November 6, 20196 yr Does anyone have a contact for anyone with the softball team? My cousin's 11 year old daughter collapsed and passed away on the field during a softball tournament this past weekend in Denison. Her life was softball and she looked up to the Horns a lot. I wanted to hopefully get a message to someone with the program to see if there is a possibility of getting an autographed jersey for her Mom. TIA if anyone has any info.

November 7, 20196 yr Author I like that team motto. will face 5 WCWS participants, including 3 OOC - Alabama, Wash and UCLA Plus 2 more SR qualifiers (Tenn and Ole Miss) That ULL-ULL-UCLA-UW stretch. Rough.
November 8, 20196 yr Unfortunate that weather will not be optimum (53 degrees at gametime), should be a great matchup. Playing a comparable schedule including a win over Miss St, Texas St is 6-1 this Fall. AUSTIN, Texas – The Texas softball team will wrap-up its 2019 fall schedule at Red & Charline McCombs Field on Friday at 6 p.m. CT with a contest against I-35 rival Texas State. Admission to the game will be FREE for all fans who wish to attend (no tickets required) with parking available in Lot 115 directly behind McCombs Field. All other lots on the east side of campus will require a proper PTS parking permit. As a heads-up, no TV or radio coverage of Friday's match-up will be available, but live Twitter updates will be provided through the team's official Twitter account (@TexasSoftball). https://texassports.com/news/2019/11/7/softball-to-conclude-fall-season-on-friday-versus-texas-state.aspx

December 18, 20196 yr Best of luck to Janna. Very intelligent young lady who was a great teammate, respected, liked by all. May be eligible for an academic scholarship. Texas infielder Janna Roberts has hung up her cleats, a team spokesperson confirmed on Wednesday. Roberts has decided to focus on her academics instead of athletics. A sophomore, Roberts is studying aerospace engineering at Texas. A standout student off the diamond, Roberts earned a 2018 TGCA Academic All-State Team 6A nod and graduated Summa Cum Laude with membership in the National Honor Society and the NASA High School Aerospace Scholars Program. Texas added six names to its roster this offseason, but three seniors graduated and five players also left the softball program. Roberts and fellow infielder Malory Schattle decided to just become students at Texas. Meanwhile, pitcher Chloe Romero (Cal), first baseman Elicia Espinosa (Utah) and utility player Jaden Hoelker (UT-Arlington) all transferred. https://www.hookem.com/2019/12/18/future-aerospace-engineering-calling-janna-roberts-steps-away-uts-softball-team/

January 10, 20205 yr No love lost ! Oklahoma coach Patty Gasso gave her first-place vote to Oklahoma State, but the Longhorns gathered 29 overall points to Oklahoma State’s 27. https://www.hookem.com/2020/01/09/texas-picked-to-finish-second-in-the-big-12-during-the-2020-softball-season/
January 15, 20205 yr Announced this week that Clarissa Davis and Huston Street will have their numbers retired in ceremonies this year - well deserved ! Still no honor for Cat - would have been the perfect time. Not familiar with the parameters for selection but from past articles parameters are not that transparent. Each case is decided individually. Jamie Ehteridge was the first female athlete to have her jersey retired in 2019. I know fans that have campaigned to the Administration for Cat's number to be retired. She has been honored that her number (8) has not been issued since her graduation.
January 15, 20205 yr Author Kamie And I bet Cat is next. Kamie 83-86 Clarissa 86-89 Street 01-04 Cat 02-03; 05-06 Might just be moving down the list chronologically
January 19, 20205 yr https://twitter.com/TexasSoftball?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^author https://texassports.com/sports/softball/schedule Twitter has several photos of preseason practice which began 13 Jan. Game times posted on schedule. Strong ooc schedule, just disappointed the home tournaments do not include an overall stronger field. Some good teams like Colo St/NDSU/Liberty, but always enjoy LSU and Minn coming to town. We do host ULL (maybe a top 10 team) on 25 Feb - should be a good one.
January 21, 20205 yr Author Texas is ranked #7 in Flo Softball’s preseason 25 We play: @ 1 UCLA @ 2 OU x3 3 Washington (neutral) @ 4 Bama x2 8 ULL x 2 9 OSU x3 12 Tenn (neutral) 18 Ole Miss (neutral) Yes, that’s 7 games against preseason top 5 teams, 12 against preseason top 10 and 14 against preseason top 18 teams. That’s salty.

Think the criteria remains winning a NPOY award. Kamie won it in 86, Clarissa won it in 89, Edwina won it in 00, Street won it in 03, Cat won it in 03, 05-06. We skipped over Edwina but might be waiting until we get Clarissa’s done in March

January 21, 20205 yr Author I get that. I don’t make the rules! It’s been the same standard for the men as well.
January 22, 20205 yr A buddy and I are thinking about driving down from Wichita Falls for the Louisiana Lafayette doubleheader. My question is do yall think this game will pull a big crowd and we should go ahead and buy tickets or will we be able to walk up and buy tickets?

Could be 2 top 10 teams and the Cajuns travel well every time we play them. And they will share their food behind the LCF wall.
January 22, 20205 yr Thanks for the answer and I meant to ask if there was much tailgating that went on before the game. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk
January 22, 20205 yr AUSTIN, Texas – Legendary Longhorns pitcher Cat Osterman will have her No. 8 jersey officially retired on March 25 as part of ceremonies surrounding Texas' mid-week home contest against UT Arlington at Red & Charline McCombs Field.

January 23, 20205 yr About fucking time. What a terrible way to handle the best athlete perspectively in their sport ever. More dominant than Vince or Clemens or Bobby or (slight reach) jordan in her sport.
January 23, 20205 yr Excited for this season to begin and to see what a full off season in Coach White’s program does for these ladies. My daughter’s playing time is over now, so I will be focusing all my softball viewing on the Horns.

I can't find it now, but I think Del Conte tweeted once that the standard that's always been employed at the University of Texas was either NPOY or unanimous All American. That was in response to someone asking about a football player.
January 23, 20205 yr Author Hm we’ve had 22 unanimous All Americans in football alone. Only 6 retired numbers who happen to line up with NPOY or Heisman awards.
January 23, 20205 yr 21 minutes ago, Js1 said: Hm we’ve had 22 unanimous All Americans in football alone. Only 6 retired numbers who happen to line up with NPOY or Heisman awards. Then maybe it was "and" as opposed to "or"? Unanimous All American and NPOY?
January 23, 20205 yr Author The previous rule was a NPOY award triggered it. They amended the rules in 08 to allow for athletes who played before those awards existed (like baseball and football)

My daughter’s playing time is over now, so I will be focusing all my softball viewing on the Horns.Baseball was my gateway drug into softball. I enjoy following the ladies more because our baseball team sucks. I’m excited to see what we do this year.
