Vanessa Shippy is turning in Syracuse Orange for America’s Brightest Orange.
The former three-time All-American and 2018 Big 12 Player of the Year is back in Stillwater as a volunteer assistant coach for the Oklahoma State softball team, the program announced Monday.
“We can’t say enough good things about Vanessa,” Cowgirls coach Kenny Gajewski said in a press release. “When the opportunity presented itself to bring her back to Stillwater, we jumped at the chance. She’ll be a great influence on our program and we’re fortunate to have her back home with us.”
Shippy served as an assistant coach the past two seasons at Syracuse after one season in the National Pro Fastpitch league.
