April 22, 20214 yr Texas wins 5-4 and whacks 3 more HR. 64 team HR now. We are barely on pace to surpass the school record now 64 in 38 games. We have 9 games left + Big 12 tournament (3 games). Plus at least 3 NCAA games, minimum. Edited April 22, 20214 yr by Js1
April 24, 20214 yr Rhodes hit #15. 3 from the Texas single season record. 7-1 Texas b4 Edited April 24, 20214 yr by Js1
April 24, 20214 yr WTG ladies! Time to go get cleaned up and watch the vball team win the SHIP!Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
April 25, 20214 yr All tied up. Walk by Whitaker and then Day singles. PR Williams goes first to third and scored on a throwing error to third. 3-3 Then KU drops an infield pop up. Runners on 2nd and 3rd, no out Edited April 25, 20214 yr by Js1
April 25, 20214 yr NCAA announcing the 16 pre-determined host sites tomorrow for regionals and the 8 for supers. I would bet Austin is at least a regional site.
April 25, 20214 yr Horns were up 8-3.....now tied 8-8. 7-8 walks....had to go back to O’Leary. Now...going to B 5th, all tied up. Didn’t show up today.

Ok St has 2 road games this week, Tue @Wichita State and Wed @Tulsa. Pivotal series for 2d place in conf and RPI. Edited April 26, 20214 yr by torre

Pivotal series for 2d place in conf and RPI. While I would normally agree, I think Mike scheduled no mid-week games to end the season to keep the team fresh for postseason play. Unless we are adding a really good opponent to make up for those games we lost, I don't feel the need to add in a sub-100 RPI team late in the season just for "tune-ups" We have 6 games left - 3 vs. Ok State and then 3 vs. Baylor. Then Big 12 tournament. We were 16th in the last RPI - 3 vs OSU (#9 RPI) and 3 vs Baylor (#49).

April 27, 20214 yr This is a huge series this weekend. Oklahoma State is #8 in RPI and Texas #11 in RPI. Winner of this series is probably getting a national seed.

All the way up to #11 is awesome! We jumped 7 spots from last week. Out of the current top 8, LSU is only team I think doesn't get a top 8 seed (28-15). UCLA, Alabama, Florida, Florida St, Arkansas, OU, OSU should. Washington may sneak in there instead of LSU. If Texas wins the OSU series and sweeps Baylor, we could be the 8th spot. Gotta see how these other games play out. Baylor is also up to 43, so that's 6 top 50 games Texas has left. And Baylor's will go up just by playing OU tonight (DH on ESPNU).

Baylor had a 1-0 lead thru 3 and then Mendes with a grand slam. Sounds familiar. The OU series was terrible for Texas Softball. Sry, I just can't get over it. Just be competitive. Since the OU/Baylor series was earlier postponed due to Covid (Baylor), seems they will only play the DH. https://soonersports.com/sports/softball/schedule/2021
April 28, 20214 yr Interesting but not all that surprising. She's 5th in innings pitched with 3 of those pitchers likely returning next season. I'm more surprised Adams didn't transfer before the season started. Edited April 28, 20214 yr by texasstrong12
April 28, 20214 yr I trust Adams on the mound a lot more than White, but Mike almost always taps White to come in to pitch when given the choice. I 100% understand her decision Edited April 28, 20214 yr by perfectchaos007

I 100% understand her decision White is a true FR and a 5 star talent. You have to live with the growing pains that come with giving a young player reps. Also, if you don't play the talented players they will transfer. See Grace Green last season. White is going to be a much better pitcher than Adams in a year or two.

Respected her for not transferring and being a team player. Per reports, highly recruited and successful in travel ball. Type of pitcher that could come in and give the opponent a different look for a few batters or innings. Always good to have a 5th pitcher for the tournament. Though now improved, Covid made for a more stressful season with testing requirements, lack of social interaction with teammates, etc.
April 29, 20214 yr Do we have any really great recruit pitchers/hitters coming in next year that we are really excited about.......difference makers?
