Former Shockers Face Olympians
Earlier this summer, four recently graduated Shockers, Britnee Barnett, Katie McGeeney, Cynthia Verhulst, and Ashly Bright, had the opportunity to face the U.S. Olympic Softball Team as part of the Mid-West All-Stars. In addition, Coach Perniciaro was selected to be an assistant coach on the squad. The team was made up of mostly current and former athletes from different schools in the Missouri Valley Conference. Even though the Olympians had another dominating performance, our former Shockers represented our program well. Katie McGeeney was the leadoff hitter and recorded a hit off of Cat Osterman, while pitcher Ashly Bright pitched almost two innings, allowing a couple of hits and striking out Crytl Bustos and Caitlin Lowe. Former 4 time All-Missouri Valley shortstop, Britnee Barnett, dazzled the crowd with several great defensive plays.
