UCLA's Rachel Garcia is the LA Sports Awards Sportswoman of the Year, the Los Angeles Sports Council has announced.

Garcia, who is the two-time defending USA Softball National Collegiate Player of the Year, won the Honda Cup as the Collegiate Woman Athlete of the Year for her performance with UCLA in 2019, along with several other awards.
