TEXAS TECH
• Texas Tech opens its home slate Friday afternoon, hosting the Texas Tech Invitational at Rocky Johnson Field. The Red Raiders will face Utah Valley and UT Martin in doubleheaders on both Friday and Saturday before closing the tournament Sunday afternoon with a 12:30 p.m. first pitch against UT Arlington. • The Red Raiders head into Friday’s meeting with Utah Valley having won four of their last five home openers at Rocky Johnson Field. Texas Tech’s only loss during that span came a year ago when Sam Houston State handed the Red Raiders a 2-0 shutout. The Bearkats were led at the time by current Tech head coach Adrian Gregory, who was an assistant coach at Sam Houston from 2011-14. • This will be the second time in school history where Texas Tech has opened its home schedule against Utah Valley. The Red Raiders previously began their home slate against the Wolverines in 2011, defeating Utah Valley, 8-3, in the opening game of the Texas Tech Invitational. • Texas Tech will be facing UT Arlington for the second time this season as the Red Raiders previously rallied from a five-run deficit to top the Mavericks, 10-6, on Feb. 20 in Arlington. The victory was Tech’s ninth straight in the series. • The Red Raiders are looking to avenge a disappointing performance last weekend at the Cowgirl Classic hosted by McNeese State. Texas Tech dropped all four games in the tournament, marking its longest losing streak of the season. • The Cowgirl Classic ended a 19-game road trip to start the year for the Red Raiders, their most to open a season since 2009 when Texas Tech played each of its first 22 games away from home. • The Red Raiders enter this weekend with a 12-3 record in the Texas Tech Invitational since 2011. Tech finished 3-1 in the event a year ago.

The Red Raiders are 1-1 in such games this season.

The Red Raiders previously rallied from a five-run deficit to top the Mavericks, 10-6, on Feb. 20 earlier this season during the UT Arlington Invitational. The victory improved Tech to 11-4 all-time against UT Arlington as the Mavericks have not defeated the Red Raiders since scoring a 5-3 victory in the first game of an April 22, 2008, doubleheader in Lubbock. The two schools have met a total of seven times since the start of the 2010 season, including twice in 2014 alone. The Red Raiders topped UTA 4-1 in Arlington last season before downing the Mavericks, 8-1, on March 6 later in the year. Tech is 5-1 all-time against UTA when playing in Lubbock.

2015 TEXAS TECH SOFTBALL IT’S SOFTBALL TIME IN LUBBOCK After waiting a month to see their first glimpse of the Texas Tech softball program under Adrian Gregory, Red Raider fans will have the opportunity this weekend to attend the first softball event of 2015 at Rocky Johnson Field. The Red Raiders opened the 2015 season with 19-straight games away from home, the longest road trip to start a year since 2009 when Tech traveled for the first 22 games. Tech will play a total of 18 games at Rocky Johnson Field this season, including three Big 12 series against the likes of No. 6 Oklahoma, No. 25 Kansas and in-state rival Texas. TEXAS TECH ALL-TIME IN HOME OPENERS The Red Raiders head into this weekend’s Texas Tech Invitational opener against Utah Valley looking to build on their 11-8 all-time record in home openers. Tech has opened its home slate with a victory in four of the last four seasons with the only exception coming in 2014 when Sam Houston State, assisted then by Tech head coach Adrian Gregory, handed the Red Raiders a 1-0 shutout. This will be the second time in school history where Tech has hosted Utah Valley in its home opener as the two schools previously met in 2011 as well. The Red Raiders routed the Wolverines, 8-3, that day in the first game of the Texas Tech Invitational.

Through the first four weekends of the season, the firstyear head coach has succeeded on that goal as the Red Raiders currently lead the Big 12 Conference with 44 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 well on pace to snap the single-season school record for a second-straight year as well as its 44 stolen bases are 11 more than the Red Raiders had totaled through 19 games in 2014. Tech has had 11 different players swipe a bag so far this season, led by Brooke Scott who already has a career-high 11 stolen bases.

Thomey recorded her third triple of the season last Saturday against McNeese State as she gave the Red Raiders a 4-3 lead heading into the seventh. Thomey is the 10th Red Raider in school history to record at least three triples in a season. She is just one shy of the Tech single-season record set by the likes of Leah Legler (2008), Denise Jackson (1997-98) and Kim Martinez (1997).

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.

RED RAIDERS FINDING WAYS TO COME FROM BEHIND Texas Tech recorded its third come-from-behind victory of the season last on Feb. 20 when the Red Raiders rallied from an early five-run deficit to top UT Arlington, 10-6. It was the third comeback already this year for the Red Raiders, who trailed heading to the seventh inning in the season opener against New Mexico State and then fell behind again later that evening against Montana. 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.

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 a Red Raider who has played in each of the first 15 games of a season. Bettiol, who is currently hitting .441 for the season, leads all Red Raiders with seven multiple-hit games already this year, three of which that came at the UT Arlington Invitational. The College Station, Texas native enters this weekend second in the Big 12 Conference with 26 base hits. She also ranks among the conference leaders in runs scored, walks and on-base percentage.

Ashley Hamada (2011) .407 (11-for-27) * played in only 14 of the first 15 games of the season. WARNECKE PROVIDES POWER IN MIDDLE OF THE LINEUP Brittany Warnecke has pretty much solidified herself in the middle of the Texas Tech lineup through the first four weeks of the season as the sophomore has helped lead the Red Raiders with three home runs and 14 RBI through the first 19 games of the season. Warnecke connected on two home runs and seven RBI alone during the CenturyLink Classic as she went deep in both games against UTSA. In addition to her power numbers, Warnecke, who recorded just one home run and three RBI as a freshman in 2014, is hitting .288 for the season which currently ranks fourth on the team. THOMEY FINDING THE GAPS EARLY IN THE YEAR Through the first four weeks of the season, there are not many gaps in the outfield that Devon Thomey has not found thus far. Thomey, a sophomore transfer from New Mexico State, leads the Red Raiders with a .681 slugging percentage after recording nine extra-base hits through the first 19 games. Thomey has powered three home runs already this season to go along with a three doubles and three triples while also stealing eight bases as Tech’s normal designated player. Her .681 slugging percentage currently ranks seventh in the Big 12 Conference as she is also among the league leaders in triples, RBI, stolen bases, and total bases. MAISEL RECORDS FIRST CAREER WIN OVER UMKC Texas Tech sophomore Mattison Maisel recorded her first career victory on Feb. 21 in a 9-6 victory over UMKC. Maisel, who is in her first year as part of the main pitching rotation, tossed a career-high 3.1 innings of relief against UMKC where she allowed just one run off four hits. Her 4.20 earned-run average (ERA) is currently the second-lowest on the team. 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 Conference. 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. TEXAS TECH CAREER LEADERS IN VICTORIES Rank Name Total Wins 1. Amanda Renfro (1998-01) 93 2. Cara Custer (2012-present) 54 3. Ashly Jacobs (2007-10) 51 4. Brittany Talley (2011-14) 44 5.

Maisel, who entered this season having only tossed two-thirds of an inning, saw action in three of five games while making her first career start in the tournament finale last Saturday against No. 18 Nebraska. Maisel gave the Red Raiders a chance to win against the Huskers as she went a career-high 3.1 innings, allowing four runs

2015 TEXAS TECH SOFTBALL off six hits before leaving Tech holding onto a slim 4-3 lead. The right-hander closed the weekend with a 5.60 earned-run average in five full innings of work. Nebraska was the only team to score off Maisel as the right-hander recorded shutout appearances against both Montana and UTSA. GREGORY BECOMES FOURTH RED RAIDER HEAD COACH TO WIN DEBUT Adrian Gregory became the fourth head coach in school history to record a victory in their debut leading the Red Raiders last weekend when Texas Tech overcame a seventh inning deficit to top New Mexico State, 5-3. 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.

Gregory, a longtime Texas native, arrives at Tech following four seasons as an assistant coach at Sam Houston State. One of the top hitters in Texas A&M history during her collegiate playing career, Gregory has also made coaching stops at Utah and the New England Riptide, formerly of the National Pro Fastpitch League (NPFL). GREGORY BECOMES FIRST NEW BIG 12 HEAD COACH SINCE 2010 The Big 12 Conference will have a first-year head coach roaming the third base baseline for the time since 2010 this season with new Red Raider skipper Adrian Gregory. 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. RED RAIDERS IMPROVE TO 11-9 ALL-TIME IN SEASON OPENERS Texas Tech bumped its record in season openers to 11-9 all-time last weekend with its 5-3 victory over New Mexico State. The win marked the sixth time in the past seven years where the Red Raiders have opened the season with a victory. The only loss during that span came in 2014 when Tech fell, 4-3, to Akron. Tech had previously won each of its last five season openers, defeating Central Florida in 2009, Wisconsin in 2010, No. 16 BYU in 2011, San Diego State in 2012 and Central Florida in 2013. The streak of five-consecutive wins in season openers marked the longest in program history. 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. RED RAIDERS FIRST BIG 12 PROGRAM TO OPEN 2015 SEASON Texas Tech was the first Big 12 program to open the 2015 season on Feb. 5 as the Red Raiders began their season with a 3 p.m. CT first pitch against New Mexico State. Oklahoma was the only other conference school to play that day as the Sooners faced DePaul in a 7:30 p.m. CT start in Hawaii. Tech closed Opening Day against Montana later that evening. 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 2 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. SCHWIRTLICH JOINS RED RAIDER ROSTER AT SEMESTER Texas Tech head coach Adrian Gregory announced prior to the season that former All-Southland Conference selection Kirsten Schwirtlich has joined the Red Raider softball program for the start of preseason practices. Schwirtlich, the 2013 Southland Conference Freshman of the Year, will be forced to sit out the 2015 season due to NCAA transfer rules after arriving at Tech following a two-year career at Houston Baptist. The Corpus Christi, Texas native earned All-Southland Conference second team honors as a freshman at Houston Baptist in 2013 and then first team accolades the following year. She was also a third-team NFCA All-Region selection as a sophomore as well. Her transfer will give Gregory additional depth in the infield both defensively and at the plate. Schwirtlich hit .366 as a freshman in 2013, connecting on a team-leading 10 home runs while driving in 47 runs. She committed only one defensive error that season in over 80 chances as well. Schwirtlich followed up by compiling an impressive .411 average a year ago that once again featured impressive power numbers with nine home runs, 11 doubles, three triples and 38 RBI. She wrapped the season as the Southland Conference leader in batting average and among the league leaders in almost every other offensive category.

UT Arlington (9-3) plated five runs over the first two innings before Tech responded with a Susan Welborn leadoff home run in the third and then its seven runs two innings later. Tech had not previously scored seven or more runs in an inning since plating eight against Iowa State on March 26 last year. The five-run deficit, meanwhile, was the largest for the Red Raiders in a victory since Tech defeated No. 19 Texas A&M, 8-6, on April 18, 2012. Tech trailed by a similar 5-0 deficit in that game as well. Tech loaded the bases with three singles to start the fifth, setting up Jordan Bettiol and Lea Hopson for RBI singles to cut the UTA lead to just two runs with just one out in the inning. Hopson’s single could have created more damage at the time as she drove a shot to the wall in centerfield that was hung up by a hard-blowing wind from the south.

ARLINGTON, Texas - Texas Tech erased an early five-run deficit with seven runs in the fifth inning Friday evening as the Red Raiders rallied to top UT Arlington, 10-6, at Allan Saxe Field. ‘ The Red Raiders (7-6) set season highs for runs (10) and hits (14) in their second victory of the day as Tech previously pulled off a 9-1 run-rule victory over DePaul. Tech is now 6-0 this season on the first day of tournament play.

Bettiol finished with a career-high four hits to lead the Red Raiders atop the lineup as she went 4-for-5 for her second multiple-game of the day and her team-leading sixth of the season. She combined to go 6-for-8 over two games Friday with three RBI. Kierra Miles tied the game soon after with a two-run single to right field that was followed by another two-run shot, this time via an Ashley Fultz double. Tech added its final run of the frame off a UTA fielding error. The Red Raiders plated a pair of insurance runs over the final two frames via a UTA wild pitch in the sixth and then a leadoff home run from Brittany Lee to start the seventh. The home run was the first of the season for Lee and the sixth of her career. Lee was one of four Red Raiders with at least two hits as she finished 2-for-3 off the bench. Welborn also ended the night 2-for-4 while Hopson was 2-for-5 overall. Tech’s comeback allowed Cara Custer (4-4) to pick up her second victory of the day as the right-hander tossed 6.1 innings in relief of Chandler Moore. Custer, who tossed five full innings earlier against DePaul, gave up three runs off six hits while striking five, three of which that came in a key bottom of the fifth. Sam Montes (2-2) took the loss for the Mavericks after surrendering seven runs off eight hits and three strikeouts in her 4.2 innings. She was relieved by Kayla Donaldson, who handed Tech three runs in her 1.1 innings before Brittany May recorded the final three outs. UTA plated three runs in the first, matching the most for a Tech opponent this year. Rebecca Stokes scored two of those runs with a two-out, two-run single up the middle right after Custer entered the game. Meagan Michele knocked in UTA’s other two RBI with a run-scoring single in the second and then a solo home run to lead off the seventh inning, her fourth already this season.
