Michele Marie Granger (born January 15, 1970) is an American, former collegiate four-time NCAA Division I First Team All-American and 1996 gold medal-winning Olympian softball pitcher.

Against La Mirada High School on June 2, 1988, Granger ended her career tallying 40 strikeouts in the Southern Section 3-A softball semifinals.

[2] As a sophomore, Granger would also make her first Team USA roster during the summer of 1986 and competed at the World Championships under head coach Ralph Raymond.

1990: Resuming her freshman season, Granger twirled 5 no-hitters (a season top-5 and NCAA tying Freshman Class record), led her team with a career best ERA and posted the best strikeout ratio with the most strikeouts in the NCAA to garner National Fastpitch Coaches' Association All-American status and All-Pac-10 honors.

[6][7] For one of her no-hitters, Granger set a school, NCAA Sophomore Class and overall single 7-inning game record for strikeouts when she whiffed 21 batters in a 3-0 win over the Creighton Bluejays on March 22, 1991.

She responded by shutting out the USF Bulls in their opening game but eventually suffered their second loss 2-0 to defending champions the Arizona Wildcats.

For her fourth All-American honor, Granger, along with Lisa Fernandez became the first NCAA Division I softball players to be named to the First Team in four consecutive seasons.

[14] Finally, she holds the no-hitter crown at 25 and ranks second all-time in shutouts, third in perfect games (5), 6th in innings, 9th in strikeouts and 15th in ERA overall (10th for a four-year career) in the NCAA Division I.

On July 30, she would post her second win in the gold medal game in which Team USA defeated China 3-1, with Granger pitching the first 5 plus innings, giving up a run, a walk and striking out 8 batters.
