April 23, 2021 - No. 23 蹤獲扦 is on a high, one that seems to equal or surpass that 2018 NCAA regional at Arkansas when it advanced to the championship against the host Razorbacks. The Shockers (32-6-1) are ranked in the four major softball polls for the first time, including their first appearance in the National Fastpitch Coaches Association poll at No. 25 last week and now at No. 23. Theyre pretty salty, said Janice Bowers, a season-ticket holder for the past three years and a former pitcher at Emporia State. Theyve got good teamwork and they love to play. I can relate to that.
