3 2018 WICHITA STATE SOFTBALL GAME NOTES #13 SCOUTING HOUSTON The Cougars split a doubleheader in Lamar on Wednesday night, both games went to extra innings. This week Houston have the American Athletic Conference Player of the Week in sophomore second base Arielle James; last week the Shockers earned the honor through Mackenzie Wright. The Cougars pitching ace is Savannah Heebner who sports a 0.93 ERA, the second pitcher the Shockers have faced this week whose ERA is under 1.00, and is 17th in the NCAA. Houston were tabbed for second place in The American preseason poll but have fallen in both their last two conference series to UCF and USF. Both times they picked up one win but fell twice. Notable victories for the Cougars include Texas, who the Shockers also beat, a victory over #15/18 Ole Miss in February and a 1-0 loss to #3/3 Oregon the same weekend. SERIES HISTORY The Cougars and Shockers have only met twice with the last meeting coming in 2017 at the Houston Invitational. Overall the Shockers lead the series 2-0 with both games in Houston; this will be the first conference meeting between the two. LAST MEETING WITH THE COUGARS The Shockers played Houston at the Cougars Invitational in February 2017, coming away with a 5-2 victory behind RBI singles from Mackenzie Wright, Ryleigh Buck and Madison Perrigan. COULDN T HAVE GOT CLOSER The Wichita State softball team nearly earned the biggest win in program history on Wednesday night in Norman, Okla. The Shockers hit two three-run home runs from Laurie Derrico and Caitlin Bingham in the third inning over #2/2 Oklahoma to stun the Sooners and potentially could have run-ruled the reigning College World Series Champions after stranding two runners at third and second in the fifth. But a Sooner rally in the bottom of the sixth saw them score seven runs through four hits and six walks to come away with the rally victory and deny the Shockers a huge win. THAT NUMBER 10 Mackenzie Wright became the first athlete in Shocker softball history to earn American Athletic Conference Player of the Week honors. Her 7-for-10 weekend at UConn saw her bat in her 100th runner, get her 200th career hit, see her 600th appearance at the plate and hit her first home run of the season. Wright is also on a 11 game hit streak and a team leading 18 game reached base streak. She is the seventh conference honoree this season for Wichita State; the other five were named to the weekly honor roll. Those include Laurie Derrico (twice), Paige Luellen, Bailey Lange, Ryleigh Buck and Bailee Nickerson.

It then only took three games to hit back-to-back home runs for the first time in her career with two in two games vs. Tulsa on April 8th. TOUGH SCHEDULE, BIG WINS After defeating three teams recieving votes in 2018, the Shockers finally took down an opponent inside the top-25 in a 5-3 victory over #23/24 Oklahoma State; the first victory over a ranked team since a 2-1 victory over #23 Nebraska in A solo home run each for Paige Luellen and Asea Webber, helped by Madison Perrigan s two RBI s, saw the Shockers come out on top with Bailey Lange and Bailey Klitzke pitching key innings in the win. STREAKS ON STREAKS Mackenzie Wright owns the longest active reached base streak at 18. Wright also owns the hot bat with an 11 game hitting streak; the second longest of her career.

The senior struck three home runs that included a grand slam to lift the Shockers out a six-run hole and a threerun walk-off home run to go 4-0 over the weekend. After taking control of the record book, Luellen is streaking clear and on course to make history as the first Shocker to reach 150 career RBI; she is also second on the team in slugging percentage.

The last time the Shockers lost on a late Friday evening before that was the 2016 NCAA Regional game against #3 Oklahoma in Norman. THOSE TOP-25 TEAMS The Shockers have dropped five game this season to teams not receiving votes or ranked within the top-25 nationally.

To open conference play the Shockers fell twice to Memphis by one and three runs. Every other loss in 2018 has come to a team in the national poll or receiving votes. STACKED SCHEDULE The 2018 Shockers have the toughest schedule in the history of the program by facing off against 11 teams that reached the 2017 NCAA Tournament; including two teams that reached the College World Series in Washington (play twice at the Sam Houston State Tournament) and defending National Champion Oklahoma (the Shockers travel to Norman in April). YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR Since 2014, every Shocker softball squad has entered the batting record books with the 14, 15, 16 and 17 teams all holding top-six positions in multiple categories including highest batting average, highest slugging percentage, highest on base percentage, most runs scored, most hits, most doubles, most home runs and most RBI s.
