• Texas Tech returns to Rocky Johnson Field this weekend as the Red Raiders open Big 12 Conference play by hosting No. 6 Oklahoma in a three-game series that begins at 6 p.m. Friday evening. The series continues with a 4 p.m. first pitch Saturday afternoon and then a 12 p.m. start on Sunday. • Texas Tech is 7-12 all-time in Big 12 openers as the Red Raiders will be looking to start conference play with a win for the second time in the past three years. • This will be the third time in school history where the Red Raiders have opened Big 12 play against Oklahoma as the Sooners swept a pair of two-game series in both 2007 and 2009. Oklahoma was ranked in the top 10 nationally in both of those seasons as well. • The Red Raiders are opening their Big 12 slate at home for the sixth time in the past eight years. Texas Tech also opened conference play at home in 2014, dropping all three games in the series to No. 12 Baylor. • No. 6 Oklahoma is the highest-ranked team to face the Red Raiders since the then top-ranked Sooners traveled to Lubbock on April 12-14, 2013, for a three-game series. • Texas Tech will be looking for its first win over a ranked opponent since the Red Raiders closed the 2013 season with a 6-4 victory over No. 15 Baylor on May 4. Tech is 0-9 against top-25 foes since that game. • This will be the eighth time in the past 10 years where the Red Raiders have opened Big 12 play against a ranked opponent. Texas Tech is 0-8 during that span against top-25 foes but boasts a 2-0 against non-ranked opponents. • Texas Tech heads into this weekend’s series 44-223 alltime against ranked opponents, including a 18-103 mark versus foes ranked inside the top 10. The Red Raiders are 17-69 all-time against ranked opponents when playing in Lubbock. • The Red Raiders are coming off a trip to the west coast where Texas Tech defeated Seattle University, 8-4, on March 18 before dropping a doubleheader to No. 18 Washington the following day. • The Washington doubleheader opened an 11-game stretch against ranked opponents as the Red Raiders are set to face No. 6 Oklahoma, No. 13 Baylor and No. 22 Kansas over their next nine games. It is the longest streak of games against top-25 foes since Texas Tech played 13-consecutive games against ranked opponents in 2012.

2015 TEXAS TECH SOFTBALL ON DECK The Red Raiders continue Big 12 Conference play next weekend on the road, traveling to No. 13 Baylor for a three-game series that runs April 2-4 at Getterman Stadium in Waco. TEXAS TECH ALL-TIME IN BIG 12 OPENERS The Red Raiders are opening Big 12 Conference play at home for the sixth time in the past eight years this weekend when Texas Tech hosts No. 6 Oklahoma. Tech enters this weekend’s series 7-12 all-time in Big 12 openers after starting conference play with a loss in eight of the past 10 seasons. The Red Raiders are also 10-29 all-time in Big 12 opening series. This will be the third time in program history where Oklahoma and Tech have opened league action against each other as the two schools previously met in both the 2007 and 2009 seasons. The Sooners swept both of those two-game series that were played in Lubbock. The Oklahoma series will mark the eighth time in the last 10 years where the Red Raiders have opened conference play against a ranked opponent.

March 28, 2014 #12 Baylor L, 1-14 (6) Lubbock, Texas March 27, 2015 #6 Oklahoma - Lubbock, Texas NEWS AND NOTES FROM AROUND THE DIAMOND • Adrian Gregory is the fourth Texas Tech head coach in program history to open Big 12 play against a ranked opponent, joining the likes of Cara Marchetti (2000 vs. No. 18 Oklahoma State), Teresa Wilson (2005 vs. No. 7 Baylor) and Amy Suiter (2009 vs. No. 9 Oklahoma). Marchetti is the only previous head coach to win their Big 12 opener against a ranked opponent as Texas Tech defeated No. 18 Oklahoma State, 5-0, in 2000. • No. 6 Oklahoma is the highest-ranked opponent to face a Texas Tech head coach who is making their debut in Big 12 play. • The Red Raiders will face plenty of left-handed pitching this weekend from Oklahoma freshman southpaw Paige Parker, who is 11-3 this year with a 1.60 earned-run average. Texas Tech is 5-1 so far this year against left-handed starters. • Texas Tech has won 70 percent of its games at Rocky Johnson Field since the start of the 2010 season as the Red Raiders are 97-41 during that span, including a 6-3 mark already this year. • Texas Tech is hitting .445 over nine games at home this season while connecting on 13 home runs and driving in 77 runs. • Kierra Miles has been among Texas Tech’s leaders at the plate the past few weeks as she has posted four multiple-hit performances in the past five games and six in the last eight contests as well. • Cara Custer, meanwhile, heads into the Oklahoma series having tossed a complete game in each of her last five starts. RED RAIDERS IN MIDST OF MOST DIFFICULT STRETCH OF THE SEASON The Washington doubleheader on March 19 opened possibly the most challenging part of the schedule for Texas Tech this season as the 18th-ranked Huskies were the first of four-straight top-25 opponents to face the Red Raiders. Following its doubleheader with Washington, Tech is set to open Big 12 play against No. 6 Oklahoma and then continue league action with back-to-back weekend series against No. 13 Baylor and No. 22 Kansas. The 11-game stretch against ranked opponents is the longest since the Red Raiders played 13-consecutive games against top-25 foes in 2012.

HOPSON BELTS THREE HOME RUNS IN MCHANEY CLASSIC TO JOIN TEXAS TECH ALL-TIME LEADERS Lea Hopson connected on three home runs during the Jeannine McHaney Memorial Classic en route to moving the senior into the top 10 all-time in Texas Tech history. Hopson, who has already jumped into the top 10 for career stolen bases this year as well, has nine home runs this season, giving her 16 for her career which is tied for 10th in program history along with Cydney Allen (2011-12). She is just one long ball shy of tying Jennifer Bowers (2005-08) for ninth all-time and two from matching Emily Bledsoe’s (2009-12) total in eighth place. Hopson also needs two more home runs as well to join the top 10 in single-season history. TEXAS TECH CAREER LEADERS IN HOME RUNS Rank Name Total SB 1. Mikey Kenney (2010-13) 45 2.

Bettiol, who is sixth currently in the conference with a .425 batting average, leads Tech with 13 multiple-hit games already this year. If Bettiol were to continue hitting at the same pace through the final 18 games, she would be only the third Red Raider in program history to compile a .400 or better batting average. In addition to leading the conference in hits, Bettiol also ranks among the league leaders in runs scored (31), stolen bases (12), and on-base percentage (.500).

THOMEY FINDING THE GAPS EARLY IN THE YEAR Through the first half of the season, Devon Thomey has discovered there aren’t many gaps in an outfield she cannot find. Thomey, a sophomore transfer from New Mexico State, leads the Red Raiders with a .682 slugging percentage after recording 14 extra-base hits through the first 33 games. Thomey has powered four home runs already this season to go along with a seven doubles and three triples while also stealing 12 bases as Tech’s normal designated player. Her .682 slugging percentage currently ranks 10th in the Big 12 as she is also among the league leaders in triples (3), RBI (30), stolen bases (12), and total bases (60). Her slugging percentage currently ranks fifth all-time in the Texas Tech single-season record book. TEXAS TECH OFF TO THE RACES - AGAIN Since taking over the Texas Tech softball program last summer, Adrian Gregory has insisted she wants the Red Raiders to be among the most aggressive teams in the country on the base paths. Through the first half of the season, the first-year head coach has succeeded on that goal as the Red Raiders are currently second in the Big 12 Conference with 70 stolen bases, eight of which that came Feb. 28 against Memphis, tying the Tech single-game record that was previously set on March 17, 2001, against Texas A&M-Corpus Christi. Tech is on pace to snap the single-season school record for a second-straight year as well as its 70 stolen bases are four more than the Red Raiders had totaled through 33 games in 2014. Tech has had 12 different players swipe a bag so far this season, led by Brooke Scott who already has a career-high 15 stolen bases.

Hopson has totaled 28 stolen bases in almost two seasons, placing her in a tie for eighth all-time with Heather Parker (2004-07). Hopson has six stolen bases already this year after totaling 21 a year ago which ranked tied for sixth all-time in Texas Tech single-season history.

Eva Harshman (1999-02) 27 RED RAIDERS FINDING WAYS TO COME FROM BEHIND Texas Tech has proved no lead is safe this year as the Red Raiders have rallied from deficits to win six times already this year, including three times during the Texas Tech Invitational alone. Tech trailed by as many as five runs on March 7 in its 13-9 come-from-behind victory over UT Martin. It marked the second time this season where the Red Raiders have overcome a five-run deficit to win as Tech previously trailed UT Arlington by a similar margin on Feb. 20 before pulling off a 10-6 victory. The five-run comeback against UT Arlington marked the largest deficit Tech has overcome in a victory since the Red Raiders rallied from a similar five-run deficit to defeat No. 19 Texas A&M on April 18, 2012. THOMEY ALREADY APPROACHING SINGLE-SEASON RECORD FOR TRIPLES Devon Thomey enters Big 12 play needing one more triple to tie the Texas Tech single-season record as she has totaled three already this season, all of which that came during the month of February. Thomey is the 10th Red Raider in school history to record at least three triples in a season. One more triple would place her in a tie with Leah Legler (2008), Denise Jackson (1997-98) and Kim Martinez (1997). TEXAS TECH SINGLE-SEASON LEADERS FOR TRIPLES Rank Name Triples 1.

Devon Thomey (2015) 3 Five other players 3 FULTZ, THOMEY BOTH CONNECT ON GRAND SLAMS AGAINST UT ARLINGTON Texas Tech’s ability to hit the long ball was on full display March 8 against UT Arlington as the Red Raiders went deep three times, highlighted by a pair of grand slams by Ashley Fultz and Devon Thomey, the first in each of their careers. Fultz erased an early two-run deficit with her grand slam in the first inning. Thomey, meanwhile, provided the game-winning runs, breaking up a 5-5 tie in the fourth with her grand slam to center field that was part of a nine-run inning for the Red Raiders. It is believed to be the first time in school history where Tech has connected on two grand slams in the same game. MILES RECORDS CAREER-HIGH SIX RBI AGAINST UT MARTIN Kierra Miles recorded her best performance as a Red Raider to date on March 7 in Texas Tech’s 13-9 come-from-behind victory over UT Martin as she finished 4-for-5 against the Skyhawks while driving in a career-high six RBI. Miles, who ended just a home run shy of the cycle, also notched a career high for hits with a two-run triple in the third, a RBI single in the fourth and then a pair of doubles in the sixth and seventh innings. Miles currently ranks among the Big 12 leaders with a team-best 32 RBI this season. BETTIOL NAMED BIG 12 PLAYER OF THE WEEK Texas Tech junior Jordan Bettiol was named the Big 12 Player of the Week on Feb. 24 after she reached in 13 of 16 plate appearances at the UT Arlington Invitational. Bettiol hit a team-leading .769 (10-for-13) over the course of the weekend, helping lead the Red Raiders (9-6) to a 4-0 showing with wins over the likes of DePaul, a preseason top-25 team, as well as host UT Arlington. The Nebraska transfer recorded at least two hits in three of Tech’s four games with the only exception coming in a 12-0 rout of Prairie View A&M. Bettiol finished 1-for-1 overall against the Panthers with a pair of walks and two stolen bases. Bettiol totaled an impressive .813 on-base percentage to go along with an .846 slugging percentage over the four games. She also stole four bases and drove in four runs, two of which that came in a 9-1 run-rule of DePaul in the tournament opener Friday. BETTIOL RECORDS IMPRESSIVE AVERAGE TO START THE SEASON Jordan Bettiol made quite the debut over the first 15 games of the season as the junior transfer from Nebraska totaled a team-leading .500 (24-for-48) batting average in that span. Dating back to the 2007 season, her average was the highest for

2015 TEXAS TECH SOFTBALL a Red Raider who has played in each of the first 15 games of a season. Bettiol, who is currently hitting .425 for the season, leads all Red Raiders with 13 multiple-hit games already this year, three of which that came at the UT Arlington Invitational. The College Station, Texas native enters this weekend ranked second in the Big 12 Conference with 45 base hits. She also ranks among the conference leaders in runs scored, stolen bases and on-base percentage. TEXAS TECH BATTING AVERAGE LEADERS THROUGH 15 GAMES (SINCE 2007) Rank Name Batting Average 1.

RED RAIDERS RECORD 600TH CAREER WIN IN PROGRAM HISTORY OVER MONTANA Texas Tech’s second win of the season - an 8-5 decision over Montana - marked the 600th in program history as the Red Raiders are now 600-652-4 overall. Tech, now in its 24th season of softball, started its program in 1981 before disbanding it following the 1985 season. Softball returned as a sponsored intercollegiate sport in 1996 with the start of the Big 12. RED RAIDERS OPEN 2015 WITH COME-FROM-BEHIND WIN OVER NEW MEXICO STATE In just its first game of the 2015 season, Texas Tech proved that no lead was safe, even after six innings. The Red Raiders, facing a 3-2 deficit in the top of the seventh against New Mexico State, used a three-run inning to pull off a 5-3 victory over the Aggies, the first in the career of head coach Adrian Gregory. Devon Thomey highlighted the come-from-behind victory with a two-run double to the wall in center field that scored both Susan Welborn and Kristi Belshe. Tech previously tied the game on a wild pitch that allowed Brooke Scott to scamper home from third base. It marked only the third time since the start of the 2012 season where the Red Raiders have won despite trailing at the start of the seventh inning. THOMEY TURNS IN MEMORABLE OPENING DAY IN RETURN TO LAS CRUCES Opening Day for Devon Thomey was not just an opportunity for a fresh start with Texas Tech but also a chance to return to New Mexico State where she played her 2014 freshman season. Thomey made the most of her return by going 4-for-7 with six RBI in an Opening Day doubleheader against New Mexico State and Montana. The performance included the game-winning hit against the Aggies as Thomey drilled a double to center field in the seventh inning that scored both Susan Welborn and Kristi Belshe and gave Tech a 5-3 lead it would not relinquish. Thomey followed up by going 3-for-3 with four RBI later that evening against Montana, finishing a double shy of the cycle after a RBI triple in the second and then a two-run homer, the first in her collegiate career in the fourth inning. Her six RBI on the day were one more than her entire total from 2014. CUSTER MOVES TO SECOND ALL-TIME IN WINS WITH WIN OVER NEW MEXICO STATE All it took was seven innings into the 2015 season for Cara Custer to move into sole possession of second place for wins in the Texas Tech career record book. Custer, a native of Tacoma, Washington, tossed seven strong innings in the season opener against New Mexico State where she picked up career win No. 52 to pass Ashly Jacobs (2007-10) for second all-time in program history. In addition to her rise up the career wins chart, Custer is also chasing several other records as well, including saves, appearances, games started, complete games, ERA and strikeouts.

Gregory joins the likes of Bobby Reeves (2001), Amy Suiter (2009) and Shanon Hays (2010) as Texas Tech head coaches to win in their debut. With Gregory’s come-from-behind victory over New Mexico State, Texas Tech head coaches are now 4-3 all-time when making their debut.

The last time the conference had a new head coach making a debut came in 2010 when current Kansas skipper Megan Smith and former Texas Tech head coach Shanon Hays joined the league. The conference has not experienced much turnover in the coaching ranks during its existence as Oklahoma’s Patty Gasso and Texas’ Connie Clark have been with both programs since before the league formed in 1996 while Baylor head coach Glenn Moore is entering his 15th season leading the Lady Bears. TEXAS TECH STARTS ITS SEASON ON THE ROAD The Red Raiders will become accustomed to life on the road throughout the month of February as Texas Tech will play its first 19 games of the season away from home. Following its trip to Las Cruces, N.M., Tech will also travel to tournaments at Texas State, UT Arlington and McNeese State. The Red Raiders open their home slate on March 6 with a doubleheader against Utah Valley and UT Martin to begin the Texas Tech Invitational. The 19-game road trip is the longest Tech has gone to start the year without playing at home since the Red Raiders traveled for the first 22 games of the 2009 season.

BETTIOL, THOMEY TRANSFER TO TEXAS TECH Both Devon Thomey and Jordan Bettiol will join the Red Raider program this season after transferring to Texas Tech this past fall. Thomey and Bettiol were two of the first signees Adrian Gregory secured soon after being named Texas Tech’s head coach last June. Thomey played one season at New Mexico State where she hit .309 with five RBI and 14 runs scored in 2014. Bettiol, meanwhile, sat out the 2014 season after garnering second team All-Big Ten honors in 2013 after hitting .274 for the Huskers, including a team-high .400 clip during conference play alone. Her performance both at the plate and in the outfield helped lead Nebraska to the NCAA Women’s College World Series for the seventh time in program history. MCDONALD, LOCKE JOIN GREGORY AS PART OF INAUGURAL STAFF Soon after her hire last June as the seventh head coach in Texas Tech history, Adrian Gregory first act was to quickly assemble a highly-successful coaching staff around her. She succeeded with the hires of associate head coach Sharonda McDonald and assistant coach Amanda Locke. Two highly successful athletes during their respective playing careers, both McDonald and Locke were hired weeks following Gregory taking the position and immediately hit the ground running on the recruiting trail. McDonald, a former teammate of Gregory at Texas A&M, arrives at Tech after spending the previous two seasons as the volunteer assistant coach at LSU while Locke comes from Northwestern State where she served as pitching coach the past two years. HOPSON, SCOTT ELECTED CO-CAPTAINS FOR 2015 The Red Raiders elected a pair of team captains prior to the seasons in senior Lea Hopson and junior Brooke Scott. In addition to being named a team captain, the duo will likely former the middle part of Texas Tech’s infield with Scott starting at second while Hopson will move to shortstop after spending the entire 2014 season at second. The two could also switch positions from time-to-time throughout the season as well. The two captains were elected in a vote by their teammates. MILES LEADS GROUP OF RETURNERS AT THE PLATE Following one of the best freshman seasons in school history, Kierra Miles will be looked upon once again to boost the middle of the Texas Tech lineup after the sophomore hit .310 in 2014 with seven home runs and 36 RBI. The successful rookie campaign marked just the seventh time in program history where a Red Raider freshman has hit .300 or better in her first season. A native of Mustang, Oklahoma, Miles was one of four Tech players to hit above .300 while she finished second overall for RBI and tied for second in home runs. She will more than likely begin the year in the middle of the Tech lineup. BELSHE MAKES MOVE BEHIND THE PLATE Possibly the biggest change for Texas Tech this season defensively will be seen behind the plate as senior Kristi Belshe added catching responsibilities this past fall. Belshe, who started primarily in left field as a junior, will split duties behind the plate with sophomore Brittany Lee, who similarly will see action at multiple positions across the diamond this season. Belshe arrived at Tech in 2014 after earned NJCAA All-American honors at Lake Land College in Illinois. She is the first Red Raider in program history to hail from the state of Hawaii. HOPSON RETURNS WITH SPEED ON THE BASE PATHS Lea Hopson’s return for her senior season is plus for the Red Raiders in two ways. It gives Texas Tech a leader in the clubhouse as a team captain and also provides head coach Adrian Gregory some additional speed on the base paths. Hopson, who joined the Tech program last season after transferring from the College of Southern Idaho, finished 21-for-24 in stolen base attempts a year ago, ranking sixth overall in the Big 12. Among conference players returning this season, Hopson ranks third overall in the league only behind Shelby Davis (Oklahoma State) and Brittany Gomez (Iowa State). BIG 12 LEADERS AMONG RETURNERS IN STOLEN BASES Rank Name 2014 Stolen Bases 1. Jordan Davis (OSU) 41 2. Brittany Gomez (ISU) 24 3. Lea Hopson (TTU) 21 RED RAIDERS LOOK TO CONTINUE STREAK OF 30-WIN SEASONS Texas Tech boasts one of the top streaks in the Big 12 Conference heading into this season as the Red Raiders will look to continue their run of five straight 30-win seasons under first-year head coach Adrian Gregory. The Red Raiders, who finished 35-19 a year ago, have posted 30 or more wins in each of the past five years, tying with Oklahoma and Texas for the longest streak currently in the conference. BIG 12 PROGRAMS WITH 30-WIN SEASONS SINCE 2010 Rank Team 30-Win Seasons 1. Oklahoma 5 Texas Tech 5 Texas 5 4. Baylor 4 5. Oklahoma State 3 Kansas 3 7. Iowa State 0 GREGORY COMPILES CHALLENGING NON-CONFERENCE SCHEDULE In Adrian Gregory’s mind, “to be the best, you have to play the best.” The first-year head coach is going to put that motto to the test this season as Texas Tech significantly bolstered its non-conference schedule with games scheduled against four opponents in the preseason top-25 rankings. The Red Raiders will face No. 18 Nebraska early in the year on Feb. 7 before turning around two weeks later to face No. 25 DePaul twice on Feb. 20-22. Tech will also host No. 21 Tulsa for a pair of games on March 13-14 before closing non-conference play at No. 11 Washington, a NCAA Women’s College World Series participant a year ago. Including Big 12 games, the Red Raiders will face a total of nine opponents this season who advanced to a NCAA Regional a year ago. RED RAIDERS SELECTED TO FACE TEXAS ON FOX SPORTS NET The April 25 softball game between Texas Tech and Texas at Rocky Johnson Field will air regionally on FOX Sports Net, the Big 12 Conference announced prior to the season. This is believed to be FSN’s first trip to Lubbock for a softball game since the network began covering the sport several years ago. The Red Raiders are no stranger to television coverage, though, with previous appearances on both FSN and ESPN. FSN also announced it will carry the April 18 game between Oklahoma and Baylor in Norman. The rest of the Big 12 television schedule will be announced Tuesday afternoon when ESPN releases its television picks for the entire 2015 season.
