Why all this interest in softball? Who cares? It's less a revenue producer than WBB. Isn't that measure we're supposed to use...revenue?
I thought there were only 2-3 WBB programs that turned a profit anyway, at least softball was producing with its budget.
How much NET profit does the softball program contribute to Tech?
Just curious, when to the ladies start fall practice? (I'm so uninformed on women's softball, I assume they do fall practice.)
Hate that I missed Coach Montgomery's tenure but when the day comes I get moved to Ruston, I'm buying season tickets. Never got "in" to women's basketball but softball intrigues me.
Lady Techster Softball practice starts Tuesday at the new Ruston Sports Complex in the baseball section until the softball area is completed. Extremely nice facility; actually better than what we had considering stands are larger, covered batting cages, etc. Softball has not charged regular season admission since 2010 or so. Typically they play intrasquad scrimmages or nearby teams on Saturdays in October.
Donald Pickett would actually be a good hire for us, in my opinion. He was a great hire for NSU and has led the Lady Demons to multiple conference titles and NCAA tournament appearances. They split with us last year and beat us in 2017. I don't think that all of our coaches should come from the Southland, but Pickett has a good resume and should at least be a candidate for the job.
