QUICK HITS
l With seven seniors on the roster in 2017, this ties the 2005 Texas Longhorns squad for the most seniors on the roster in a single season in program history. That 2005 senior class consisted of pitcher Lizi Sowers, third baseman Wynter Turner, outfielder Lacy Robinson, outfielder Monica Askew, outfielder Melanie Jarrett, pitcher Amy Bradford and first baseman Alexis Garcia. That group (with a junior Cat Osterman throwing in the circle) went 49-13 overall, finished third in the Big 12 and advanced to the WCWS. l Talk about the definition of a true pitching STAFF. After the opening five games of the 2017 season, Texas has already utilized ALL FIVE pitchers on its roster. Keep this in mind, in the history of the program, the Longhorns have only used five pitchers during an entire season on three occasions: 2009, 2005 and 1998. l Several Texas players enter this weekend with impressive streaks going. Sophomore Reagan Hathaway is currently riding career-long seven-game hitting and 15-game reached base streaks dating back to the end of the 2016 campaign, while seniors Devon Tunning and Stephanie Wong each reached in all five games to begin 2017. l Texas preps to enter the 2017 Texas Invitational having scored in 38 consecutive contests dating back to a 1-0 shutout loss to Iowa on March 16, 2016, in Honolulu, Hawai’i, during the 2016 Rainbow Wahine Classic. The Longhorns need to score in all five games during the Texas Invitational to tie for the second-longest consecutive-game scoring streak (stretching over more than one season) in school history (43 from April 23, 1997 to March 22, 1998). The longest such streak in school history is 56 contests, established from May 4, 2013-April 18, 2014. l Over the past two seasons the nucleus of this season’s Longhorns squad has demonstrated a resilience and “never quit” attitude in fighting back from deficits. Texas owns 25 come-from-behind victories (those where UT trailed at ANY point in a game) and 10 total “true” walk-off wins combined over the 2015 & 2016 campaigns, including three walk-offs during last season’s Texas Classic. l The Longhorns should have plenty of pinch-hitting threats at their disposal this year as the top three options off the bench return for 2017. Sophomore Bekah Alcozer led the way last season in UT pinch-hitting at .462 (6-for-13), with seniors Taylor McAllister (.333 on 5-for-15) and Mickenzi Krpec (.333 on 4-for-12) close behind. In all, of the 22 total pinch hits Texas managed in 2016, players who combined for 19 of those return this season. l After week one, Texas remains among those teams “receiving votes” in both the USA Today/National Fastpitch Coaches Association and ESPN.com/USA Softball polls. In the NFCA rankings, UT earned three points, while in the USA Softball listing, the Horns tallied two points.

GAME NOTES LAST YEAR’S TEXAS INVITE Texas went 4-2 during last season’s Texas Invitational with wins over Abilene Christian (two), Illinois and Weber State and a pair of 3-0 losses to Tulsa. Tiarra Davis led the UT pitchers by going 3-1 from the circle with a 0.94 ERA over 22.1 innings of work, while at the plate Taylor McAllister (.556, 5-for-9, two RBIs) and Celina Felix (.368, 7-for-19, five RBIs) posted the highest batting average marks of this year’s returnees. VERSUS THIS WEEKEND’S OPPONENTS Texas has previously faced off against all three of its opponents at this weekend’s Texas Invitational. The Longhorns are 2-1 all-time against South Carolina and 2-0 at McCombs Field, having won the last two overall match-ups in the series. That includes a 6-0 victory during the teams’ most recent meeting back on May 19, 2013, in Austin. UT maintains a perfect 1-0 mark against both Indiana (W, 3-0 on May 20, 2006, in Austin) and Louisiana Tech (W, 7-2 on Feb. 15, 2014, in Austin during the Texas Invitational). WE’RE ON A SCORING STREAK Texas preps to enter the 2017 Texas Invitational having scored in 38 consecutive contests dating back to a 1-0 shutout loss to Iowa on March 16, 2016, in Honolulu, Hawai’i, during the 2016 Rainbow Wahine Classic. The Longhorns need to score in all five games during the Texas Invitational to tie for the second-longest consecutivegame scoring streak (stretching over more than one season) in school history (43 from April 23, 1997 to March 22, 1998). The longest such streak in school history is 56 contests, established from May 4, 2013-April 18, 2014. Longest Consecutive Scoring Streaks (over more than one season) 1) 56 games - May 4, 2013 at Oklahoma State to April 18, 2014 at Oklahoma 2) 43 games - April 23, 1997 at UTSA to March 22, 1998 vs. Arizona 3) 38 games - March 17, 2016 to CURRENT 4) 37 games - Feb. 10, 2011 vs. Louisville to April 10, 2011 at Nebraska 5) 36 games - May 21, 2011 vs. Louisiana-Lafayette to April 6, 2012 vs. Missouri 36 games - Feb. 4, 1998 vs. St. Edward’s to March 22, 1998 vs. Arizona HELMET STICKERS FOR TERRY The Longhorns lost a member of its family this past offseason as Texas softball radio broadcaster Terry Lewis passed away suddenly. A true fan of all things Burnt Orange & White, he started calling UT games back in 2013 as the Burnt Orange & White made an impressive run to the semifinals at the Women’s College World Series. His dedication to the program continued all the way through the 2016 campaign, the first that saw every game home and away broadcast both on the web and back in Austin through the Austin Sports Network. Because of what he meant to everyone associated with Texas softball, the team is wearing helmet stickers throughout the 2017 season that say “TL” to honor Terry. SEASON OPENERS = WINS Texas owns an INCREDIBLE season-opening winning streak dating all the way back to the initial varsity season for the program in 1997. The Longhorns have won ALL 21 of their season openers, including high-

2017 TEXAS SOFTBALL GAME NOTES profile wins over No. 3 UCLA (2007), Florida State (2009), No. 20 DePaul (2010), Louisville (2011) and No. 17 LSU (2014). During that stretch, Texas has registered 13 shutouts and outscored its opponents by a combined 141-11. The streak grew during the 2017 season as UT blanked Colorado State on Feb. 10, 8-0 (5 inn.). “WHY KNOT TEXAS 2017?” That’s the new motto coined by this year’s team. Back in January, new assistant coach Tripp MacKay tied knots in the ends of black ropes, that are being worn around the wrist by each member of the squad and coaching/ support staff this season, to represent “holding the rope,” in supporting each other through good times and bad. Coach Clark also asked the team during the preseason to strive for consistent effort and a championship mindset throughout 2017. WELCOME BACK ERICA! After missing the entire 2016 season because of a rib injury on her right side, redshirt sophomore Erica Wright ihas now made her return to the circle. During last weekend’s Texas Classic, the Huntington, Texas, native allowed two earned runs on just two hits with three strikeouts over five combined innings of work against #16/14 Minnesota and Maryland. After being cleared by doctors back in the fall, the right-hander began throwing again during October of 2016 and continues in an attempt to work her way back into her freshman form. Back during her rookie campaign in 2015, the NFCA All-Central Region selection served as Texas’ ace, posting an 18-9 overall record, a 2.42 ERA and 178 strikeouts over 170.2 innings with seven solo shutouts and 14 complete games. DAUNTING SCHEDULE AHEAD Texas is challenging itself schedule-wise during the upcoming 2017 campaign with 28 games slated against 16 teams that reached the 2016 NCAA Field of 64 (Oklahoma, UCLA, Arizona, Washington, Missouri, Oklahoma State, South Carolina, Long Beach State, Baylor, Cal State Fullerton, Tennessee, Minnesota, Texas State, McNeese State, Arizona State and Notre Dame). EIGHT OF THE GAMES AGAINST 2016 NCAA TEAMS WILL BE CONTESTED BY THE END OF FEBRUARY! Along the way, the Longhorns will face-off against a pair of last season’s Women’s College World Series participants in eventual national champion Oklahoma and UCLA as well as five NCAA Super Regional qualifiers (Oklahoma, UCLA, Arizona, Washington and Missouri). LOADS OF RANKED TEAMS ON THE SLATE! In all, Texas will face NINE MEMBERS OF BOTH THE NFCA AND USA SOFTBALL PRESEASON TOP 25 POLLS (24 total games against NFCA poll teams and 23 against USA Softball poll teams) as well as four teams receiving votes in either ranking (Oklahoma State, South Carolina, Cal State Fullerton, Arizona State). NFCA Top 25 Teams on the Schedule: #1 Oklahoma (3 games), #8 UCLA (1 game), #10 Arizona (3 games), #13 Washington (1 game), #15 Tennessee (1 game), #16 Minnesota (2 games), #17 Missouri (1 game), #21 Baylor (3 games), #22 Notre Dame (1 game) USA Softball Top 25 Teams on the Schedule: #1 Oklahoma (3 games), #8 UCLA (1 game), #12 Arizona (3 games), #13 Washington (1 game), #14 Minnesota (2 games), #15 Tennessee (1 game), #19 Missouri (1 game), #21 Baylor (3 games), #22 Notre Dame (1 game) NEW FACE IN THE DUGOUT During the offseason, Texas head coach Connie Clark brought in former Scrap Yard Dawgs (NPF) Director of Player Development/Co-Head Coach and former University of Oklahoma hitting coach Tripp MacKay to replace the departed Corrie Hill as an assistant for the Longhorns. During a stint stretching from 2007-2015, he helped guide the Sooners to a 389-97 overall record, eight consecutive NCAA postseason appearances, including four Women’s College World Series berths (national runner-up in 2012), five Big 12 Conference regular-season titles, two Big 12 Conference Tournament Championship crowns and the 2013 NCAA Division I National Championship. For his efforts, he shared 2013 NFCA National Coaching Staff of the Year honors and four straight NFCA Regional Coaching Staff of the Year (2012, 2013, 2014, 2015) accolades. Among the numerous individual offensive standouts MacKay helped tutor at Oklahoma were Lauren Chamberlain, who completed her playing days as the NCAA’s career HR leader (95 HR’s), two-time USA Softball National Collegiate Player of the Year Keilani Ricketts and multi-time All-American Shelby Pendley (finished sixth on the NCAA career HR list with 84). FEARSOME DURING FEBRUARY! Under the guidance of head coach Connie Clark, Texas has proven to be a fearsome force during the opening month of February. The Longhorns hold a stellar 250-88-2 overall record during the month, having won approximately 74% of their games. UT is currently 3-2 this season during the month and went 14-2 in February during last season’s 2016 campaign, tying for the fifth-best monthly winning percentage at .875. A list of the program’s top February records are below: Year February Record Year February Record 2003 17-1 (.944) 2011 14-2 (.875) 2006 17-1 (.944) 2005 10-2 (.833) 2013 16-1 (.941) 2007 12-3 (.800) 2012 14-1 (.933) 1997 9-3 (.750) 2016 14-2 (.875) 2009 13-4 (.765) 2010 14-2 (.875) WE DON’T MIND EXTRA SOFTBALL Apparently Texas doesn’t mind having to work a little overtime on the diamond as the Longhorns are 72-41-1 alltime in extra innings and have won nine of their last 13 such match-ups dating back to 2013. The Longhorns were a stellar 4-1 when forced into extra frames in 2016 with eight-inning wins over North Carolina, Arkansas, UTSA and Iowa and an eight-inning loss to No. 18 Arizona. LOADS OF PRODUCTION RETURNING Texas is returning five everyday positional starters and 13 letter winners for the 2017 campaign that combined to total 60% of the runs, 64% of the hits, 57% of the doubles, 55% of the HR’s and 65% of the RBIs from last season’s 38-win squad. UT will also be bringing back all three starting pitchers from last year and has returned sophomore right-hander Erica Wright, who was forced to redshirt during the 2016 campaign because of an injury. AND THE BIG 12 PRESEASON SURVEY...SAYS! Texas was chosen to finish second (with one first-place vote) in the annual Big 12 Conference preseason poll as voted by the league’s coaches. UT has now been picked to finish in the Big 12 Conference’s top three for seven consecutive seasons. The Sooners nabbed the top position for the eighth time in the last nine seasons after reaping six of the seven possible first-place votes (coaches couldn’t vote for their own team) and 36 total points. The Longhorns garnered the remaining first-place nod and 30 total points in rating second. Baylor was third with 26 total points, while Oklahoma State (22 points), Kansas (14 points), Texas Tech (13 points) and Iowa State (six points) rounded out positions four through seven in the preseason league standings.

TURN ON THE TUBE TO SEE TEXAS IN 2017 As usual, there will be plenty of chances to see Texas softball play on television in 2017, 26 in all. Longhorn Network, the 24/7 home for UT athletics, will broadcast 25 of 26 Texas home softball games this season. FOX Sports Net (Regional) will show UT’s home match-up vs. Baylor on May 6. Additional TV dates could be added as the season continues. A QUICK LOOK TO THE FUTURE! Back in November of 2016, Texas head softball coach Connie Clark and the University of Texas softball program announced the signing of four student-athletes to National Letters of Intent (NLI) for the 2017-18 academic school year. Signees include (Position/Hometown/High school/Travel Ball Team): Ariana Adams (RHP/ Magnolia, Texas/Magnolia West/Scrap Yard Dawgs), Janae Jefferson (OF/Humble, Texas/Nimitz Senior/Texas Aces Express Gold), Chloe Romero (RHP/Helendale, Calif./Academy of Careers & Exploration/California Cruisers) and Mary Katherine Tedder (IF/Hoover, Ala./Spain Park/Birmingham Thunderbolts). A native of Magnolia, Texas, Adams ventures to the Forty Acres with numerous accolades from the diamond in tow. During her interscholastic pitching career for head coach Sheryl Tamborello at Magnolia West H.S., she has registered a combined 1.20 ERA with 432 strikeouts over 397 innings of work. As a junior in 2016, Adams was selected as first-team Texas Girls Coaches Association (TGCA) Class 5A All-State, second-team Texas Sports Writers Association (TSWA) Class 5A AllState and second-team National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) All-South Central Region after setting a school record with 19 wins to go along with a 0.79 ERA and 153 K’s despite missing two months because of an injury. She is a three-time All-District 19-5A choice, winning All-District Pitcher of the Year accolades in 2016, as well as a three-time all-county selection. Adams also helped lead her travel ball team, the Scrap Yard Dawgs, to first place finishes in the Ronald McDonald, Hall of Fame and Colorado Sparkler events. A three-sport athlete, Jefferson has earned letters in softball, volleyball and basketball at Nimitz Senior H.S. in Houston, Texas. On the diamond, the 5-4 outfielder is a three-time All-District 18-6A selection and earned All-Greater Houston honors as a freshman after hitting .617 overall with 16 doubles, 11 triples, 16 stolen bases and 27 RBIs. During her sophomore campaign in 2014, Jefferson registered the most hits and highest average in her school’s history by batting at a .727 clip with 74 hits, 18 doubles, 13 triples, four HR’s, 21 steals and 37 RBIs. After managing a .687 average as a junior in 2015 (70 hits, 21 doubles, 15 triples, 31 RBIs) and swiping 18 bases, she enters her final campaign just 14 steals from having the most stolen bases in school history. On the basketball hardwood, Jefferson has been named first-team All-District 18-6A (2015) and earned an All-Greater Houston nomination, while on the volleyball court, she is a three-time All-District 18-6A choice (2013, 2014, 2016). For her Texas Aces Express Gold travel ball team and head coach David McCorkle, Jefferson has helped power her squad to first place at the 2014 Triple Crown Tournament in Atlanta, Ga., and fourth place at the 2014 ASA Nationals. During her most recent travel ball season, she batted .488 overall with 42 hits, eight doubles, four triples and 24 RBIs while swiping 22 bases and striking out just three times. A multi-sport athlete that has earned letters in softball, soccer, volleyball and cross country at the Academy of Careers & Exploration in Helendale, Calif., Romero has made quite a name for herself on the diamond. During her three-year career, she has managed a 1.25 combined ERA from the circle with 702 strikeouts over 387 innings of work, while also batting .553 with 135 total hits, 154 runs scored, 46 stolen bases and a .910 slugging percentage. Listed 20th on FloSoftball’s list of the “Hot 100 2017 Softball Recruits,” Romero recently picked up her third career selection to the California Small Schools All-State Team and the All-California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) Southern Section First Team as a junior in 2016 after batting .645 with 49 hits, 51 runs scored, a 1.026 slugging mark and a 0.92 ERA with 237 K’s over 129 innings. During her career, she has helped her high school team to a 2014 CIF Southern Section State title as well as a state finalist berth in 2015. Romero has also picked up a selection as a 2014 MaxPreps Underclass All-American, is a three-time first-team Cross Valley League inclusion and has been named the Cross Valley League Most Valuable Player. She is also the Academy of Careers & Exploration three-mile female record holder and a three-time Cross Valley All-League choice in cross country. With the California Cruisers, Romero has helped her travel ball team to a national finalist berth at the 2016 PGF Premier 18-Under Nationals and to the title at the 2014 PGF Platinum 18-Under event. A product of Hoover, Ala., Tedder also brings along a lofty softball resume to the Forty Acres from a distinguished interscholastic career at Spain Park H.S. Ranked as the No. 25 player in FloSoftball’s “Hot 100 2017 Softball Recruits,” she is coming off a spectacular junior year in 2016 that saw her bat .455 overall with a school record 20 HR’s and 70 RBIs. During that standout 2016 campaign, Tedder also managed 10 doubles, five triples, 66 hits, 48 runs scored, 25 walks and a 1.043 slugging mark while earning a sparkling list of accolades that included: 2016 NFCA Second-Team All-American, NFCA First-Team All-South Region, USA Today Second Team All-American, FloSoftball First-Team All-American, MaxPreps Player of the Year and First-Team Class 7A All-State and All-Super State honors as well as nods as the All-Metro and Over the Mountain Player of the Year and the Alabama Sports Writers Association (ASWA) Alabama 7A Player of the Year. She was also a finalist for Gatorade Player of the Year honors and was recently honored as Spain Park’s Wendy’s Heisman winner. As a sophomore, Tedder was tabbed to the ASWA Second Team, to the NFCA All-Southeast Region squad and earned her second career inclusions to the Birmingham News All-Metro and All-Shelby County squads. Most recently, for her travel ball team the Birmingham Thunderbolts, she contributed a .478 batting mark with six HR’s and 26 RBIs. Off the diamond, Tedder has been a qualifier for state in cross country and a member of the state all-tournament team in bowling.

QUICK HITS
l With seven seniors on the roster in 2017, this ties the 2005 Texas Longhorns squad for the most seniors on the roster in a single season in program history. That 2005 senior class consisted of pitcher Lizi Sowers, third baseman Wynter Turner, outfielder Lacy Robinson, outfielder Monica Askew, outfielder Melanie Jarrett, pitcher Amy Bradford and first baseman Alexis Garcia. That group (with a junior Cat Osterman throwing in the circle) went 49-13 overall, finished third in the Big 12 and advanced to the WCWS. l Talk about the definition of a true pitching STAFF. After the opening five games of the 2017 season, Texas has already utilized ALL FIVE pitchers on its roster. Keep this in mind, in the history of the program, the Longhorns have only used five pitchers during an entire season on three occasions: 2009, 2005 and 1998. l Several Texas players enter this weekend with impressive streaks going. Sophomore Reagan Hathaway is currently riding career-long seven-game hitting and 15-game reached base streaks dating back to the end of the 2016 campaign, while seniors Devon Tunning and Stephanie Wong each reached in all five games to begin 2017. l Texas preps to enter the 2017 Texas Invitational having scored in 38 consecutive contests dating back to a 1-0 shutout loss to Iowa on March 16, 2016, in Honolulu, Hawai’i, during the 2016 Rainbow Wahine Classic. The Longhorns need to score in all five games during the Texas Invitational to tie for the second-longest consecutive-game scoring streak (stretching over more than one season) in school history (43 from April 23, 1997 to March 22, 1998). The longest such streak in school history is 56 contests, established from May 4, 2013-April 18, 2014. l Over the past two seasons the nucleus of this season’s Longhorns squad has demonstrated a resilience and “never quit” attitude in fighting back from deficits. Texas owns 25 come-from-behind victories (those where UT trailed at ANY point in a game) and 10 total “true” walk-off wins combined over the 2015 & 2016 campaigns, including three walk-offs during last season’s Texas Classic. l The Longhorns should have plenty of pinch-hitting threats at their disposal this year as the top three options off the bench return for 2017. Sophomore Bekah Alcozer led the way last season in UT pinch-hitting at .462 (6-for-13), with seniors Taylor McAllister (.333 on 5-for-15) and Mickenzi Krpec (.333 on 4-for-12) close behind. In all, of the 22 total pinch hits Texas managed in 2016, players who combined for 19 of those return this season. l After week one, Texas remains among those teams “receiving votes” in both the USA Today/National Fastpitch Coaches Association and ESPN.com/USA Softball polls. In the NFCA rankings, UT earned three points, while in the USA Softball listing, the Horns tallied two points.

GAME NOTES LAST YEAR’S TEXAS INVITE Texas went 4-2 during last season’s Texas Invitational with wins over Abilene Christian (two), Illinois and Weber State and a pair of 3-0 losses to Tulsa. Tiarra Davis led the UT pitchers by going 3-1 from the circle with a 0.94 ERA over 22.1 innings of work, while at the plate Taylor McAllister (.556, 5-for-9, two RBIs) and Celina Felix (.368, 7-for-19, five RBIs) posted the highest batting average marks of this year’s returnees. VERSUS THIS WEEKEND’S OPPONENTS Texas has previously faced off against all three of its opponents at this weekend’s Texas Invitational. The Longhorns are 2-1 all-time against South Carolina and 2-0 at McCombs Field, having won the last two overall match-ups in the series. That includes a 6-0 victory during the teams’ most recent meeting back on May 19, 2013, in Austin. UT maintains a perfect 1-0 mark against both Indiana (W, 3-0 on May 20, 2006, in Austin) and Louisiana Tech (W, 7-2 on Feb. 15, 2014, in Austin during the Texas Invitational). WE’RE ON A SCORING STREAK Texas preps to enter the 2017 Texas Invitational having scored in 38 consecutive contests dating back to a 1-0 shutout loss to Iowa on March 16, 2016, in Honolulu, Hawai’i, during the 2016 Rainbow Wahine Classic. The Longhorns need to score in all five games during the Texas Invitational to tie for the second-longest consecutivegame scoring streak (stretching over more than one season) in school history (43 from April 23, 1997 to March 22, 1998). The longest such streak in school history is 56 contests, established from May 4, 2013-April 18, 2014. Longest Consecutive Scoring Streaks (over more than one season) 1) 56 games - May 4, 2013 at Oklahoma State to April 18, 2014 at Oklahoma 2) 43 games - April 23, 1997 at UTSA to March 22, 1998 vs. Arizona 3) 38 games - March 17, 2016 to CURRENT 4) 37 games - Feb. 10, 2011 vs. Louisville to April 10, 2011 at Nebraska 5) 36 games - May 21, 2011 vs. Louisiana-Lafayette to April 6, 2012 vs. Missouri 36 games - Feb. 4, 1998 vs. St. Edward’s to March 22, 1998 vs. Arizona HELMET STICKERS FOR TERRY The Longhorns lost a member of its family this past offseason as Texas softball radio broadcaster Terry Lewis passed away suddenly. A true fan of all things Burnt Orange & White, he started calling UT games back in 2013 as the Burnt Orange & White made an impressive run to the semifinals at the Women’s College World Series. His dedication to the program continued all the way through the 2016 campaign, the first that saw every game home and away broadcast both on the web and back in Austin through the Austin Sports Network. Because of what he meant to everyone associated with Texas softball, the team is wearing helmet stickers throughout the 2017 season that say “TL” to honor Terry. SEASON OPENERS = WINS Texas owns an INCREDIBLE season-opening winning streak dating all the way back to the initial varsity season for the program in 1997. The Longhorns have won ALL 21 of their season openers, including high-

2017 TEXAS SOFTBALL GAME NOTES profile wins over No. 3 UCLA (2007), Florida State (2009), No. 20 DePaul (2010), Louisville (2011) and No. 17 LSU (2014). During that stretch, Texas has registered 13 shutouts and outscored its opponents by a combined 141-11. The streak grew during the 2017 season as UT blanked Colorado State on Feb. 10, 8-0 (5 inn.). “WHY KNOT TEXAS 2017?” That’s the new motto coined by this year’s team. Back in January, new assistant coach Tripp MacKay tied knots in the ends of black ropes, that are being worn around the wrist by each member of the squad and coaching/ support staff this season, to represent “holding the rope,” in supporting each other through good times and bad. Coach Clark also asked the team during the preseason to strive for consistent effort and a championship mindset throughout 2017. WELCOME BACK ERICA! After missing the entire 2016 season because of a rib injury on her right side, redshirt sophomore Erica Wright ihas now made her return to the circle. During last weekend’s Texas Classic, the Huntington, Texas, native allowed two earned runs on just two hits with three strikeouts over five combined innings of work against #16/14 Minnesota and Maryland. After being cleared by doctors back in the fall, the right-hander began throwing again during October of 2016 and continues in an attempt to work her way back into her freshman form. Back during her rookie campaign in 2015, the NFCA All-Central Region selection served as Texas’ ace, posting an 18-9 overall record, a 2.42 ERA and 178 strikeouts over 170.2 innings with seven solo shutouts and 14 complete games. DAUNTING SCHEDULE AHEAD Texas is challenging itself schedule-wise during the upcoming 2017 campaign with 28 games slated against 16 teams that reached the 2016 NCAA Field of 64 (Oklahoma, UCLA, Arizona, Washington, Missouri, Oklahoma State, South Carolina, Long Beach State, Baylor, Cal State Fullerton, Tennessee, Minnesota, Texas State, McNeese State, Arizona State and Notre Dame). EIGHT OF THE GAMES AGAINST 2016 NCAA TEAMS WILL BE CONTESTED BY THE END OF FEBRUARY! Along the way, the Longhorns will face-off against a pair of last season’s Women’s College World Series participants in eventual national champion Oklahoma and UCLA as well as five NCAA Super Regional qualifiers (Oklahoma, UCLA, Arizona, Washington and Missouri). LOADS OF RANKED TEAMS ON THE SLATE! In all, Texas will face NINE MEMBERS OF BOTH THE NFCA AND USA SOFTBALL PRESEASON TOP 25 POLLS (24 total games against NFCA poll teams and 23 against USA Softball poll teams) as well as four teams receiving votes in either ranking (Oklahoma State, South Carolina, Cal State Fullerton, Arizona State). NFCA Top 25 Teams on the Schedule: #1 Oklahoma (3 games), #8 UCLA (1 game), #10 Arizona (3 games), #13 Washington (1 game), #15 Tennessee (1 game), #16 Minnesota (2 games), #17 Missouri (1 game), #21 Baylor (3 games), #22 Notre Dame (1 game) USA Softball Top 25 Teams on the Schedule: #1 Oklahoma (3 games), #8 UCLA (1 game), #12 Arizona (3 games), #13 Washington (1 game), #14 Minnesota (2 games), #15 Tennessee (1 game), #19 Missouri (1 game), #21 Baylor (3 games), #22 Notre Dame (1 game) NEW FACE IN THE DUGOUT During the offseason, Texas head coach Connie Clark brought in former Scrap Yard Dawgs (NPF) Director of Player Development/Co-Head Coach and former University of Oklahoma hitting coach Tripp MacKay to replace the departed Corrie Hill as an assistant for the Longhorns. During a stint stretching from 2007-2015, he helped guide the Sooners to a 389-97 overall record, eight consecutive NCAA postseason appearances, including four Women’s College World Series berths (national runner-up in 2012), five Big 12 Conference regular-season titles, two Big 12 Conference Tournament Championship crowns and the 2013 NCAA Division I National Championship. For his efforts, he shared 2013 NFCA National Coaching Staff of the Year honors and four straight NFCA Regional Coaching Staff of the Year (2012, 2013, 2014, 2015) accolades. Among the numerous individual offensive standouts MacKay helped tutor at Oklahoma were Lauren Chamberlain, who completed her playing days as the NCAA’s career HR leader (95 HR’s), two-time USA Softball National Collegiate Player of the Year Keilani Ricketts and multi-time All-American Shelby Pendley (finished sixth on the NCAA career HR list with 84). FEARSOME DURING FEBRUARY! Under the guidance of head coach Connie Clark, Texas has proven to be a fearsome force during the opening month of February. The Longhorns hold a stellar 250-88-2 overall record during the month, having won approximately 74% of their games. UT is currently 3-2 this season during the month and went 14-2 in February during last season’s 2016 campaign, tying for the fifth-best monthly winning percentage at .875. A list of the program’s top February records are below: Year February Record Year February Record 2003 17-1 (.944) 2011 14-2 (.875) 2006 17-1 (.944) 2005 10-2 (.833) 2013 16-1 (.941) 2007 12-3 (.800) 2012 14-1 (.933) 1997 9-3 (.750) 2016 14-2 (.875) 2009 13-4 (.765) 2010 14-2 (.875) WE DON’T MIND EXTRA SOFTBALL Apparently Texas doesn’t mind having to work a little overtime on the diamond as the Longhorns are 72-41-1 alltime in extra innings and have won nine of their last 13 such match-ups dating back to 2013. The Longhorns were a stellar 4-1 when forced into extra frames in 2016 with eight-inning wins over North Carolina, Arkansas, UTSA and Iowa and an eight-inning loss to No. 18 Arizona. LOADS OF PRODUCTION RETURNING Texas is returning five everyday positional starters and 13 letter winners for the 2017 campaign that combined to total 60% of the runs, 64% of the hits, 57% of the doubles, 55% of the HR’s and 65% of the RBIs from last season’s 38-win squad. UT will also be bringing back all three starting pitchers from last year and has returned sophomore right-hander Erica Wright, who was forced to redshirt during the 2016 campaign because of an injury. AND THE BIG 12 PRESEASON SURVEY...SAYS! Texas was chosen to finish second (with one first-place vote) in the annual Big 12 Conference preseason poll as voted by the league’s coaches. UT has now been picked to finish in the Big 12 Conference’s top three for seven consecutive seasons. The Sooners nabbed the top position for the eighth time in the last nine seasons after reaping six of the seven possible first-place votes (coaches couldn’t vote for their own team) and 36 total points.

TURN ON THE TUBE TO SEE TEXAS IN 2017 As usual, there will be plenty of chances to see Texas softball play on television in 2017, 26 in all. Longhorn Network, the 24/7 home for UT athletics, will broadcast 25 of 26 Texas home softball games this season. FOX Sports Net (Regional) will show UT’s home match-up vs. Baylor on May 6. Additional TV dates could be added as the season continues. A QUICK LOOK TO THE FUTURE! Back in November of 2016, Texas head softball coach Connie Clark and the University of Texas softball program announced the signing of four student-athletes to National Letters of Intent (NLI) for the 2017-18 academic school year. Signees include (Position/Hometown/High school/Travel Ball Team): Ariana Adams (RHP/ Magnolia, Texas/Magnolia West/Scrap Yard Dawgs), Janae Jefferson (OF/Humble, Texas/Nimitz Senior/Texas Aces Express Gold), Chloe Romero (RHP/Helendale, Calif./Academy of Careers & Exploration/California Cruisers) and Mary Katherine Tedder (IF/Hoover, Ala./Spain Park/Birmingham Thunderbolts). A native of Magnolia, Texas, Adams ventures to the Forty Acres with numerous accolades from the diamond in tow. During her interscholastic pitching career for head coach Sheryl Tamborello at Magnolia West H.S., she has registered a combined 1.20 ERA with 432 strikeouts over 397 innings of work. As a junior in 2016, Adams was selected as first-team Texas Girls Coaches Association (TGCA) Class 5A All-State, second-team Texas Sports Writers Association (TSWA) Class 5A AllState and second-team National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) All-South Central Region after setting a school record with 19 wins to go along with a 0.79 ERA and 153 K’s despite missing two months because of an injury. She is a three-time All-District 19-5A choice, winning All-District Pitcher of the Year accolades in 2016, as well as a three-time all-county selection. Adams also helped lead her travel ball team, the Scrap Yard Dawgs, to first place finishes in the Ronald McDonald, Hall of Fame and Colorado Sparkler events. A three-sport athlete, Jefferson has earned letters in softball, volleyball and basketball at Nimitz Senior H.S. in Houston, Texas. On the diamond, the 5-4 outfielder is a three-time All-District 18-6A selection and earned All-Greater Houston honors as a freshman after hitting .617 overall with 16 doubles, 11 triples, 16 stolen bases and 27 RBIs. During her sophomore campaign in 2014, Jefferson registered the most hits and highest average in her school’s history by batting at a .727 clip with 74 hits, 18 doubles, 13 triples, four HR’s, 21 steals and 37 RBIs. After managing a .687 average as a junior in 2015 (70 hits, 21 doubles, 15 triples, 31 RBIs) and swiping 18 bases, she enters her final campaign just 14 steals from having the most stolen bases in school history. On the basketball hardwood, Jefferson has been named first-team All-District 18-6A (2015) and earned an All-Greater Houston nomination, while on the volleyball court, she is a three-time All-District 18-6A choice (2013, 2014, 2016). For her Texas Aces Express Gold travel ball team and head coach David McCorkle, Jefferson has helped power her squad to first place at the 2014 Triple Crown Tournament in Atlanta, Ga., and fourth place at the 2014 ASA Nationals. During her most recent travel ball season, she batted .488 overall with 42 hits, eight doubles, four triples and 24 RBIs while swiping 22 bases and striking out just three times. A multi-sport athlete that has earned letters in softball, soccer, volleyball and cross country at the Academy of Careers & Exploration in Helendale, Calif., Romero has made quite a name for herself on the diamond. During her three-year career, she has managed a 1.25 combined ERA from the circle with 702 strikeouts over 387 innings of work, while also batting .553 with 135 total hits, 154 runs scored, 46 stolen bases and a .910 slugging percentage. Listed 20th on FloSoftball’s list of the “Hot 100 2017 Softball Recruits,” Romero recently picked up her third career selection to the California Small Schools All-State Team and the All-California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) Southern Section First Team as a junior in 2016 after batting .645 with 49 hits, 51 runs scored, a 1.026 slugging mark and a 0.92 ERA with 237 K’s over 129 innings. During her career, she has helped her high school team to a 2014 CIF Southern Section State title as well as a state finalist berth in 2015. Romero has also picked up a selection as a 2014 MaxPreps Underclass All-American, is a three-time first-team Cross Valley League inclusion and has been named the Cross Valley League Most Valuable Player. She is also the Academy of Careers & Exploration three-mile female record holder and a three-time Cross Valley All-League choice in cross country. With the California Cruisers, Romero has helped her travel ball team to a national finalist berth at the 2016 PGF Premier 18-Under Nationals and to the title at the 2014 PGF Platinum 18-Under event. A product of Hoover, Ala., Tedder also brings along a lofty softball resume to the Forty Acres from a distinguished interscholastic career at Spain Park H.S. Ranked as the No. 25 player in FloSoftball’s “Hot 100 2017 Softball Recruits,” she is coming off a spectacular junior year in 2016 that saw her bat .455 overall with a school record 20 HR’s and 70 RBIs. During that standout 2016 campaign, Tedder also managed 10 doubles, five triples, 66 hits, 48 runs scored, 25 walks and a 1.043 slugging mark while earning a sparkling list of accolades that included: 2016 NFCA Second-Team All-American, NFCA First-Team All-South Region, USA Today Second Team All-American, FloSoftball First-Team All-American, MaxPreps Player of the Year and First-Team Class 7A All-State and All-Super State honors as well as nods as the All-Metro and Over the Mountain Player of the Year and the Alabama Sports Writers Association (ASWA) Alabama 7A Player of the Year. She was also a finalist for Gatorade Player of the Year honors and was recently honored as Spain Park’s Wendy’s Heisman winner. As a sophomore, Tedder was tabbed to the ASWA Second Team, to the NFCA All-Southeast Region squad and earned her second career inclusions to the Birmingham News All-Metro and All-Shelby County squads. Most recently, for her travel ball team the Birmingham Thunderbolts, she contributed a .478 batting mark with six HR’s and 26 RBIs. Off the diamond, Tedder has been a qualifier for state in cross country and a member of the state all-tournament team in bowling.
