RED RAIDERS TRAVEL TO LAS CRUCES After a 3-2 start to its season last weekend in Las Vegas, Texas Tech returns to the road Friday when the Red Raiders open the Troy Cox Classic hosted by New Mexico State in Las Cruces, N.M. Texas Tech will face Colorado State, UMKC, Penn State and the host Aggies in the three-day event that will be played at the NMSU Softball Complex.

This is the Red Raiders’ first trip to Las Cruces since the 2002 season when Tech went 4-2 on the weekend with a pair of victories over No. 17 Florida State.

Tech also made trips to New Mexico State for tournaments in 1996, 1997, 1999 and 2000 as well. The Red Raiders are 16-15 all-time when traveling to Las Cruces for tournament action.

WEEK 2: TROY COX CLASSIC • GAMES 6-10 INSIDE THE COLORADO STATE SERIES Texas Tech and Colorado State will be meeting for the fifth time in history as the two teams have split the four previous meetings. The Red Raiders took a 17-5 five-inning victory over the Rams in their last meeting on March 17, 2001, where Tech drew a school record 18 walks in the rout. This is the second time Tech and Colorado State have met at the Troy Cox Classic as the Red Raiders took a 7-5 victory on March 2, 1996, in the tournament finale.

INSIDE THE UMKC SERIES The Red Raiders will face UMKC for the first time since 2010 and the sixth time in history Saturday as Tech is 4-1 all-time against the Kangaroos. Tech swept UMKC over three games in 2010 and then also took an 11-2 victory on March 11, 2005. The Kangaroos’ only win in the series came on March 4, 2000, when UMKC edged Tech, 3-2, at the Bash at the Bay tournament held in Corpus Christi, Texas.

INSIDE THE PENN STATE SERIES Texas Tech is 1-2 all-time against Penn State as the two teams have not met since the 2001 season. The Red Raiders downed the Nittany Lions, 2-0, on March 10, 2001, for their only win in the series. Penn State took 2-1 and 5-2 victories during the 1999 and 2000 series. All three meetings between the two schools have been played at a neutral site.

INSIDE THE NEW MEXICO STATE SERIES Texas Tech will be renewing one of its longest series against a non-conference opponent Sunday when New Mexico State hosts the Red Raiders. The two schools have met 30 times since 1996 with the Red Raiders controlling a 20-10 all-time advantage. This will be the first time the two schools have met since the 2011 NCAA Tucson Regional where Tech overcame a first-game loss to defeat the Aggies in an elimination. The Red Raiders are 7-5 against the Aggies when playing in Las Cruces where the two teams have not met since the 2004 season.

HAYS BECOMES ALL-TIME WINNINGEST COACH ON OPENING WEEKEND Shanon Hays became the winningest coach in Texas Tech history on opening weekend when the Red Raiders topped Central Florida, 12-4, for Hays’ 122nd victory. The win helped Hays pass Renee Luers-Gillespie, UCF’s current head coach who also led Tech to a 121-133-1 record in just over four seasons from 1996 to several weeks into the 2000 season. Hays is now 124-53 during his three-plus seasons in the Tech dugout.

JAMES, KENNEY NEARING CAREER RBI RECORD Sandy James and Mikey Kenney have a chance to break the Texas Tech career RBI record this weekend as the two seniors are within 10 RBI of Paula Workman (1997-2000) and Emily Bledsoe’s (2009-12) mark of 114.

James enters this weekend two off the record with 112 RBI that is tied for third all-time with Logan Hall. Kenney, meanwhile, has 106 career RBI which is good for seventh all-time in school history. James and Kenney both opened with four RBI each last weekend with Kenney connecting on a pair of home runs, giving her a school-record 34 for her career.

ELKINS HAS SUCCESSFUL START TO COLLEGIATE CAREER As a collegiate athlete for just over a month, Lexie Elkins probably couldn’t imagine such a successful opening weekend. The 17-year-old freshman went 4-for-8 at the plate with a pair of doubles and two RBI while making three starts behind the plate. She became the first freshman to earn the opening-day start at catcher since Holley Gentsch in 2009. Gentsch went on to Tech’s primary catcher behind the plate during her fouryear career before becoming Tech’s graduate student manager this season.

RED RAIDERS FIND SUCCESS IN THE OPENING INNING If one thing was evident at the Sportco Kick-Off Classic last weekend in Las Vegas, the Red Raiders were ready from the beginning as Texas Tech plated at least one run in the opening inning four times in five games. In three of those games, the Red Raiders opened with significant leads thanks to four first-inning runs. Tech scored in the first inning 24 times a year ago and was 20-4 in those games. The Red Raiders finished 2-2 last weekend when scoring in the opening frame.

RED RAIDERS RECEIVE VOTES IN BOTH PRESEASON POLLS For the third-straight season, Texas Tech will start the season receiving votes in both the USA Today/NFCA and the ESPN/USA Softball preseason polls. The Red Raiders picked up 12 points in both polls to fall just outside of the top 25. One of five Big 12 schools appearing in either poll, Tech will face a total of eight teams this season that are ranked or receiving votes in the preseason rankings.

HEART OF THE LINEUP RETURNS FOR 2013 SEASON Despite the graduation of a school record eight seniors from a year ago, the Red Raiders still return the heart of their 2012 lineup in seniors Sandy James, Mikey Kenney and Adriana Perez. The trio led Texas Tech in batting average, home runs and RBI a year ago to help send the Red Raiders to their third-straight NCAA Regional appearance. In addition, all three players currently rank among the Tech all-time leaders in multiple single-season and career categories in the school record book. James, Kenney and Perez accounted for 39 of Tech’s school record 66 home runs last season and nearly half the team’s total RBI while recording the squad’s three highest averages.

PITCHING DEPTH TO BE A PLUS WITH RETURN OF CUSTER, TALLEY For associate head coach Aly Sartini, the return of several familiar faces in the circle this season has the fourth-year pitching coach feeling good about her rotation as the Red Raiders return their two mainstays in the circle from a year ago in sophomore Cara Custer and junior Brittany Talley. As only a freshman, Custer

4 // 2013 TEXAS TECH SOFTBALL

became just the second 20-win pitcher in school history a year ago, joining the great Amanda Renfro, who owns the majority of single-season and career records in Texas Tech history. Custer and Talley will receive help in the circle from returning senior Ashley Brokeshoulder along with talented freshmen Gretchen Aucoin, Shannon Carrico and Tess McPherson.

YOUTH TO BE SERVED EARLY IN 2013 After having a group of returners scattered throughout the infield in 2012, Shanon Hays will see several new faces around the diamond this season as the Red Raiders return only one starting infielder from a year ago in first baseman Sandy James, who will also see time behind the plate. Texas Tech had a senior at each infield spot last year, minus first base, but will turn to a talented group of freshmen this season, notably Samantha Camello, Brooke Scott and Nikki Dunlap. Camello and Scott will likely see action up the middle while Dunlap will join returning junior Taylor Powell at either third or second base.

PEREZ, KENNEY PICK UP PRESEASON ACCOLADES Texas Tech seniors Adriana Perez and Mikey Kenney were honored in early January on the Preseason All-Big 12 teams selected by the website collegesportsmadness.com. Perez led the two selections as she was one of 12 players named to the first team while Kenney picked up second team honors in the outfield. It marked the second-straight year Tech had two players honored on the website’s preseason teams as Sandy James and Emily Bledsoe were both second-team recipients prior to the 2012 season. Perez also picked up thirdteam All-American honors by the website as well as she was joined by 10 other Big 12 players on one of the publication’s four preseason All-America teams.

JAMES MAKES THE MOVE BEHIND THE PLATE Following the graduation of four-year starter Holley Gentsch at catcher, Sandy James made the move behind the plate this past fall where she will split time with freshman Lexie Elkins. James, who was Texas Tech’s primary first baseman the past two seasons, caught throughout her prep career at Sabine High School and was behind the plate occasionally her freshman season at Angelo State.

ELKINS ADDS DEPTH BEHIND THE PLATE AT A YOUNG AGE For Lexie Elkins, age is only a number. As just a 17-year-old, Elkins will likely be one of the youngest, if not the youngest, players in the country this season as the Victoria, Texas native graduated high school a semester early in order to join the Red Raiders in early January. Elkins, a three-year starter for Victoria East High School, will give Texas Tech additional depth at catcher as she will combine with Sandy James for the majority of starts behind the plate. Elkins was the Co-Newcomer of the Year of district 30-5A during her 2010 freshman season and followed up by being named the district Co-MVP as a sophomore. She also garnered honorable mention All-American accolades in 2011 by the National Fastpitch Coaches Association.

FORMER SOCCER STANDOUT JOINS ROSTER FOR 2013 SEASON Former Red Raider soccer standout Tiffini Smith joined the softball program prior to the season, giving Texas Tech additional speed on the base paths. Smith, who will have two years of softball eligibility remaining, was one of the top midfielders in school history the past four seasons for Tom Stone’s soccer program that advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in school history in 2012. Smith wrapped her career tied for seventh all-time in Texas Tech history with eight career assists and eighth with 132 career shot attempts.

JAMES, KENNEY TO BATTLE FOR CAREER HOME RUN LEAD Mikey Kenney and Sandy James will battle throughout the 2013 season for which senior finishes her career as the school’s all-time home run leader. Kenney, who broke Kim Martinez’ previous school record of 27 midway through last season, enters the year with 32 career home runs, five more than James. Kenney belted 13 home runs last season while James added 12 as well as both players are prominant in the Tech single-season record book as well. James set the single-season mark with 16 home runs in 2011 during her first season in scarlet and black, breaking the previous mark of 15 that was held by Martinez (1997) and Kenney (2010).

SCHOONMAKER, SIGREST AMONG NEW FACES IN THE TECH DUGOUT Texas Tech will have two new faces in its dugout this season as assistant coach Chrissy Schoonmaker and volunteer assistant Sarah Sigrest are both entering their first year with the program. Schoonmaker arrives at Texas Tech after spending the past two seasons as the volunteer assistant at her alma mater, South Carolina.

Sigrest, meanwhile, comes to Tech following a highly-successful pitching career at Jacksonville where she helped lead the Dolphins to their first NCAA Regional appearance in school history.

RED RAIDERS GET OKLAHOMA, TEXAS BOTH AT HOME With five of seven Big 12 Conference teams currently ranked or receiving votes in either top-25 poll, Texas Tech will once again have its hands full when league play begins in late March. One positive for the Red Raiders, though, is that the conference’s two top-ranked teams - No. 2 Oklahoma and No. 7 Texas - will both travel to Lubbock for three-game sets this season. Tech will host the defending national runner-up Sooners on March 12-14 before Texas makes its trip to the South Plains on March 26-28. The Red Raiders went 18-4 last season at Rocky Johnson Field which includes a win over the then-No. 5 Longhorns in Texas’ only trip during the season to Lubbock.

RED RAIDERS TO MAKE FIRST EVER APPEARANCE ON ESPN2 Texas Tech will make its first ever appearance on the ESPN Family of Networks in May as the Red Raiders’ series opener at Baylor will air nationally on ESPN2. The Red Raiders and Bears were originally scheduled to open their three-game series on May 3, but will instead move to a Thursday-Saturday series. The Big 12 television schedule includes five conference games this season that will air on either ESPN or Fox Sports.

WEEK 2: TROY COX CLASSIC • GAMES 6-10

HEAD COACH

SHANON HAYS 6th Season Overall • 4th Season at Texas Tech • Lubbock Christian ‘91 Career Record: 238-69 • Record at Tech: 124-53

In three seasons as Texas Tech’s head softball coach, Shanon Hays has transformed the Red Raiders into not only a contender in the Big 12 Conference, but nationally as well with three-straight NCAA Regional appearances.

After inheriting a program that was only 15-42 in 2009, Hays has led the Red Raiders to back-to-back 40-win seasons as he has amassed a 121-51 record in three seasons, leaving the Lubbock native just 18 wins shy of already becoming the winningest coach in school history.

Most importantly, though, the Red Raiders have been in the postseason in each of Hays’ three seasons, advancing to the NCAA Stanford Regional in 2010, the Tucson Regional in 2011, and then the Seattle Regional a year ago. Tech fell in the regional finale in each of his first two seasons before Harvard ended Tech’s run in an elimination game in 2012.

Prior to his arrival, Tech had only advanced to the postseason twice in program history and had not recorded a winning record since 2001. The Red Raiders, who had also finished no better than eighth in the Big 12 standings in seven of the previous eight seasons, had never advanced to a regional in consecutive seasons as well.

Hays quickly changed that in 2010, though, as he helped lead the Red Raiders to a 38-18 record, a 23-win improvement from the year before, as well as a seventh-place finish in the league standings.

The Red Raiders fell to eventual College World Series participant Hawaii in the Stanford Regional after Tech overcome a first-day loss by topping both UC Davis and the host Cardinal to make its way into the regional finale.

With the majority of that squad returning the following year, the Red Raiders wrapped the 2011 campaign with a 42-16 overall record that marked the highest winning percentage in school history. It was also just Tech’s second 40-win season all-time as the Red Raiders were also 45-19 in 1998.

Hays became the program’s first coach to lead the Red Raiders to multiple postseason appearances later in the year as Tech was the No. 2 seed in the Tucson Regional. After overcoming another first-day loss, Tech fell to host Arizona in the championship game.

The Red Raiders had possibly their best season under Hays in 2012 as Tech ended the year fifth in the Big 12 standings behind a 13-10 league record, marking the program’s highest finish and first winning conference record since 2001. Tech navigated a 13-game stretch against top-25 teams midway through league play where the Red Raiders finished 7-6 with series wins over No. 25 Baylor and at No.

9 Missouri along with a midweek victory over No. 5 Texas.

Tech wrapped the regular season with a No. 23 ranking in the rating-percentage index (RPI) poll, seven spots higher from where it ended 2011. The Red Raiders also appeared in the top-25 rankings before closing the season by receiving votes for the second-straight season.

School records have fallen in droves under Hays as Tech has broken over 20 single-season marks in just three seasons, including the majority of the offensive record book. In 2011 alone, the Red Raiders snapped the single-season records for batting average, runs, hits, doubles, home runs, grand slams, RBI, total bases, slugging percentage and walks.

Hays has regularly produced one of the top lineups in the nation as the Red Raiders spent most of the 2011 season with the highest batting average in the nation before ending the year fourth overall. Tech’s .341 average that year was not only the highest in school history but it also snapped the Big 12 record that was previously set by Oklahoma in 2001. The Red Raiders also averaged 7.17 runs per game, a mark that ranked fourth in the nation as well.

In addition to hitting for average, pitches have left the ball park in record numbers under Hays as Tech belted 58 in 2011 before smashing a school-record 66 a year later. Seven of the highest single-season individual totals have come in the last three seasons with Sandy James leading the group with a schoolrecord 16 home runs in 2011. Mikey Kenney also owns the career record as she has totaled 32 home runs entering the 2013 season.

Tech’s transformation should come as little surprise after Hays’ work at Lubbock Christian. Following his appointment as the program’s first head softball coach in 2006, Hays worked for a full academic year in preparation for LCU’s first season in 2008.

The Lady Chaps did not disappoint in their inaugural season, compiling a 60-9 record and claiming the NAIA National Championship which earned Hays NAIA National Coach of the Year honors. Hays wrapped his two-year tenure at LCU with a 114-16 overall record after advancing to the national championship again in 2009.

Known as a top-flight recruiter and motivator, Hays was named the Sooner Athletic Conference Coach of the Year both seasons and produced five NFCA and NAIA first team All-Americans during his tenure.

Hays turned to softball after a successful career as a basketball coach that included two seasons on the Texas Tech bench as an assistant coach from 19992001 under James Dickey. He is the first person at Texas Tech to coach two completely different sports (one men’s and now one women’s).

Hays comes from a family of coaches as his father, legendary Texas Tech baseball coach Larry Hays, roamed the Red Raider dugout from 1987-2008, where he picked up 1,509 career wins, fifth-most in NCAA history. When not coaching on the diamond, Larry Hays also could be found on the fastpitch softball circuit where he pitched for several of the top local and national men’s teams.

Like his father, Shanon Hays also began playing fastpitch softball as a youth, along with both baseball and basketball, and competed on the summer circuit as well.

Shanon Hays began and ended his college career at LCU, graduating in 1991 with his degree in Education after also attending Texas Tech and competing from 1988 - 1990 for his father on the Red Raider baseball team. He competed for LCU prior to that on both the baseball and basketball teams.

He graduated from Lubbock Monterey High School in 1986 and makes his home in Lubbock with his wife, Tina, two sons, Hunter and Heath, and daughter, Hampton. #WRECKEMTECH \\ @TECHATHLETICS \\ 5
