Softball Earns #21 National Ranking
4/9/08

NAIA Softball Rankings

Cal State San Marcos softball is only in its second season, but the program is already making a mark in the NAIA.  That was proven by today’s national rankings, which listed CSUSM as the #21 team in the nation.

It's the first time in program history that Cougar softball has been ranked nationally.

Led by first-year coach Kelly Warren, the Cougars are 23-11 on the season.  They are currently ranked fourth in NAIA Region II, the most competitive region in the country. 

The young Cougar team features just one senior and four juniors – the other 20 players on the roster are freshman or sophomores. CSUSM’s biggest strength is its pitching staff, which has a 1.49 ERA so far this season, the 10th best in the NAIA.

Last year – the first in program history – Cougar softball went 10-31.
