2019 WICHITA STATE GAME NOTES #14Arkansas (Fayetteville, Ark.)

SCOUTING ARKANSAS Arkansas is one of the scariest teams for an offense to face, with its pitching staff only having a 2.35 earned run average. The Razorbacks have won all 26 of their games utilizing its pitchers, leading them to a top 20 ranking throughout the season. Autumn Storms has a 129 strikeouts and an ERA of 1.70, with Mary Haff leading the Razorbacks in the circle with 133 strikeouts. Offensively, Arkansas has already made history. On Feb. 24, Danielle Gibson hit a home run cycle in just four innings. That feat is something no one in Major League Baseball history has ever accomplished. Gibson also helps Arkansas offensively with a .348 batting average and leads the Razorbacks with nine home runs. Hannah McEwen also provides a spark with a .354 batting average and has collected eight doubles, while Katie Warrick has also contributed with nine doubles and 25 RBIs in addition to hitting over .330.

LAST MEETINGIn their first NCAA Regional Final in school history, the Shockers fell short to Arkansas in Fayetteville. Asea Webber hit a two-run double that cut the deficit to one heading into the fourth inning, but Arkansas scored three unanswered runs to end the historic season for Wichita State.

BACK TO MEMORY LANE Even though the Shockers were knocked out of the 2018 NCAA Tournament by Arkansas, Bogle Park still holds terrific memories for Wichita State Softball. The Shockers managed to collect two wins over Oklahoma State. Madison Perrigan hit a historic two, two-run home runs to lift the Shockers to the program’s first ever Regional Final.

HIGHLIGHT REELER For the fourth consecutive season, Wichita State will have a player who has made at least one SportsCenter Top 10 play in their career. Following the graduation of Mackenzie Wright, who appeared on ESPN for a diving effort against Nebraska in 2016, the Shockers added Marshall transfer Wylie Glover. Glover made a diving catch against James Madison on April 18 that was ranked seventh in top plays that day.

COLLECTING THE ACCOLADES The Shockers collected at least two First-Team All-Conference honors last season for the fifth consecutive year. Mackenzie Wright, Laurie Derrico and Bailey Lange earned First-Team All-Conference in Wichita State’s first year in the American Athletic Conference. The streak began in 2014, with the Shockers earning three First-Team All-Conference honors in the Missouri Valley Conference. It had been the first time since 2008 that the program had multiple players named to the First-Team.

DON’T COUNT US OUTWhen the Shockers have been down to their last out, the party has just gotten started for them at the plate. Wichita State has scored 55

runs with two outs, hitting 10 out of 28 of its home runs during that stretch.

GETTING ‘EM AROUNDSenior Laurie Derrico needs two home runs to move into first place in the Shocker record books. Currently in second with 38, if Derrico reaches 40 she will overtake Cacy Williams who played at Wichita State from 2014-16. Derrico has reached double figures in home runs in the previous two seasons.

FRIENDLY COMPETITION As leaders of Wichita State’s all-time slugging percentage list, Madison Perrigan and Laurie Derrico have been competing for the top spot. Perrigan recently passed Derrico for the third-highest slugging percentage in program history this week, now having a mark of .575. Cacy Williams (2014-16) leads the pack with a .637 career slugging percentage.

PITCHING PRESCENCEThe Shockers’ strong start in non-conference is largely due to strong pitching performances in the circle. Bailey Lange and Erin McDonald pitched shutouts in their starts in Louisiana, with the Shockers only giving up a combined nine runs through that five-game stretch. Caitlin Bingham earned the first conference honor roll this season for the Shockers while McDonald was named American Athletic Conference Pitcher of the Week in week two after combining for 11 strikeouts. Bingham earned her third honor roll of the season, only giving up one earned run in the UT-Arlington Classic while McDonald earned her second honor roll honor.

LATE INNING MAGIC The Shockers have put its best forward when the game is on the line, dominating its opponents in the last three innings. Wichita State has outscored its opponents 72-53 in the final three innings, including a domination in the sixth inning (39-17).

FREE SOFTBALL Wichita State has played in three extra innings games this season, all turning into victories. When the Shockers have to go past the seventh inning, they turn the heat up offensively. They have outscored their opponents 7-1 in extra innings, including a three-run outing in the top of the 10th in a win at UCF last weekend.

GETTING THE BASES Madison Perrigan has made it her mission to get on base under any circumstance. She currently leads the American Athletic Conference in total bases with 75, most walks drawn with 31 and most home runs with eight. Having a slugging percentage of .641 this season, Perrigan is also fourth in the conference in that category.

POWER AGAINST THE LEFTYBredbenner has made it a key to have identical power against left-handed pitchers as the Shockers do against right-handed pitchers. Wichita State has done exactly that

this year, hitting .379 as a team against left-handed pitchers. The Shockers have compiled 12 RBI and four doubles while hitting a home run during that stretch.

TWO IS BETTER THAN ONEDouble plays have been key to Wichita State’s defensive success, turning 15 in 2019. Ryleigh Buck leads the American Athletic Conference in double plays with 18, with Kaylee Huecker (13) and Laurie Derrico (15)not far behind. Wichita State leads the conference with 23 double plays, six away from tying a program record.

OFFENSIVE POWER The Shockers are leading the American Athletic Conference in several offensive categories, including hits, slugging percentage, on-base percentage and batting average. Wichita State also holds a commanding lead in home runs and walks against its conference foes.

FEEDING OFF THE FANS It’s clear the Shockers have fed off the fan support at Wilkins Stadium. The Shockers have not had an attendance mark below 300 this season, averaging an attendance of 386.16 through the first 12 home games.

TAKE YOUR BASE Freshman Lauren Mills has helped the Shockers offensively from the jump as a freshman, utilizing her at-bats to get on base. Mills currently leads the American Athletic Conference in on-base percentage, dominating the way with a .540 mark.

EXECUTING WHEN IT COUNTS When the Shockers have runners in scoring position, they make sure to send drive in the runs. Wichita State has six players hitting .300 or better when runners are in scoring position, with Ryleigh Buck leading the way with a .441 batting average. Lauren Mills and Neleigh Herring have provided power in those situations, both hitting above .400.

TAKING THE LEAD Sydney McKinney has embraced the role of starting in the leadoff spot, having started in that batting order 16 times this season. When McKinney is the leadoff hitter, she is hitting .385 and leading the the team in leadoff hits with 10. In the previous series against UConn, McKinney collected two hits in two of the three outings.

HITTING SOLO When there is a bases empty situation, Wichita State has no problem taking matters into its own hands. Out of 14 players with an opportunity to be the first to get on base, the Shockers have nine batters who are hitting .300 or better in a bases empty situation. Asea Webber leads the way with a .556 batting average and four doubles with no runners on, with Kaylee Huecker hitting .500 in that category. Wylie Glover leads the team in hits with the bases empty, collecting 13 hits so far this season.

To date, Bredbenner has led the Shockers to two NCAA Regional Appearances (2016, 2018) including the first NCAA Regional Final game in school history (2018).

Bredbenner also led Wichita State to four Missouri Valley Conference Tournament appearances (2013, 2014, 2016, 2017) and one Missouri Valley Conference Championship trophy (2016).

During the 2018 season, Wichita State’s inaugural season in the American Athletic Conference, Bredbenner led the Shockers to a tied for third position in the regular season, falling in the opening round of the conference tournament to the eventual champions. After scheduling the 9th toughest non-conference slate in the NCAA, the Shockers earned the programs second ever at-large bid in school history to the NCAA Tournament. While at the Fayetteville Regional the Shockers picked up two wins over Oklahoma State in back-to-back days to earn a spot in the Regional Championship for the first time in school history.

During conference play, the Wichita State bats dominated The American by leading the league in batting average, slugging percentage, runs scored, hits, RBI’s, doubles, home runs and total bases.

Individually, six Shocker athletes were named All-Conference, including 2018 AAC Player of the Year Mackenzie Wright, who became the third WSU athlete in history to earn All-

Conference honors all four years of their career. Laurie Derrico and Bailey Lange also tabbed first team all-conference honors while Ryleigh Buck and Paige Luellen were tabbed to the second team. Bailee Nickerson earned a spot on the All-Rookie squad.

Wright also earned 2018 NFCA Central Region Second-Team honors.Under Bredbenner, 31 student-athletes have earned All-Conference honors including the six from the 2018 squad and 15 to the All-MVC First Team during WSU’s time in the The Valley. Eight have also been named to the All-MVC Second Team while two have made the MVC All-Defensive team.

In her first three seasons, Bredbenner took the Shockers from a 15-40 record in 2012 to a 34-21 record in 2014, culminating in the first Missouri Valley Conference regular season championship in school history earning the entire Shocker coaching staff the 2014 MVC Coaching Staff of the Year award.

As a team, the Shockers broke several team records in 2014 including the following: highest team batting average (.314 average)—was previously set at .305 in 1978, highest slugging percentage (.492 average)—was previously set at .446 in 1978, runs scored (314)—was previously set at 293 runs scored in 2005, most hits (472)—was previously set at 458 hits in 2005, and home runs (56)—was previously set at 52 home runs in 2005.

The O’Fallon, Mo., native graduated from Truman in 2001 with a bachelor’s degree in business/marketing and received her master’s degree in physical education from Azusa Pacific University.

2019 WICHITA STATE GAME NOTES #14 Arkansas (Fayetteville, Ark.)

2019 RESULTS

CHARLESTON, S.C. - The Wichita State softball team won its first game of the season, defeating Central Michigan 6-2 at the Cougar Classic on Friday.

Caitlin Bingham pitched a career-high seven innings, striking out four batters in her first complete game. Neleigh Herring obtained a career-high four RBI in the season opener, hitting her first career home run in the process.

Madison Perrigan lifted the Shockers to an early one-run lead, driving home Laurie Derrico off a triple to right-center in the top of the first inning. Cen-tral Michigan scored two runs in the bottom of the first, taking the lead off a sacrifice fly to center and a Wichita State error.

After Herring tied the game with a sacrifice fly in the top of the second, she followed that up in the next inning with a three-run home run to give the Shockers a 5-2 lead. Central Michigan responded with a leadoff double in the bottom of the fourth, but Wichita State forced three consecutive outs that protected its three-run advantage.

Following a one-two-three inning in the bottom of the fifth, the Chippewas led off the following inning with a double. The Shockers did not let Central Michigan rally, however, as Central Michigan was forced into a double play. A groundout to Derrico swung the momentum back toward the Shockers heading into the final inning.

Asea Webber added to the lead in the top of the seventh inning, hitting a single to left field that allowed Adeline Reese to score from second base. Following a single by Central Michigan, Wichita State held runners at second and third to come up with a four-run win in the season opener.

The Shockers forced Central Michigan into six straight shutout innings, with Bingham only allowing six hits in the game. Webber and Herring came up with two hits each, driving in five of Wichita State’s six runs.

CHARLESTON, S.C. - The Wichita State softball team split the opening day in Charleston on Friday, with Virginia Tech handing the Shockers their first loss of the season 11-3.

Sydney McKinney led the way for the Shockers in just her second career college game, going 2-for-3 at the plate. Adeline Reese collected her first career hit in her only at-bat of the game.

Virginia Tech hit the ground running in the top of the first inning, taking a com-manding four-run lead. Emma Strouth doubled to score the game’s first run and the Hokies would score again off a wild pitch. After adding a two-run double to end the first-half inning, the Hokies extended their lead in the top of the second off a three-run home run.

A single by Olivia Lattin made it a 8-0 Virginia Tech lead in the top of the third, with the Hokies adding another run in the half-inning with a sacrifice grounder to second. Virginia Tech would take its largest lead of the game, with Kelsey Bennett driving in two runs with a double to center field for an 11-run Hokie lead.

The Shockers got on the scoreboard in the bottom of the fourth, with McKinney hitting a sacrifice grounder that would score their first run. Madison Perrigan followed with a double to left-center that would drive in two runs and cut the deficit down to eight.

After drawing two walks earlier in the game, Laurie Derrico started the bottom of the fifth with a double down the left field line. Wichita State got two runners on in the bottom of the fifth, but were unable to capitalize to prevent the run-rule.

Erin McDonald pitched her first game of the season for the Shockers, pitching 2.2 innings and coming up with two strikeouts. Virginia Tech forced the Shockers to hit .285, with starting pitcher Carrie Eberle striking out seven Shocker batters.

CHARLESTON, S.C. - A late seventh inning rally was not enough to lift the Wichita State softball team in the first game of Saturday’s doubleheader. The Shockers dropped their second game of the season, falling to Pitt 4-2 at Patriots Point.

Ryleigh Buck came up with her first triple of the season, scoring a run in the process and leading the team with nine putouts. Bailey Lange came up with five strikeouts in six innings pitched in the circle.

Pitt came close to jumping ahead in the first three innings, but three strike-outs from Bailey Lange allowed the Shockers to keep the score knotted at zero. Following a leadoff single, Pitt scored the game’s first run off a single up the middle in the top of the fourth.

The Panthers kept that momentum going in the next inning, with Brie Horrell getting a single and then advancing to third base off a Shocker error in the outfield. A double to center field allowed Pitt to extend its lead to two runs, but Wichita State left with limited damage after getting the outs that left the runners in scoring position stranded.

It didn’t take Wichita State long to respond, as Asea Webber drew a walk and was brought home by Ryleigh Buck after a triple to right. Buck would tie the score seconds later, advancing to home off a Pitt throwing error.

After drawing a walk, Pitt regained the lead following a single to right center. The Panthers doubled their advantage before the top of the sixth conclud-ed, drawing a bases loaded walk that scored another run.

Webber gave life to the Shockers in the bottom of the seventh, obtaining a leadoff single that put the tying run at the plate. Bailee Nickerson singled down the right field line, leaving the bases loaded.

Pitt would end the rally, however, forcing Neleigh Herring to line out and tagging Webber out at the plate.

The Panthers held Wichita State to just three hits in its 23 at-bats, with Pitt collecting seven hits in the process.

CHARLESTON, S.C. - Wichita State took an early lead in the second game of Sat-urday’s Cougar Classic, but ultimately fell to College of Charleston 4-1 at Patriots Point.

Wylie Glover came up with a career-high three hits in her first time at the plate for the Shockers, managing to go a perfect 3-for-3. Caitlin Bingham tied her career high in strikeouts with six, pitching all six innings for Wichita State.

Charleston looked to gain the advantage early with a two-out double, but Bing-ham struck out the next batter and kept the game scoreless. Bingham followed up with another strikeout in the next inning to force the Cougars to go one-two-three.

After three scoreless innings, the Shockers jumped into the lead off the first ca-reer home run from Lauren Mills in the top of the fourth. The Cougars responded by stringing together a walk and two singles to load the bases with one out.

Charleston opened the gap thanks to Dexlie Inman, who hit a triple to give the Cougars a two-run lead in the bottom of the fourth. A wild pitch allowed Inman to score and add an insurance run for the Cougars.

Glover and Asea Webber managed to get in scoring position in the top of the fifth, but the Shockers were unable to bring the runners home and the Cougars kept the three-run lead. Following two consecutive shutout innings by Charles-ton, the Shockers had some life in the top of the seventh.

Laurie Derrico reached first on a Charleston error, with Glover following with a single to put runners on first and second. The Shockers, however, were unable to bring the runners home after the next three batters went down in order.

2019 WICHITA STATE GAME NOTES #14 Arkansas (Fayetteville, Ark.)

CHARLESTON, S.C. - The Wichita State softball team snapped its three-game losing streak on Sunday, defeating Pitt 7-2 on the final day of the Cougar Classic.

Caitlin Bingham led the Shockers in the pitcher’s circle, striking out a career-high 10 batters and only allowed three hits. Bingham’s performance was the fourth time in the last three seasons that a Shocker pitcher ob-tained double-digit strikeouts.

After a single by Asea Webber, she came up with a two-out stolen base to put herself in scoring position. Webber became the game’s first run, as the Shockers took the early lead off a Pitt fielding error in the top of the first inning.

Following two strikeouts by Bingham, Pitt took the lead thanks to a two-run home run to right field by Brie Horrell in the bottom of the first. Laurie Derrico responded with a leadoff single up the middle the next inning, with Neleigh Herring reaching first after getting hit by pitch.

The Shockers tied the score after getting runners on second and third, reaching home off a Pitt error. Wichita State managed to get the bases load-ed, but Pitt forced a flyout to right field to keep the score tied.

Once Wylie Glover drew a walk in the top of the fourth, Madison Perrigan took care of the rest. The Mustang, Okla., native knocked her first home run out of the park, giving the Shockers a 4-2 lead.

While the Shockers got it done offensively, Bingham protected the Wichita State lead. The Tecumseh, Okla., native obtained all three outs in the bot-tom of the fourth with strikeouts, obtaining her ninth strikeout of the game.

Following a one-out single by Lauren Mills, Derrico and Herring answered with two consecutive singles to load the bases. Bailey Lange obtained her first hit of the season, driving in three runs off a right field double that extended the Shockers’ lead by five.

Derrico and Mills finished tying for the team-lead in hits with two each in three plate appearances. Herring and Perrigan led things on the defensive side, each obtaining nine putouts.

RUSTON, La. - Holding Southeast Missouri to only one hit, the Wichita State softball team obtained its first win of the La Tech Invitational. The Shockers defeated the Redhawks 8-0 in five innings on Friday morning.

Bailey Lange came up with two strikeouts in five shutout innings in the cir-cle, obtaining her first win of the season. Lange was also a heavy contributor on offense, hitting her first home run of the season and driving in two RBI.

After Bailey Lange forced Southeast Missouri into a 1-2-3 inning in the top of the first, Sydney McKinney got the Shocker offense going with a leadoff single up the middle. With the bases loaded, Laurie Derrico’s left-center single allowed the Shockers to strike first with a one-run lead.

The Shockers extended their lead early in the first inning, scoring a run off an SEMSU illegal pitch. While the Redhawks attempted to string together some runs with a runner on in the top of the fourth, Wichita State’s defense was quick to respond. A diving catch by Laurie Derrico retired the side of the inning and protected the Shockers’ two-run lead.

Wichita State capitalized the following half-inning, with Ryleigh Buck giving the Shockers a four-run lead with a center field double. Lange followed up moments later, hitting her first home run of the season that gave the Shockers a 6-0 lead.

Following a strikeout by Lange to end the top of fifth inning, Asea Webber drove in an insurance run to extend the lead by seven. Webber would score off a sacrifice fly, ending the game in a run rule.

Eight of Wichita State’s nine batters collected at least one hit, with three Shocker batters collecting two RBI.

RUSTON, La. - For the first time this season, the Wichita State softball team swept a doubleheader. After a run-rule win over Southeast Missouri State, the Shockers held Abilene Christian to just three hits on Friday to come out with a 5-1 win.

Caitlin Bingham collected her third win of the season, forcing putouts in 12 of her 15 at-bats in 4.1 innings pitched.

Sydney McKinney’s leadoff triple allowed the Shockers to hit the ground running, with the Norborne, Mo., native scoring the go-ahead run off a wild pitch in the top of the first inning. The Shockers continued that momentum in the following inning, with Ryleigh Buck coming up with a double that put two runners in scoring position.

Wylie Glover took advantage with runners on second and third, driving in Asea Webber home off a left field single that gave the Shockers a two-run lead. The Shockers continued the momentum following a Caitlin Bingham strikeout to retire the side, with a Bailey Lange bunt single and a Laurie Der-rico double putting runners in scoring position. Lauren Mills hit a grounder that allowed Lange to score from third and extend the Shockers’ lead by three runs.

After Derrico ended the fourth inning with a diving catch, she started the top of the fifth inning with a leadoff single. Mills drew a walk and Madison Perrigan came up with a bunt single that loaded the bases with no outs.

Webber drove in the fourth Shocker runner off a fielder’s choice to third base, but Abilene Christian forced the Shockers to retire the side off a ground out and fly out. The Wildcats would not go away quietly, however, with Blair Clayton hitting a solo shot to left center to cut the Shocker lead to three.

The Shockers answered back in the next inning, with Glover snagging a single and advancing to second base off a throwing error by the pitcher. A single by Lange up the middle allowed Glover to score, extending the lead to four.

Erin McDonald came up with a season-high four strikeouts in 2.2 innings pitched in relief, coming up with her first career save. The Shockers had four players collect two hits, with Wichita State hitting .312 as a team.

RUSTON, La. - Scoring 10 unanswered runs in the fourth and fifth inning, Wichita State ended Louisiana Tech’s eight-game winning streak after de-feating the Lady Techsters 13-3 on Saturday night.

Neleigh Herring set a new career high in hits, doubles and RBI, going 3-for-3 at the plate while driving in five runs. Caitlin Bingham recorded her fourth win of the season, striking out three batters in the process.

After a single and a walk, Lauren Mills helped the Shockers get on the board first with an RBI single to the right side of the field. Herring kept the momentum going in the top of the first inning, coming up with a double to right field that drove in two more runs.

Louisiana Tech, however, was quick to respond and scored two runs a half-inning later off an RBI double and a sacrifice grounder to short. The Lady Techsters eventually knotted the score at three all, scoring off a wild pitch in the bottom of the second inning. Looking for the go-ahead run, the Shockers protected the tie off Asea Webber’s diving catch in center field to retire the side.

With two walks and a single by Bailee Nickerson loading the bases in the top of fourth, the Shockers drew two bases loaded walks to grab the lead 5-3. Despite Louisiana Tech getting runners at the corners, Wichita State forced Louisiana Tech into its second straight shutout inning by coming up with a pop fly and a groundout to Laurie Derrico that kept them ahead by two.

The Shockers got two leadoff runners on base after two hit by pitches, scoring two insurance runs after back-to-back bases loaded walks. A double from Derrico added two more Shocker runs, with Herring driving in three more runs off a double to center. Ryleigh Buck gave the Shockers their eighth run of the fifth inning, driving in a run off a right field single.

Mills went 2-for-2 at the plate with two RBI, with six different Wichita State batters recording a hit and coming up with nine hits as a team.

RUSTON, La. - Coming off a double-digit win over Louisiana Tech, Wichita State capped off its second consecutive doubleheader sweep with an 11-5 win over Mississippi Valley State on Saturday night.

Bailee Nickerson and Laurie Derrico led the Shockers with two hits each, to-taling four RBI. Erin McDonald registered her first win as a Shocker, striking out five batters in 3.2 innings pitched.

Ryleigh Buck got things started in the bottom of the first by drawing a walk, with Derrico and Lauren Mills stringing together back-to-back singles. Like she did in the first game against Louisiana Tech, Neleigh Herring got runners home off a ground rule double to right field to give the Shockers a 2-0 lead.

Asea Webber continued the first inning scoring spree, getting two more runs home with a center field single. Two more singles from Nickerson and Wylie Glover allowed the Shockers to take a six-run lead in the bottom of the first.

The offensive momentum continued in the bottom of the second inning, with Madison Perrigan hitting a sacrifice grounder with the bases loaded to give the Shockers a seven-run advantage. Despite Mississippi Valley State getting a runner 90 feet away from scoring, two putouts from Kaylee Huec-ker at shortstop and a strikeout from McDonald kept the MVSU scoreless through three.

Mississippi Valley State, however, did not go away quietly in the top of the fourth. The Devilettes collected three hits and scored three runs off two home runs, cutting the Shocker lead down to four. MVSU continued its offensive firepower in the following inning, coming up with a double that cut the deficit to three runs.

Perrigan responded with a leadoff double to center field, Nickerson then bringing her home off a left field double to bring the Shocker lead back up to four. Buck followed with a grounder that scored Webber from third and pushed Wichita State out in front 9-4. Derrico added two more runs, coming up with a double to left field.

Kaylee Huecker collected her first career hit as a Shocker, coming up with a left field single in the bottom of the fourth inning.

ARLINGTON, Texas - Abilene Christian managed to get a runner in scoring position in the top of the second inning, coming up with a left field double. Bingham prevented the go-ahead run, forcing two strikeouts and a ground-out to herself that retired the side and kept the score knotted at zero.

Wylie Glover collected the first hit of the game for the Shockers in the top of the third, but ACU prevented any more damage after the third baseman came up with a lineout and threw Glover out at first. Singles by McKinney and Ryleigh Buck gave Wichita State offensive momentum in the top of the fourth, but a groundout to third base turned into another double play for ACU and forced the Shockers into its fourth consecutive shutout inning.

Nickerson got the Shockers on the board in the bottom of the fourth, hitting her second consecutive home run of the day that put Wichita State ahead 1-0. ACU tied the game in the bottom of the sixth, scoring off a throwing error by the Shockers.

Following a scoreless inning from Wichita State in the top of the seventh, Bingham came up with her 10th strikeout of the game and forced two put-outs to swing the game into extra innings. After Glover was placed on first, Lauren Mills brought in the go-ahead run with an RBI single to right field.

With an ACU runner placed on second base in the bottom of the eighth, the Wildcats tied the game off a sacrifice fly to right field. Nickerson came up with a right center double that gave the Shockers the lead in the top of the ninth, but ACU drew two walks to load the bases with one out.

The Shockers, however, managed to get the force out at home plate and tagging the runner out at third to end the game with the one-run advan-tage.

HOUSTON - After two scoreless innings, Wylie Glover started the Shocker offense with a single to center field in the top of the third. Wichita State struck first after Laurie Derrico came up with her first home run of the season, giving the Shockers a 2-0 lead.

Neleigh Herring added to the lead after Sydney McKinney reached first base off a throwing error and Glover’s second single in the top of the fifth, col-lecting an RBI single to right field that extended the lead to three. Coming up with three consecutive groundouts in a half-inning later, the Shocker offense responded with an eight-run top of the sixth inning.

Ryleigh Buck led off with her second home run of the season, and the Shockers following with two consecutive singles. Glover’s third single of the game allowed Asea Webber to score from second. Derrico kept the offen-sive momentum going, knocking out her second home run of the game and the season to keep the Shockers ahead 8-0.

The Shockers would total seven consecutive hits to start the sixth inning, with Kaylee Huecker adding to the lead with her first career double and RBI. A single by Buck drove in the game’s 10th run, with Mauriana Jamele capping off the eight-run sixth inning with a sacrifice fly to center field to bring home Bailee Nickerson.

Glover tied her career high with three hits in the game while Derrico tied her career high in RBIs with five. Erin McDonald came up with her second win of the season in six innings pitched, and finishing with six strikeouts, while only allowing one Texas Southern hit.

HOUSTON - Carrying the bats from game one, Glover led off the top of the first inning against Texas State with a bunt single. After Derrico’s bunt single and Madison Perrigan’s sacrifice bunt to move the runners to second and third, Herring allowed the Shockers to score the game’s first run off a sacrifice fly to center field.

Nickerson came up with a single that scored Derrico from second, extending her hit streak to 10 games in the process. Bingham forced two 1-2-3 innings to start the game before giving up her first walk in the bottom of the third. The Shockers would leave protecting its two-run lead, however, with Perrig-an catching the runner stealing second and Bingham forcing a groundout to retire the side.

Another single by Nickerson in the top of the sixth gave the Shockers a chance to extend its lead, with pinch runner Kasidee Eck stealing her first career base to put herself in scoring position. Webber sent her home, hitting a single to left field that extended the Shocker lead 3-0.

Texas State came up with a leadoff single and advanced the runner off a wild pitch, with the Bobcats coming up with another single to put the tying run at the plate. Bingham came up with a strikeout, with the Shockers com-ing up with a 6-3-5 double play to end the game. Bingham came up with her eighth win of the season in addition to pitching her sixth complete game of the season.

HOUSTON - DePaul opened the gates by loading the bases, but only came up with one run after a double play and a Bingham strike out ended the top of the first with limited damage. Wichita State was quick to respond, with Madison Perrigan doubling to left field that scored Wylie Glover to tie the game a half-inning later. After the Shockers loaded the bases, Webber was hit by a pitch and drove in the go-ahead run.

Derrico followed up by hitting a home run to right center, with the Shockers adding another run off an error by the DePaul first baseman. DePaul came up with a double in the top of the third, cutting the lead to two runs after a single drove in the runner from second. The Shockers added to the lead off an error from the pitcher, extending the lead to 5-2.

Following a single from Derrico in the bottom of the fifth, the Shockers scored its sixth run off Perrigan’s second double of the game that scored Derrico from first. Bingham did not allow a DePaul hit in the final two innings, forcing the Blue Demons to hit .166 for the game.

The Shockers had four players collect two hits, with six of Wichita State’s nine batters producing a hit.

HOUSTON- In Martinez’s first start of the season, she did not allow a hit until the sixth inning and pitched six shutout innings. The Shockers rallied behind Martinez’s pitching, jumping out to a 3-0 lead. Two singles from Bailee Nickerson and Ryleigh Buck allowed the Shockers to strike first, with Texas Southern not allowing a run for four innings.

Wichita State looked to extend its lead in the top of the sixth, with Perrigan coming up with a single and Adi Reese drawing a walk to put runners on first and second. Webber doubled the lead with her first home run of the season, capping her third consecutive hit of the game.

After a double from Kaylee Huecker, Sydney McKinney brought her home with an RBI single. McKinney later added the eighth run of the game, scor-ing off a Texas Southern error after a Glover bunt single.

Texas Southern prevented the game from ending in a run rule, starting the top of the sixth with a leadoff single and moving into scoring position after a sacrifice bunt. The Tigers avoided the shutout, coming up with a single down the right field line to make it an 8-1 game.

Webber and McKinney registered career highs in hits against Texas South-ern, with McKinney also going 3-for-3 at the plate. Webber tied her career high in RBIs, last driving in three runs on April 14, 2017 against Indiana State.

STILLWATER, Okla. - With the Wichita State softball team claiming the last four victories over Oklahoma State, the Cowgirls got their revenge. Behind seven strikeouts from the pitching staff, OSU defeated the Shockers 3-0 on Wednesday night at Cowgirl Stadium.

Caitlin Bingham started her ninth game of the season, but was charged with her second loss in 2019 after allowing the two go-ahead runs. Wichita State’s pitchers also forced the Cowgirls to hit .190, marking the sixth straight game where the Shockers forced the opposition to hit under .200.

The Shockers claimed six hits as a team and only forced OSU to four team hits, but the Cowgirls held Wichita State to .222 on the night. Erin McDon-ald led the Shockers in the circle with four strikeouts in 2.2 innings pitched in relief, only allowing two hits.

Laurie Derrico started the Shockers off with a single in the top of the first, moving 90 feet away from scoring the first run. OSU, however, forced a groundout following two walks to retire the side.

The Cowgirls struck first, with Rylee Bayless scoring from second off a Chy-enne Factor single down the left field line in the bottom of the first. Factor added to the OSU lead two innings later, hitting her second home run of the season to center field to make it a 2-0 game. OSU managed to get two more runners on, but McDonald came in to force a groundout to third base to prevent further damage.

Bayless extended the OSU lead with her third home run of the season, hitting it to left center for the Cowgirls’ third run of the game. Wichita State looked to respond, with Wylie Glover leading off the top of the fifth inning with a bunt single. OSU managed to get out of the inning with no damage, coming up with two strikeouts and forcing a fielder’s choice grounder.

With OSU forcing a fly out and a groundout to start the top of the sixth inning, pinch hitter Adi Reese singled to shortstop to come up with her second career hit. Kaylee Huecker answered back with a single to left field and advanced to second on the throw, putting runners in scoring position on second and third with the tying run at the plate. The Cowgirls got out of the inning with its sixth shutout inning, forcing a fly out to left to keep the lead knotted at three.

McDonald struck out two batters and forced a groundout to third base to force a quick bottom of the sixth, but the Cowgirls returned the favor by forcing a 1-2-3 to claim the win. Glover came up with a hit in her sixth straight game, while Derrico extended her hit streak to five.

OSU won its fifth straight game, coming up with its third shutout during that five-game stretch.

WICHITA, Kan. - Feeding off a six-run inning in the bottom of the fourth, the Wichita State softball team ended its home opener with a 10-1 run-rule win over Nebraska on Saturday at Wilkins Stadium.

Laurie Derrico and Asea Webber led the way offensively, coming up with two hits in both their at-bats. Derrico extended her hit streak to six games while Webber’s outing was the third time in four games where she collected two or more hits. Erin McDonald came up with her third win of the season in the circle, only allowing three hits in 4.2 innings pitched.

Nebraska struck first after two walks and a single loaded the bases, scoring the game’s first run off a single up the middle by Tristen Edwards in the top of the first. The Shockers managed to prevent any more damage, with Kaylee Huecker diving for a grounder that resulted in a fielder’s choice out at second to retire the side.

After Wylie Glover’s leadoff single and two walks loaded the bases a half-inning later, Wichita State snagged the lead from Webber’s single up the middle that swung the lead 2-1. A groundout by Ryleigh Buck allowed a third run to score and the Shockers would end the first inning with a two-run lead.

The Shockers managed to force six consecutive outs through the second and third innings, with Derrico adding to the lead in the bottom of the third with her fourth home run of the season. Nebraska would end its hit drought in the top of the fourth with a single, but McDonald forced two fly outs to retire the side.

Following Webber’s bunt single and Buck’s walk, Huecker came up with her third career double to left field that added two more runs in addition to giving the Lake St. Louis, Mo., native a new career-high for RBIs. Huecker scored off a Nebraska error, with Derrico coming up with an RBI single to left field that pushed the Shockers out in front 8-1.

Madison Perrigan followed up with the nail in the coffin, hitting a two-run home run to left center that gave the Shockers a nine-run lead. Perrigan’s fourth home run of the season marked the sixth time where she drove in two or more runs.

With Derrico’s home run, she moved up to second in program history for career home runs and is four home runs away from breaking the program record set by Cacy Williams (2014-16). After a two RBI day, the Sterling, Okla., native moved to fourth all-time in RBIs. She is six RBIs away from tying Britnee Barnett (2005-08) for third in program history.

The Shockers’ defense held Nebraska to a .210 batting average, making it the sixth straight game where Wichita State held its opponent to four hits or less.

WICHITA, Kan. - Caitlin Bingham and Erin McDonald didn’t allow a hit to Nebraska to lead the Shockers defensively in game one, coming up with the first no-hitter since Katie Malone on April 16, 2014 in a 12-0 victory over Missouri State. Sunday was the first time since 2006, when Margo Pruis shutdown Northern Colorado and struck out 13 batters in a 6-0 victory.

The no-hitter also marked the first time since May 9, 2003 (Lindsay Craig and Lindsey Lang vs. Illinois State in the Missouri Valley Conference Tourna-ment) where two Shocker pitchers combined to no-hit the opponent.

After two walks in the top of the third inning, Nebraska struck first off a sacrifice fly in foul territory to claim an early one-run lead. The Cornhusk-ers followed up with another sac fly to move ahead 2-0 after the first-half inning.

Following a bunt single from Wylie Glover, Madison Perrigan advanced her on a single and Glover managed to score off a Nebraska error. The Shockers tied the game in the bottom of the first, with Bailee Nickerson delivering a single up the middle to knot the game at 2-2.

McDonald retired nine consecutive batters through the fourth inning and the Shockers took advantage, with Kaylee Huecker leading off the bottom of the fourth with a single to left field. Getting the bases loaded after a hit by pitch and Nebraska error, Nickerson came up with a left field double that pushed the Shockers to a three-run lead. McDonald sat down the first 17 batters she faced.

Ryleigh Buck followed the scoring spree in the bottom of the fifth, coming up with her third home run of the season to give Wichita State the 6-2 lead. McDonald forced five more outs before giving up her first walk, but forced a fly out to left field to end the top of the sixth.

Nebraska drew another walk in the top of the seventh, but McDonald forced the Cornhuskers to ground into a 6-4-3 double play to end the game.

WICHITA, Kan. - Behind a no-hitter and a grand slam from Asea Webber, Wichita State claimed its first home sweep of the season after two wins over Nebraska on Sunday at Wilkins Stadium. The Shockers defeated the Huskers 6-2 in game one and 7-5 in the finale.

Looking to avoid the sweep, Nebraska once again jumped out to an early lead after Samantha Owens came up with a double down the left field line. Following singles by Buck and Huecker and a walk from Sydney McKinney, Glover drove in the tying run off a bases loaded walk in the bottom of the second inning.

Following a Husker walk, Tristen Edwards hit a home run to center field that gave Nebraska a 3-1 lead in the top of the third. A bunt single in the top of the fourth inning allowed Nebraska to extend its lead to three in the top of the fourth, but Wichita State managed to cut the deficit down to one following a Nebraska error and a sacrifice fly by Perrigan a half-inning later.

After coming into pitch in relief, Nebraska’s Lindsey Walljasper came up with a solo shot to left field that extended the lead to 5-3. With the pressure mounting on, Webber came up in the clutch with the bases loaded. Her sec-ond home run of the year went to right field, with the grand slam allowing the Shockers to take the go-ahead lead 7-5.

With the grand slam, Webber set a new career high in RBI with four, while Huecker tied her career high with two hits in each game of the doublehead-er. Huecker is on a five-game hit streak, coming up with two hits in three of those five contests.

Hailey Martinez came up with her second win of the season after coming in a relief role, while McDonald claimed her third save of the season after three innings pitched and striking out two batters.

CLEARWATER, Fla. - UT-Chattanooga started the game with two singles in the top of the first, scoring the game’s first run off a groundout to shortstop. After a hit by pitch, single by Perrigan and a walk to load the bases for the Shockers a half-inning later, Ryleigh Buck drew the tying run after getting hit by a pitch to make it a 1-1 game.

Three consecutive walks by Caitlin Bingham allowed the Mocs to load the bases in the top of the third, scoring the go-ahead run off another walk. A single to left center brought in another run, but Hailey Martinez came in, in relief and forced an infield fly and a groundout to retire the side.

Wichita State came up with two singles in the bottom of the fourth, but the Mocs forced a strikeout to prevent any damage. The Shockers loaded the bases in the bottom of the sixth thanks to two singles and a hit by pitch with Perrigan and Bailee Nickerson due up. The Mocs, however, came up with the force out at home and forced a fly out to right field to leave the runners stranded.

Glover came up with a hit in her 10th straight game, marking the second time this season where a player had a hitting streak of 10 games (Nickerson from Feb. 15-March 2). Martinez tied her career high for strikeouts, last collecting three on on March 3, 2018 at Nebraska.

CLEARWATER, Fla. - Sydney McKinney and Madison Perrigan led the way of-fensively for the Shockers, each coming up with three combined hits in the two games. McKinney tied her career high of two hits against North Dakota State, last obtaining that mark against Virginia Tech on Feb. 8.

After a single by Buck and a walk put runners on first and second, McKinney came up with a single and the game’s first run was scored off a throwing error by the pitcher in the top of the second inning. The Shockers extended their lead to two after a passed ball scored Laurie Derrico from third in the top of third.

NDSU responded a half-inning later, scoring off a two-out single to center field that cut the deficit to one. Following a leadoff single in the bottom of the fifth inning, the Bison snagged the lead off a home run to left field to make it a 3-2 game. NDSU kept the heat on with another single and drawing a walk, with another single to center field scoring two more runs to extend the Bison’s lead to three.

A leadoff single in the top of the sixth by Nickerson gave the Shockers life, with Neleigh Herring following with a single up the middle as a pinch hitter that cut the deficit to two. McKinney followed with a double down the left field line, making it a one-run game.

After getting the leadoff runner on via a hit by pitch, the Bison scored an insurance run on an RBI double to left center in the bottom of the sixth. McKinney came up with her second game of two hits or more of the season, with Buck extending her hit streak to four games.

CLEARWATER, Fla. - Madison Perrigan led the way offensively, totaling four hits with three RBIs. Erin McDonald picked up her fifth win of the season in the victory against Towson to go with four strikeouts.

Towson struck first, leading off the top of the second inning with a double to left center and scoring off a single down the left field line. The Shockers answered back following Perrigan’s leadoff double, with Ryleigh Buck bringing her home on a sacrifice fly to center field.

After going through the next two innings with only one hit, Towson re-gained the lead on a single up the middle following a walk and hit by pitch in the top of the fifth. Wichita State responded again a half-inning later, with Sydney McKinney driving in Neleigh Herring from second on a double to left center.

Towson kept the heat on, going up by two runs in the top of the sixth. Following a walk, Towson drilled a triple to center field that drove in the go-ahead run and scored another insurance run off a Wichita State fielding error.

Asea Webber and Laurie Derrico drew two walks to put the tying run at first base, setting up Perrigan for the go-ahead plate appearance. Perrigan’s fifth bomb of the season, a three-run homer to left field, allowed the Shockers to take a one-run lead and snap a two-game losing streak.

Hailey Martinez made her second start of the season and pitched two innings, with Kaylee Huecker adding a hit that marks seven out of the last eight that she has obtained at least one hit.

CLEARWATER, Fla. - Minnesota jumped to the early lead and never looked back, scoring the game’s first run off a sacrifice fly following a hit by pitch and a walk. The Golden Gophers added to the lead after a wild pitch from McDonald to make it a 2-0 game.

Going scoreless for the next four innings, Minnesota added to its lead in the top of the sixth. A solo home run from Natalie DenHartog to left field pushed the Golden Gophers out in front by three runs.

After limiting the Shockers to just three hits through six innings, Derrico came up with a two-out double that put Wichita State in a position to cut its deficit. Perrigan, however, struck out swinging to leave Derrico stranded at second.

Following a leadoff double, a single looked to give Minnesota its fourth run. Webber, however, made the throw from center field to Perrigan on time at the plate to get the force out and keep things knotted at 3-0. Minnesota’s MaKenna Partain made up for it in her next at-bat, smashing a two-run home run to center field that gave the Golden Gophers a five-run advan-tage.

CLEARWATER, Fla. - Monmouth jumped out to an early six-run lead and would never trail, handing Wichita State a 7-4 defeat in the final game of the USF Spring Invitational Sunday morning.

Asea Webber led the Shockers offensively with two hits in her four at-bats, with Erin McDonald recording six strikeouts in the circle.

Monmouth struck first in the top of the first inning, scoring the game’s first run off a sacrifice fly to center field following a walk and a double. After the runner from second moved to third on a passed ball, another sacrifice fly to center added to the Hawks’ lead, making it 2-0.

A solo home run from Deangie Jimenez in the top of the second added to Monmouth’s lead and allowed the Hawks to move ahead 3-0. The come-back attempt started with Sydney McKinney tallying her second career triple in the bottom of the third, scoring off a Wylie Glover groundout to second base to cut the deficit to two.

The Hawks answered back a half-inning later, coming up with a triple and drawing two walks to load the bases. Lindsey Baron’s triple to center field drove in three runs and allowed Monmouth to take a commanding five-run lead.

Following the second triple of the game for the Hawks in the top of the fifth, the Hawks added an insurance run off a single to left center that pushed the lead to 7-1. Neleigh Herring responded with her third home run of the season, cutting the lead to five with no outs in the bottom of the fifth.

Webber gave the Shockers offensive life in the bottom of the sixth, leading things off with a double to right field. Ryleigh Buck beat out a throw to shortstop to drive in Webber from third and cutting the deficit to four. The Shockers took advantage of an error by the Monmouth third baseman, allowing another run to score.

Glover reached on an error in the bottom of the seventh, but was thrown out in an attempt to take second base. Monmouth would force a fly out to end the game with the three-run victory.

McDonald had her fourth game of the season with six or more strikeouts.

WICHITA, Kan. - Trailing by four runs heading into the bottom of the sixth, the Wichi-ta State softball team forced extra innings in Wednesday night’s game against Kansas at Wilkins Stadium.

With runners at the corners in the bottom of the ninth, Neleigh Herring came up with a left field single to drive in the walk-off run that defeated the Jayhawks 11-10. Herring went 2-for-3 at the plate while Asea Webber had a career high four hits in her four at-bats.

Caitlin Bingham came up with her 10th win of the season, tallying five strikeouts and only allowing one hit in four innings of relief.

The Shockers struck first by coming up with five runs in the second inning, with a Sydney McKinney single to center field allowing Herring to score the game’s first run. After two runs scored off a passed ball and a bases loaded walk, Ryleigh Buck came up with a single to left center that drove in two runs and gave the Shockers a commanding five-run lead.

KU was quick to respond, however, scoring four runs off a grand slam following two singles and a walk in the top of the third. The Jayhawks tied the game in the top of the fifth, scoring the tying run off a single to center field.

Miranda Rodriguez of KU followed up with a double to center field that scored two more runs, with pinch hitter Jennifer Marwitz singling to right center to give the Jay-hawks a three-run lead. KU capped off the top of the fifth inning with its fifth run of the inning, extending the lead off a single down the left field line to take a 9-5 lead.

Wichita State refused to go away, answering back in the bottom of the sixth. After McKinney singled to shortstop, Webber came up with her third home run of the sea-son that cut the deficit to two runs. Madison Perrigan kept the inning alive by reaching base on a KU error, advancing to second after a passed ball.

Bailee Nickerson drove in Perrigan from second in the next at-bat with a single up the middle, making it a 9-8 game heading into the seventh inning. KU got the leadoff runner on with a hit by pitch, advancing to second base off a wild pitch. The Jayhawks added an insurance run, scoring off a single up the middle to make it a 10-8 lead.

Needing to score two runs to keep the game alive, Wichita State did exactly that a half-inning later. Wylie Glover and Webber came up with two one-out singles to put runners at the corners, with Glover scoring a run off a passed ball. With the bases loaded following Perrigan’s walk, Nickerson came up in the clutch once again and drove in the tying run off a single to shortstop.

KU managed to put a runner 60 feet away from scoring the go-ahead run in the top of the eighth, but Bingham came up with a strikeout to retire the side and keep the game tied. Wichita State looked to snag the lead, but Brynn Minor struck out Laurie Derrico with the bases loaded to force a ninth inning.

Perrigan led off the bottom of the ninth with a single, advancing to second after a sacrifice bunt by Nickerson. Following Buck’s single to left field, Herring put the nail in the coffin and drove in the go-ahead run.

The Shockers came up with their season high for hits with 16, marking the fifth time this season where they scored double digit runs. Herring’s walk-off is the first walk-off winning run since April 20, 2018, where the Shockers had a home run to defeat UCF.

Nickerson led with three RBIs and the Shockers had five players obtain two or more hits. McKinney tied her career high with three hits, coming up with her third RBI of the season in the process.

WICHITA, Kan. - With the conference leader coming to Wichita to open up American Athletic Conference play, the Wichita State softball team made its opening statement. The Shockers run-ruled the Houston Cougars 13-5 and won the opening game of the series at Wilkins Stadium.

Ryleigh Buck tied her career high with three hits and Kaylee Huecker came up with her first career home run to lead the Shockers offensively. In her 14th start of the season, Caitlin Bingham collected her 11th win of the season after pitching 4.0 innings.

Houston looked to strike first with a runner on third in the top of the first and second inning, but Bingham forced a groundout to third and fly out to left field to keep the game scoreless.

Buck drove in the game’s first run in the bottom of the second inning after coming up with a left field single, with Neleigh Herring following up with a double that allowed Buck to score. Sydney McKinney kept the hit parade going with a double to left field that drove in Herring from second, giving the Shockers a 3-0 lead.

After Wichita State scored another run off a passed ball, Madison Perrigan’s sixth home run of the season allowed the Shockers to move ahead 6-0 in the bottom of the third. Huecker added three more runs with her first home run of the season, making it a nine-run Shocker lead.

Bailee Nickerson kept the momentum going in the bottom of the fourth, driving in two runs off a double to center field. The Shockers would score another run off a Houston error, making it a 12-0 inning with Houston’s last half-inning looming.

The Cougars, however, kept the game alive by scoring their first run off a left field double to start the top of the fifth. After Houston scored on a passed ball, Sarah Barker advanced two runs thanks to a triple to center field. Another double allowed Houston to score their fifth run of the inning, extending the game by cutting the lead down to seven.

Wichita State managed to build its lead back up again, drawing three straight walks before scoring the run-rule run with a bases loaded walk in the bottom of the fifth inning.

Perrigan was 2-for-2 at the plate and scored a game-high three runs. McKin-ney extended her hit streak to seven games, her longest of the season and her career.

WICHITA, Kan. - Trailing by three runs early in the fourth inning, Wichita State overcame the deficit heading into the final half-inning against Hous-ton. The Cougars, however, snatched the win by scoring two runs in the top of the seventh to even the series at 1-1 with a 5-4 win over the Shockers on Saturday at Wilkins Stadium.

Ryleigh Buck led the way offensively with two hits in her two at-bats, driving in two runs off a home run. Erin McDonald pitched her fifth complete game of the season, to go with three strikeouts.

Houston started the top of the first inning with a leadoff double to left field, scoring the game’s first run off a passed ball. A single from Savannah Heeb-ner to left field extended the Cougar lead 2-0, adding another run in the top of the third thanks to a double.

The Shockers responded in the bottom of the fourth, coming up with a four-run inning. Asea Webber got things started with a leadoff single, with a dou-ble from Laurie Derrico putting runners in scoring position and the tying run at the plate. A single from Madison Perrigan down the right field line scored the first run for Wichita State, with Derrico scoring off a Houston error.

With the tying run at second, Buck brought Bailee Nickerson home with her fourth home run of the season and gave the Shockers the 4-3 lead. Houston would get a leadoff runner on base in the top of the fifth, but McDonald came up with a strikeout and forced a groundout to second after the sacri-fice bunt to retire the side.

After Wichita State forced Houston into a 1-2-3 inning in the top of the sixth, the Cougars prevented the Shockers from scoring any insurance runs by turning a grounder to strand the runner at third a half-inning later. Following a one-out walk in the top of the seventh, Houston’s Arielle James came up with a double to put the go-ahead run on second base.

Heebner hit a grounder that looked to score the tying run, but Kaylee Huecker made the fielder’s choice play at second and threw the Houston runner out at the plate to protect the Shockers’ lead with one out to go. The Cougars came up with the play that turned into the decider, with pinch hitter Rachel Hill hitting a single to center field that scored the tying and go-ahead run.

The Cougars forced the Shockers into a 1-2-3 inning in the bottom of the seventh to steal the win and give the Shockers their first home loss of the season. Webber came up with her seventh multi-hit game of the season and Buck collected her sixth game obtaining two or more hits.

WICHITA, Kan. - Wichita State was held to just two hits and a .117 batting average on Sunday as Houston claimed the series with an 8-0 win at Wilkins Stadium.

Ryleigh Buck and Neleigh Herring each collected a hit for the Shockers, while Hailey Martinez and Erin McDonald each recorded a strikeout.

Houston got things started with two leadoff walks in the top of the first inning, scoring its first run off a wild pitch. The Cougars added to their lead off double by Savannah Heebner to make it a 2-0 lead, with a sacrifice fly turning into another run for Houston.

The Cougars looked to strike again after another leadoff walk, but a leaping catch into the wall in center field by Asea Webber became the first of three consecutive outs that kept the deficit at three. Wichita State looked for life in the bottom of the second after Herring’s single and a Kaylee Huecker walk, but the Cougars came up with a strikeout to retire the side.

Following a single and a double by Houston, the Cougars scored another run off a Shocker error in the top of the third. After a hit by pitch and a fielder’s choice put runners at first and second. Houston’s Sarah Barker came up with a home run to right field that extended the lead 7-0.

A one-out double gave the Shockers some life in the bottom of the fourth inning with one out, but Houston forced a fly out and a pop up in foul territory to end the inning. After another double by Heebner and a single, Houston came up with another run off an RBI single that allowed the Cou-gars to move ahead by eight.

The Shockers looked to avoid the run rule, but Houston forced Wichita State into the first two outs in the bottom of the fifth and came down with a pop up after a walk to end the game. This is the second time since the Shockers joined the American Athletic Conference that Houston has claimed the series 2-1, claiming the outing at their place last season.

With Buck’s double, she now has a six-game hitting streak, with her previous season-long being three games.

WICHITA, Kan. - After leading by three runs through the first three innings, the Wichita State softball team couldn’t hang on to its lead against No. 21 Oklahoma State. The Cowgirls scored six unanswered runs to come away with a 9-6 victory over the Shockers at Wilkins Stadium on Wednesday night.

The Shockers had three players collect two hits, with Ryleigh Buck going 2-for-3 at the plate and recording her fourth game in the last five outings with at least two hits.

Forcing the Cowgirls into two shutout innings to open the game, Wichita State jumped out to an early lead. A single from Laurie Derrico and a walk from Bailee Nickerson set up Neleigh Herring with her first career triple, driving in the game’s first two runs in the bottom of the second. Another single from Kaylee Huecker scored Herring from third, putting the Shockers ahead 3-0.

With the Shockers scoring their fourth run of the inning off a wild pitch, Oklahoma State responded by starting the top of the third with a leadoff walk and a double to put runners in scoring position. After a groundout to shortstop scored the Cowgirls’ first run, Chyenne Factor hit her sixth home run of the season to cut the lead to one.

Adding to the lead off a fielding error by Oklahoma State, the Shockers ex-tended the advantage to 6-3 thanks to an Asea Webber single up the middle that scored Huecker from third. The Cowgirls responded with four runs off four hits a half-inning later, with three singles allowing Oklahoma State to cut the lead to two.

Another single to left field allowed the Cowgirls to cut the advantage to one run, with two bases loaded walks giving Oklahoma State a 7-6 lead. Lauren Mills called in to relief pitch, where she retired four of her first six batters and kept the deficit at one run heading into the bottom of the fifth inning.

Pinch hitter Sydney Springfield came up with a one-out double for Oklaho-ma State in right center and Michaela Richbourg hit her eighth home run of the season off the foul pole that gave the Cowgirls a three-run lead. Wichita State came up with three singles in the final two innings, but Oklahoma State held the Shockers down to get their first win in Wichita since March 23, 2016.

Buck extended her hit streak to seven games, while Derrico came up with her 40th multi-hit game of her career after going 2-for-4 at the plate. Wednesday also marked the fifth time in the last six games where Herring has obtained at least one hit.

WICHITA, Kan. - The Wichita State softball team struggled to put runs on the scoreboard in Saturday’s game against UConn at Wilkins Stadium, resulting in a 4-0 shutout.

This was the second consecutive conference game where the Shockers failed to score a run, coming off a six-run outing against Oklahoma State on Wednesday. Kaylee Huecker led the Shockers with two doubles in three at-bats, marking the first time in her career where she had two doubles in one game. The last Shocker to collect two doubles in one game was Neleigh Herring when she collected two at Louisiana Tech on Feb. 16.

Sydney McKinney added two hits in three at-bats, marking the her sixth multi-hit game of her career. Erin McDonald pitched her sixth complete game of the season and added a strikeout.

After forcing the Huskies into three straight outs to start the top of the first, Wichita State managed to get runners at the corners off a McKinney single and Ryleigh Buck getting on base following a hit by pitch. UConn forced a pop up to the shortstop to keep the game scoreless.

The Huskies responded in the top of the second by collecting a leadoff single down the left field line, with Olivia Sappington obtaining her first home run of the season to right field that gave UConn a 2-0 lead. Herring responded with a leadoff single a half-inning later, but UConn shut the Shockers down by coming up with a 1-6-3 double play and a strikeout to retire the side.

UConn extended its lead in the top of the third by getting another leadoff runner on following a Shocker error, with Briana Marcelino bringing in the two runs off a home run to center field. The Shockers loaded the bases off an error, single and walk in the bottom of the third, but two strikeouts and a groundout to shortstop once again forced Wichita State to go down without a run on the board.

Marybeth Olson retired eight straight Shocker batters with one out in the bottom of the seventh before Huecker came up with her second double of the day to give the Shockers life. After a pop up to shortstop, McKinney drew a walk and Webber reached on an error to load the bases and bringing the tying run to the plate. UConn got what they needed, however, and forced a fly out to center field to end the game.

WICHITA, Kan. - After a scoreless first inning, UConn carried its momentum from Friday into the top of the second inning by getting on the board first. Kiwi McDaniel hit her first home run of the season to right center, giving the Huskies an early one-run lead.

McDaniel followed up with a leadoff double in the top of the fourth, with Olivia Sappington driving in two more runs off a home run to right field to make it a 3-0 lead. Three straight walks loaded the bases for the Huskies, with a fourth walk bringing in their fourth run of the game.

The Shockers responded in the bottom of the fifth inning, with Wylie Glover coming up with a leadoff single up the middle. After Madison Perrigan drew a walk, Buck doubled to right center to cut the deficit to two runs.

UConn looked to add to its lead in the top of the seventh, getting runners on second and third following an error and a double. Two groundouts, however, stranded the runners and kept the Shockers only two runs down. Wichita State was forced into three straight outs in the final half-inning and held to only one hit in the final two innings that allowed the Huskies to come away with the win.

Following a shutout inning in the top of the fourth, Mizzou got the leadoff runner on one inning later off a Shocker fielding error. A double to left field by Mizzou’s Jazmyn Rollin drove in two runs and gave the Tigers the lead that they would not give up for the rest of the game. Mizzou scored two more runs off a fielding error by Wichita State, making it a 5-1 lead.

Mizzou kept the momentum going in the top of the sixth, driving in two more runs off a single after a walk and right field single. The Shockers were held to a .200 team batting average and gave up eight walks for the first time since March 10 against Nebraska.

WICHITA, Kan. - The Shockers totaled 10 hits in the two outings, with Bailee Nickerson and Wylie Glover coming up with a multi-hit game. Laurie Derrico hit her fifth home run of the season in game two, putting her three home runs away from becoming the all-time home runs leader in Shocker Softball history.

Erin McDonald started her 13th game of the season only giving up one hit through the first three innings, resulting in three shutout innings to start game two. After a single by Wylie Glover a half-inning later, Asea Webber launched her fourth home run of the season to give the Shockers a two-run lead.

Mizzou quickly responded with a solo home run in the top of the fifth in-ning, courtesy of Rollin, that cut the Wichita State lead to one. The Shockers forced Mizzou into six straight outs, but the Tigers led off the top of the sixth inning with a single. After a walk, Mizzou’s Kim Wert hit a three-run home run to left field to swing the lead over to the Tigers.

Hatti Moore followed that shot in her next at-bat, hitting her fourth home run of the season to extend Mizzou’s lead to 5-2. Wichita State responded a half-inning later, with Derrico hitting a home run that cut the lead to two runs. With two outs, Missouri hit a double and Wert hit her second home run of the day to give the Tigers the four-run advantage.

ORLANDO, Fla. - The Wichita State softball team took an early lead against American Athletic Conference leader UCF on Friday, but the Knights came back to score three unanswered runs and defeat the Shockers 3-2.

Sydney McKinney recorded her eighth multi-hit game of the season, going 2-for-4 at the plate. Erin McDonald pitched her ninth game where she went six or more innings, posting three strikeouts in the process.

After a double by McKinney, Madison Perrigan drove her home off a single up the middle to give the Shockers the early one-run lead. UCF attempted to get going early a half-inning later with a leadoff single, but McDonald forced a fly out, groundout and a strikeout to keep the Shockers ahead.

UCF forced the Shockers into a 1-2-3 inning in the top of the second, responding on the offensive end with two consecutive singles a half-inning later. A fly out from Kyra Klarkowski tied the game, with a single to right field from Erin Emanuel scoring the go-ahead run for the Knights.

Two singles and a walk loaded the bases for Wichita State in the bottom of the third with one out, but UCF forced an infield fly to the shortstop and a fly out to left field to leave the runners stranded. UCF responded with an RBI double following a hit by pitch, giving the Knights a two-run advantage.

A walk drawn by Wylie Glover and a single by Ryleigh Buck allowed the Shockers to strike with no outs. UCF, however, came up with a pick off play to second and forced a strikeout and a groundout to second to prevent any damage to its lead.

The Shockers continued to fight in the last half-inning, with Mauriana Jamele coming up with a pinch hit single to lead things off. After advancing to second off a passed ball, the Shockers drove in another run off a sacrifice grounder by Buck. UCF forced the Shockers into a fly out to center field to end the game.

Buck extended her hit streak to five games in her first trip back to UCF since transferring from the program in the fall of her freshman season.

ORLANDO, Fla. - After UCF forced extra innings, the Wichita State softball team scored three runs in the 10th inning to snag a 6-3 win on Saturday afternoon for its first conference road win of the season.

Madison Perrigan led the way offensively with two hits in five at-bats, while Hailey Martinez tied a career high with three strikeouts in her fourth start of the season. Erin McDonald totaled two strikeouts and obtained her seventh win of the season, pitching the final 4.2 innings.

Martinez recorded two strikeouts without allowing a hit in the first two innings, but UCF collected the game’s first hit off a bunt single to get the Knights’ offense started. Following a sacrifice bunt and a passed ball to advance the runner to third, UCF struck first off a single up the middle to take the one-run lead.

After two singles and a fielder’s choice loaded the bases for Wichita State in the top of the fourth, the Shockers scored off a UCF error. The Knights responded in the bottom of the fifth by loading the bases following a walk, fielder’s choice and error, eventually taking back the lead off a sacrifice grounder to the shortstop.

Laurie Derrico and Caitlin Bingham got on base in the top of the sixth by drawing walks, with the Shockers tying the score again off a UCF error. Com-ing in to pinch hit, Mauriana Jamele came in the clutch and hit an RBI single to right field that gave the Shockers their first lead of the game 3-2.

UCF responded with a leadoff double to left field, advancing to third base off a sacrifice bunt. Brooke Barlow came up with the RBI triple to tie the game at three, but McDonald forced a groundout to first base and a strike-out to prevent any more damage.

The Shockers were retired in order in the top of the sixth, with UCF re-sponding by drawing a one out walk and a single to third base. McDonald, however, moved the game into extra innings by forcing UCF to hit into a fly out to center field and a strikeout.

Forcing the Shockers into a 1-2-3 inning in the top of the eighth, UCF re-sponded with a leadoff double to right center to put the potential go-ahead run in scoring position. Like she had been doing the previous two innings, McDonald prevented any damage by forcing three flyouts to the outfield.

After retiring the Shockers into another 1-2-3, UCF got two runners on after a hit by pitch and bunt single. Despite Perrigan missing the pop up toward the batter’s box, she managed to start a 2-6-8 double play. McDonald then forced a fly out to left field following a single, moving the game into the 10th inning.

Buck led things off by reaching second base off a throwing error, with Perrig-an driving in the go-ahead run off a left center double. Derrico followed up in the next at-bat, hitting her sixth home run of the season to extend the Shocker lead to three. UCF managed a double in the bottom half, but could not plate any runs, securing the win for WSU.

ORLANDO, Fla. - Hanging on to a one-run lead heading into the seventh inning, the Wichita State softball team edged out UCF to claim the series with a 2-1 victory on Sunday afternoon.

Mauriana Jamele came up with a season-high two hits in just her third start of the season while Kaylee Huecker tied a career high with two hits in three at-bats. Erin McDonald came up with her eighth win of the season after pitching another complete game and collecting two strikeouts.

Following a single, wild pitch and sacrifice bunt to advance a runner to third, UCF took the early one-run lead in the bottom of the first after a successful double steal attempt. Jamele responded with a leadoff single in the top of the second, with Bailee Nickerson drawing a walk in the next at-bat. Huecker came up with a single to left field to drive in the tying run, but UCF tagged out both Wichita State runners after the play to end the inning without further damage.

McDonald retired six of the next seven UCF batters before Wichita State had offensive momentum in the top of the fourth, with Laurie Derrico and Jamele coming up with singles and advancing in scoring position off a passed ball. After Nickerson got out 2-4-3-6 putout, UCF tagged Derrico out at home and forced a fly out to keep the game tied.

Continuing her dominance in the circle, McDonald only allowed a single in the next two innings to keep things tied at one run heading into the sixth in-ning. After coming in the clutch by driving in the go-ahead run in Saturday’s victory, Madison Perrigan once again came up with the play the Shockers needed in the top of the sixth. Perrigan came up with a solo home run to left field that drove in the game winning run.

After Wichita State forced UCF into two more ground outs and caught the runner stealing, the Knights looked to snatch the victory by drawing two walks with one out in the bottom of the seventh. Hitting a deep ball into left field, Nickerson came up with a catch in left field for the second out with UCF runners advancing to second and third. McDonald, however, would deny the Knights a chance for a come back by forcing Erin Emmanuel into a line out to second base to end the game.

Derrico extended her hit streak to four games, with seven of Wichita State’s nine batters coming up with at least one hit. Derrico was also one putout shy of matching her career high, coming up with four on Sunday.
