New Oregon Ducks softball coach Melyssa Lombardi has signed a five-year contract worth an average of $345,000 annually.
A copy of her contract was released Friday by the university after a records request by The Oregonian/OregonLive.
An assistant at Oklahoma for 21 years, Lombardi became one of the country's most sought-after coaches during her tenure as the Sooners won four national championships due in large part to her work with pitchers and catchers who produced a combined 20 All-America honors under her coaching.
Lombardi will be introduced publicly at UO's head coach Monday at Jane Sanders Stadium and her hiring has earned rave reviews across collegiate softball.
