The softball team opens its season this weekend in Shreveport at a tournament hosted by Centenary.
Centenary is a member of the Summit League and are a preseason pick for seventh of nine teams in the league. Western Illinois is the preseason pick to win the conference.
Other participants are Houston Baptist, University of Memphis, Southern University and Nicholls State.
The HBU Huskies are a member of the Great West Conference. Updated Web sites are not a high priority for this conference.
The Tigers of the University of Memphis are members of Conference USA. Again, no release of preseason picks. Tulsa won this conference last year.
The Southern University Jaguars are members of the SWAC. They are picked to win the Western Division of the conference, which has five teams.
The Nicholls State Colonels are members of the Southland Conference are picked to finish eighth of eleven teams in the conference. Texas State is a perennial powerhouse in this conference.
The Shocks are a preseason pick for sixth in the Missouri Valley. They play Nicholls State and Memphis on Friday, Centenary and Southern on Saturday, and Houston Baptist on Sunday. Frankly, not winning this tournament would have to be a disappointment.
