Softball’s freshmen Texas tandem turning heads
Louisiana Monroe Media RelationsTexas is known as the Lone Star State, but Seton Hall head coach Paige Smith has herself a duo.
Already 10 games into the spring season, freshmen standouts and Texas natives Madison Strunk (Adkins) and Chrisa Head (Lewisville) have provided a jolt to a Pirates team that finished 25-28 and 10-10 in the Big East play a season ago.
Strunk leads the staff with a 3.18 ERA and a 5-2 record. The 5-foot-10-inch righty also tops the team in strikeouts, innings, starts and appearances.
“I honestly don’t look at my stats,” she said. “My ERA is important to me because I want to keep it as low as possible for the team. But stats? No. I just want to get better.”
