INSIDE THE JACKSON STATE SERIESJackson State will make its second trip to Lubbock this weekend as the Tigers were swept over three games in 2010 in the first-ever meeting between the two schools. The Red Raiders won by a combined score of 31-3 as all three games ended via run-rule.
INSIDE THE MCNEESE STATE SERIESTexas Tech and McNeese State will meet this weekend for the fourth time in school history and just the first time since 2000 when the two schools met in the Troy Cox Classic held in Las Cruces, N.M. The Red Raiders won both games of the 2000 series to take a 2-1 all-time advantage over the Cowgirls. McNeese took a 4-2 victory at home in the first-ever meeting on Feb. 24, 1996. This is McNeese’s first-ever trip to Lubbock.
INSIDE THE NORTHERN COLORADO SERIESLike McNeese, Texas Tech and Northern Colorado will also be meeting for the fourth time in history as the Red Raiders control a 2-1 all-time advantage in the series. Northern Colorado took the previous meeting between the two schools with a 6-2 victory on March 15, 2009, at the San Diego State Classic. Tech previously took 3-0 and 12-2 victories in 2005 and 2006 with both coming at neutral sites.
TEXAS TECH IN HOME OPENERSThe Red Raiders are 11-6 all-time in home openers since softball returned as an intercollegiate sport in 1996. Texas Tech has won its home opener in each of the last three seasons with a 5-0 victory over Maine in 2010, an 8-3 win over Utah Valley in 2011, and then a 7-2 rout of Binghamton a year ago. The tournament marks the second-straight year where Tech has opened its home slate on the first weekend in March.
ON DECKThe Red Raiders will continue their 12-game homestand next weekend with the third-annual Jeannine McHaney Memorial Classic. Texas Tech will host UMKC, Indiana-Purdue Fort Wayne (IPFW), and Troy over four days while UT Arlington will also make the trip to Lubbock but will not face the Red Raiders during the event.
PEREZ ON PACE FOR RECORD SEASONHeading into her senior season, Adriana Perez consistently has said she wanted her final year in scarlet and black to be special. Through 15 games this season, Perez has lived up to that statement as she shares the Big 12 Conference lead with eight home runs and is second with 21 RBI. She hit four home runs alone in a doubleheader sweep of UMKC and Penn State on Feb. 16 en route to finishing with 14 total RBI over the five game weekend at the Troy Cox Classic. With just over a fifth of the season complete, Perez is currently on pace to shatter the Texas Tech single-season home run record of 16 set by Sandy James in 2011. The single-season mark for RBI belongs to Kim Martinez, who drove in 70 runners in 1997. Perez has now hit 23 home runs in just over a season at Tech, moving her into a tie for fourth all-time on the school’s career chart.
JOHNSON CONTINUES TO REACH BASEThrough 15 games this season, Shelby Johnson has done exactly what Shanon Hays envisioned when he recruited the junior college transfer - reach base. The Jefferson, Ga. native is the only Red Raider to reach base in all 15 games this season as she is third on the team with a .446 on-base percentage. Johnson is hitting .333 on the year with two doubles and 14 runs scored to go along with 10 walks. A year after finishing second nationally at the NJCAA level, Johnson has also given Texas Tech a threat on the bases as she is a perfect 8-for-8 on steal attempts this year.
CUSTER BEGINS TO FIND FORM FROM 2012After three complete-game performances at the Texas Shootout, Cara Custer seems poised for another strong season in the circle as the right-hander went 3-0 last weekend with no earned runs over 21.2 innings. Custer held Texas State to just four hits in the tournament opener Friday before coming back with a one-hit shutout of UT Arlington the following day. She also gave up three unearned runs in first inning of Sunday’s finale against Sam Houston State before settling down to frustrate the Bearkats the rest of the way. The three outings plus one brief relief appearance cut Custer’s earned-run average in half as she now boosts a team-low 2.12 ERA to go along with a 4-1 record entering this weekend.
NOTABLES• Texas Tech’s 10-5 start to its season is similar to early into last season when the Red Raiders ended the Texas Shootout with an 11-5 record entering its home opener. The Red Raiders closed the 2012 season 41-17 over-all with a selection to the NCAA Washington Regional. • The Red Raiders will look to continue their success in non-conference action under Shanon Hays this week-end as Texas Tech is 106-22 against out-of-conference foes in his three-plus seasons. • Texas Tech enters this weekend ranked second in the Big 12 with 19 home runs already this season, three less than conference leader Oklahoma. • The Red Raiders also rank fourth in the league with a .326 batting average and third with 101 runs scored.• Sandy James became the Texas Tech all-time leader in walks last weekend as she has now drawn 86 over her career, one more than previous record holder Emily Bledsoe (2009-12). • After three doubles last weekend at the Texas Shootout, James now shares the Big 12 lead as she now has eight on the season which is tied Taylor Thom of Texas. The Kilgore, Texas native had previously recorded nine doubles in each of the last two seasons. • Mikey Kenney enters this weekend ranked among the Big 12 leaders in runs scored (T-5th), total bases (5th), slugging percentage (9th), and on-base percentage (10th). The senior has reached base in 13 of 15 games so far as well. • In the circle, Cara Custer and Brittany Talley both rank among the conference leaders in most pitching cat-egories, including wins, innings pitched, strikeouts, appearances, and games started.

USA TODAY/NFCA TOP 25 POLL
ESPN/USA SOFTBALL TOP 25 POLL
JAMES BECOMES TEXAS TECH ALL-TIME RBI LEADERSandy James snapped the Texas Tech career RBI record at the Troy Cox Classic as the senior drove in nine runs on the weekend. She now has 122 RBI for her career, which passes the previous mark of 114 set by both Paula Workman (1997-2000) and former teammate Emily Bledsoe (2009-12). The Kilgore, Texas native broke the record with a second-inning grand slam against UMKC on Friday that was part of a five-RBI performance. She also added a three-run double the following day against the Kangaroos. James also holds a narrow lead on current teammate Mikey Kenney, who enters this weekend with 113 career RBI which ranks fourth all-time in school history.
HAYS BECOMES ALL-TIME WINNINGEST COACH ON OPENING WEEKENDShanon 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 131-56 during his three-plus seasons in the Tech dugout.
ELKINS HAS SUCCESSFUL START TO COLLEGIATE CAREERAs a collegiate athlete for just over a month, Lexie Elkins probably couldn’t imagine such a successful open-ing 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 at the Sportco Kick-Off Classic. 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 four-year career before becoming Tech’s graduate student manager this season.
RED RAIDERS FIND SUCCESS IN THE OPENING INNINGIf one thing was evident at the Sportco Kick-Off Classic 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 are 5-2 this year when scoring in the opening frame.
RED RAIDERS RECEIVE VOTES IN BOTH PRESEASON POLLSFor 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 SEASONDespite 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, TALLEYFor 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 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 Au-coin, Shannon Carrico and Tess McPherson.
YOUTH TO BE SERVED EARLY IN 2013After 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 ACCOLADESTexas 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 third-team 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.

WEEK 4: TEXAS TECH INVITATIONAL • GAMES 16-20
JAMES MAKES THE MOVE BEHIND THE PLATEFollowing the graduation of four-year starter Holley Gentsch at catcher, Sandy James made the move be-hind 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 AGEFor 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.
JAMES, KENNEY TO BATTLE FOR CAREER HOME RUN LEADMikey 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 mid-way 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 DUGOUTTexas 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 HOMEWith 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 ESPNTexas 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 ESPN. The game was originally set to air on ESPN2 before be-ing upgraded in late Feburary. The three-game series was set to begin on May 3 but will instead move to a Thursday-Saturday format. The Big 12 television schedule includes five conference games this season that will air on either ESPN or Fox Sports.
RED RAIDERS PICKED FOURTH IN BIG 12 PRESEASON POLLTexas Tech earned its highest Big 12 preseason ranking in school history in January as the Red Raiders were picked to finish fourth in the seven-team league. The fourth-place nod marked the Red Raiders’ highest preseason selection since the poll was created prior to the 2000 season, breaking the previous mark from 2001 when Tech was slotted to finish tied for sixth. Oklahoma was picked as the preseason favorite for the fourth time in the last five years as the Sooners, who finished as the national runner-up a year ago, notched 36 points in the poll followed by Texas with 29 and third-place Baylor with 28. Tech earned 20 points to finish ahead of Oklahoma State (20), Kansas (12) and Iowa State (6) in the poll.

BIG 12 WEEKLY AWARDS

WEEK 4: TEXAS TECH INVITATIONAL • GAMES 16-20
HEAD COACH
SHANON HAYS6th Season Overall • 4th Season at Texas Tech • Lubbock Christian ‘91Career Record: 245-72 • Record at Tech: 131-56
In three seasons as Texas Tech’s head softball coach, Shanon Hays has trans-formed 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 sea-sons, 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 Raid-ers, 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 con-secutive 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 Se-ries 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 fol-lowing 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 win-ning 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 of-fensive record book. In 2011 alone, the Red Raiders snapped the single-season records for batting aver-age, 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 school-record 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 inaugu-ral 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 cham-pionship 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 1999-2001 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).

COACHING ACCOLADES
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 soft-ball circuit where he pitched for several of the top local and national men’s teams.
Like his father, Shanon Hays also began playing fast-pitch softball as a youth, along with both baseball and basketball, and competed on the summer cir-cuit as well.
Shanon Hays began and ended his college career at LCU, graduating in 1991 with his degree in Educa-tion 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 daugh-ter, Hampton.
