SAN JOSE, Calif. - San Jose Giants Chief Marketing Officer Juliana Paoli has been named the winner of the California League Woman of Excellence Award as was announced Tuesday by league president Charlie Blaney. Paoli won the inaugural award by a vote of her peers in the California League. By virtue of claiming this prestigious honor, she is the California League's nominee for the Rawlings Woman of the Year, which will be presented at the Winter Meetings in December.
"We have had five remarkable seasons in San Jose both on-and-off the field and to be named the recipient of the first California League Woman of Excellence Award is an incredible honor," said Paoli, a 1996 Carson High graduate. "To be chosen by my peers for this award is both wonderful and humbling. I would like to thank the San Jose Giants staff, the San Francisco Giants, the California League, our sponsors, incredible fans and the entire community for their support over the years."
