BYU’s softball team will be a huge underdog at the Stillwater (Okla.) Regional on Thursday when the NCAA tournament begins on the campus of Oklahoma State University, so the Cougars are understandably nervous and tense.
Good thing catcher Libby Sugg, a senior from Franklin, Tenn., is around for a little comic relief.
“I don’t know why that is, exactly,” Sugg said with her slight southern accent. “People just look at me and laugh. Maybe it is the way I talk. I am totally OK with that, if it keeps people laughing.”
West Coast Conference champion BYU (29-24) is making its 15th-consecutive NCAA regional appearance hoping to make it to a Super Regional for the first time since 2010.
