Coming out of the gates fast and dominating the non-conference schedule can go a long way in having a successful year.
After a positive outing at the annual Red and White Game last weekend, the Cougars return to action with a packed schedule this weekend, hosting the Houston Hilton Plaza Invitational. The Cougars will play in five games at Cougar Softball Stadium, looking to get out to a fast start under new head coach Kristin Vesely.
The season officially starts Friday, with the Cougars hosting Wright State and UC Santa Barbara in back-to-back games, followed Saturday by two more games against Boston College and Wichita State.
