Iowa State's season can be summarized in many ways: the scoring struggles, the on-and-off hitting and the pitching struggles are just a few, but some players on the team say the season comes down to team cohesion.
Team cohesion helped the team through the roller coaster season.
“Through the high and lows, we always stuck together,” said junior outfielder Brittany Gomez. “That is what defines us as a team.”
The Cyclones worked on hitting and scoring.
All of the usual starting players scored more than 10 runs. Gomez led the team in runs scored, at 43, and she led the team and the Big 12 in hits, at 79.
