Volunteer Assistant Coach

Kailee Cuico

Prior to her stint at Texas, Cuico spent four seasons on the coaching staff at Oregon, her alma mater, serving as a volunteer assistant from 2016-18, focusing on hitting and defense. During that span, Duck batters posted the nation's top batting average in 2016 (.353) and the second-best fielding percentage in school history in 2018 (.973) on squads that produced numerous All-Americans.

A standout student-athlete at Oregon from 2011-14, Cuico was a two-time NFCA All-Pacific Region and three-time All-Pac-12 Honorable Mention selection. She is the first Duck to reach a career 40-HR plateau and currently ranks second in the UO record books in both career homers (46) and RBI (180), and also third in walks (100). During her time in Eugene, she propelled the Ducks to 193 wins, two Women's College World Series berths (2012, 2014) and two Pac-12 regular season crowns (2013-14).

Following her collegiate career, Cuico played two seasons with National Pro Fastpitch, highlighted by helping the Chicago Bandits win the 2015 Cowles Cup title.

Internationally, Cuico has been a member of the Philippines National Team. In 2017, she led her squad to a second-place finish at the Asian Women's Championship (highest finish in Philippines softball history), earning the Philippines berths in the 2018 Women's Softball World Championship and the 2018 Asian Games.
