So proud of Ralph and everything he has given to the sport of softball! As a retired Air Force officer and Vietnam veteran, representing our country in the Olympics meant so much to him 🇺🇸

Major news in the East Tennessee coaching world. Sarah Fekete Bailey has retired as the head coach of Alcoa softball. Fekete Bailey is one of two players in Tennessee history with their number retired. Her daughter Halle will be a freshman for the Lady Vols next season. Anna Alloway will take over as head coach.

I’m already there! Lis is on fire 🔥

Maybe getting back home to Durham is what the Carolina Blaze need. Five games are left and all are at Smith Family Stadium. The Blaze average just over 5 runs a game at home (5.25) but just under 3 on the road (2.83). 📸: AUSL

A year ago, Jackie Lis took a risk and transferred to Texas Tech from Southern Illinois, hoping for a chance to reach this stage. “I wanted to be able to have a chance to put myself out there to make it to the pros, but I didn’t know this is where I was gonna end up and if it was actually a thing. I took the risk and I’m glad I did.” @AUSL_Volts | @JackieLis00
