Falepolima Aviu, a former collegiate standout at powerhouse Oklahoma, is in her first season at Ole Miss, joining Jamie Trachsel's Rebel staff as a graduate manager.
A three-time All-Big 12 standout for the Sooners from 2016-19, Aviu finished her career ranked sixth all-time at Oklahoma in games played at 255, primarily patrolling the outfield but also seeing time at designated player and first base. During her career, Aviu helped the Sooners register a 232-28 record, reaching the Women’s College World Series all four years and winning a pair of National Championships. Following the conclusion of her collegiate career, Aviu signed a professional contract in 2019 with the NPF’s USSSA Pride.
Aviu garnered a .328 batting average during her career, racking up 234 hits, including 72 for extra bases. The Oceanside, California, native’s 45 doubles ranks as the 10th-most in Oklahoma history, adding 25 home runs and a pair of triples. Aviu proved a prolific run producer during her time with the Sooners, stacking up 177 RBIs and 153 runs in her four years.
Aviu put a pronounced stamp on her decorated career in 2019, garnering an NFCA Second Team All-American nod. The Rancho Buena Vista High School product posted a .350 average as a senior, scoring 49 runs and driving in 36 more, racking up 12 doubles, seven home runs and both of her career triples. In addition to piling up hits, Aviu demonstrated a keen eye, garnering 33 walks on the way to .461 OBP.
As a sophomore in 2017, Aviu was named First Team NFCA All-Region and Second Team All-Big 12 after starting all 70 games for the Sooners. Aviu batted .327 during the year, recording 51 RBIs and 39 runs scored. The California slugger’s 18 doubles ranked sixth-most in Oklahoma history, while also ranking seventh in the Sooner record book with 18 HBPs.
Aviu jumped onto the collegiate scene in 2016, quickly establishing herself as a key player for the National Champion Sooners, ultimately starting 55 times among her 61 appearances. Aviu was tabbed Second Team All-Big 12 and Big 12 All-Freshman after batting .355 with 50 RBIs and 38 runs, demonstrating her power with eight doubles and home runs apiece. Aviu shined on the biggest stage, going 2-for-3 and driving in the winning run in Oklahoma’s title-clinching 2-1 win over Auburn in Game Three of the Women’s College World Series Final.
Following her playing career, Aviu joined Patty Gasso’s Sooner staff as a student assistant for the 2020 season, earning her bachelor’s degree from the University of Oklahoma in 2020.
