

A lot of people told @KatelynKemm she couldn't do softball and nursing at the same time.

Never doubt Katie. https://t.co/AACMdPYV0R
