About the Aggies:
The Aggies are coming off their fifth straight series win last weekend, going 2-1 against Angelo State. They opened the series with a walk-off 5-4 win thanks to a bases loaded walk by Alyssa Osterdock in game one. Bethany Hines pitched a four-hit gem in game to lead CU to a 4-0 win. In the series finale, Cameron lost a 5-4 contest, despite a trio of homers from their two, three, and four hitters.

Cameron enters the weekend hitting .320 with 233 runs scored and 94 extra-base hits, 43 of which are long balls. Seven of CU's nine starters are batting over .300 (min 2PA/G), led by Khmari Edwards' .395 average. The freshman from Del City, Okla. also has a team high 36 RBI, has eight homers, and is 18-18 on the base-paths. Shortstop Brenna Busby is batting .370 with 12 homers, 35 RBI, and 19 stolen bases, while Raley Long, Callie Busby, and Breley Webb are all hitting over .340 as well.

In the circle, the Black and Gold have one of the best pitching staffs in the Lone Star Conference, posting a 2.95 ERA with 191 combined strikeouts in 247 innings of work. Webb is 7-1 with a team best 2.39 ERA and 60 K's in 64.1 innings of work. Hines leads the LSC with five saves and is 10-5 with a 2.71 ERA and 69 strikeouts in 85.0 innings pitched. Additionally, Rylee Willmon is 7-4 in 12 starts with a 3.11 ERA and 41 punch-outs in 72 innings.  

Scouting the Pioneers:
Texas Woman's is now 10-21 on the season and 8-13 in conference play after being swept by Texas A&M-Commerce in three games last weekend. They recorded just two runs during the series, but also held the hard-hitting Lions to just 4.7 runs scored per game.

Just two Pioneer hitters on hitting over .300 (min 2 PA/G), while the team is hitting just .254 with 94 runs scored and 52 extra-base hits. Paige Tamayo is hitting .366 with five homers, 22 RBI, and 15 runs scored, while Tylia Sylestine is batting .333 with 11 RBI and 13 runs scored.
