Softball season is quickly approaching on the Hill and WKU will trot out almost an entire new team in its opening doubleheader tomorrow.

“We are excited for the 2017 season,” head coach Amy Tudor said. “We have a lot of new faces on the team, including members of my staff. As far as the players on the team, we have 10 new players – eight freshmen and two junior transfers."

With just six returning players from last year's team, Tudor is excited for the opportunity to work with a group of young talent.

"I think you are going to see a young team that may not be very experienced, but we are hungry," Tudor said.
