Tarleton announces softball schedule

Following back-to-back 30-plus win seasons and two postseason appearances, the Texans will look to keep the momentum going this spring.

“I’m excited about our 2024 schedule,” said head coach Mark Cumpian. “It presents us with some challenges right out the gate during the nonconference slate. We will see six teams that made the NCAA Tournament a year ago, along with some teams that will be much improved.”

The Purple and White will take to the diamond 55 times this season, 21 of those on home turf. The Texans will compete in five tournaments this go-around with one hosted in Stephenville. Each tournament will consist of five games for Tarleton State.

“Our team has worked hard all fall,”said Cumpian. “They have one goal in mind and that’s to win a conference championship. I feel that this team has all of the ability to do that.”

The Texans will travel to six different states throughout their season, playing 22 games outside of Texas state lines.

The Purple and White will open their season on the road with their first of five tournaments. The Texans will travel just across state lines to Lake Charles, Louisiana, where they will compete in the McNeese State Tournament Feb. 9-11. The 2024 season will get underway when they face Tennessee State at Joe Miller Field.
