• Sara Vanderford, a freshman from Pasadena, Texas, set a career high with four runs batted in during Texas State's series-clinching win at Georgia State on March 8. She clubbed a three-run home run in the first inning, before following with a run-scoring hit in her next plate appearance.
• Meagan King tossed her sixth career seven-inning complete game shutout on Sun- day, March 8 when the Bobcats beat Georgia State 7-0.
• Texas State is sitting atop the Sun Belt Conference in the stolen bases per game department as the Bobcats have stolen 1.83 bases per game heading into its 24th game of the season.
• The Texas State pitching staff is one of the top 10 staffs in the entire country heading into Wednesday's game at Texas A&M.
