1st Base: Shippy Hits For Cycle In Win
Junior Vanessa Shippy hit for the cycle to help lead the Cowgirls to a 10-1 win over Connors State last Tuesday. Senior Brandi Needham picked up the win in her first start of the fall. With her performance, Shippy is now batting a team best .750 on the fall with nine hits and four RBIs.

2nd Base: Speed Speed Speed
It's been an impressive start on the bases for the Cowgirls, especially in the stolen base department. Oklahoma State runners are 13-for-14 on stolen base opportunities through three games with junior Alex Edinger leading the way with three.Â

3rd Base: Lots of Zeros
Oklahoma State's pitching staff has been efficient and impressive thus far.
