The Mississippi State softball team is honoring one of its most inspiring players to ever play for the Maroon and White. This past season, Alex Wilcox was a freshman with the Bulldogs and her story is truly an inspirational one.
Unfortunately, Alex Wilcox didn’t get anywhere near enough playing time. But that wasn’t any fault of hers or the Mississippi State softball coaching staff. It had nothing to do with anything on the field or any off the field controversy. Alex Wilcox fearlessly battled ovarian cancer.
Wilcox had been battling the horrific disease for years. But, she did so bravely and showed love to all of those around her.
