Johnson hit .336 w/ 13 HRs, 9 2Bs & 40 RBI in 2024 as a sophomore to earn 2nd Team All Pac-12 & NFCA All-Region Honors. Softball America lists Johnson as the 2nd best player available in the portal.

Valdez hit .293 with 4 doubles, 1 triple, 9 home runs and 36 RBI in 2024 to earn NFCA All-Region honors.
One coaching change is tough to navigate & go through. Two is even more challenging. It’s unfair & heartbreaking your student-athlete experience has gone this way.
Thank you for ALL your program contributions you have made & will continue to make. RRN loves & supports y’all ♥️🥎

Langeliers holds a .306 career batting average, with 21 doubles, 35 home runs, 126 RBI and 110 runs scored over three seasons at Louisiana.
🚨She's coming home! Lubbock native Makayla Garcia is joining Texas Tech softball after winning a National Championship with UT-Tyler.
Garcia hit .362 to earn Lone Star Conference Freshman of the Year as well as being named a finalist for the National D-II Freshman of the Year.
I’m sorry but Penn State in College Station is absurd. They had the opportunity to have Tech, TXST, and TAMU in one regional. Why was this not an issue last year in Austin to have 3 Texas teams?

Good Morning

, this is the last time I will bother you. Later today, you have the decision to put
@TexasTechSB
in your tournament. You know what the right decision is. Idc if you get all the top 8 seeds wrong, just make sure my Red Raiders get in. Thank you 🙏
When you can, I recommend watching Bailey Maupin’s “I Am Second” interview. Truly captivates the struggles students and athletes go through balancing their faith and college responsibilities all at once. So good to see her be vocal and open on this!!
I got automatically accepted into TTU and TAMU’s business programs.
The difference is at Tech, I feel valued as a student and not seen as just a number. The opportunities and relationships I’ve had in my first year here are far better than what I would’ve received at TAMU imo!
Despite the disappointing technicals and loss, the nights leading up to that were fun core memories I’m never going to forget. Thank you
@TheRaiderRiot
for putting so much time and effort to ensure hundreds of us were well taken care of!!

I just realized Spring Break falls BEFORE March Madness opening week.
While I’m incredibly upset, this happened to me once back in 2019. I convinced my parents to pull me out of school to watch the TTU vs NKU game at a sports bar, and well, the rest of the season was history 😏
this is going to be a special season for Texas Tech Volleyball! especially keep an eye on leaders Brynn Williams (Jr) and Maddie Correa (Sr)!!

Emily played for a Minnesota state winning team in high school, until 2 ACL injuries ended her career. For her to rediscover and give back to WBB in a different way has been a big blessing to us. She’s always finding ways to attract students to games and support our Lady Raiders!
Congrats to Emily Sanchez, our VP & Treasurer for the 24-25 Lady Raider Basketball season!
