RH: Freshman Pitcher Strikes Out 15
RH: Sedlacek vs. UABOn Friday, Wichita State coach Kristi Bredbenner saw a team that fell behind and tensed up.
By Sunday afternoon, Wilkins Stadium felt like a happier place, lit up by Chloe Barber's 15 strikeouts and a resurgent offense. The Shockers signed autographs after a 5-0 win over UAB gave them the series. CC Wong, surrounded by about eight youngsters, told them she wanted to see them play on that field one day.
"We sat down and had a chat in the locker room and talked it out – get us to believe in ourselves and know that we can beat this team if we compete," Wong said. "Compete. Go up there and have good at-bats. Be the team we can be. I think we showed that."
