SALT LAKE CITY, Utah - The University of Utah women's softball team will play several that ended the 2007 season in the Top 25 and two squads that reached the Women's College World Series during the 2008 season, head coach Amy Hogue announced today.
Hogue begins her tenure with the Utes during the fall season at home in a doubleheader against SLCC on Friday, Sept. 21 before traveling to Utah State for a doubleheader on Sept. 29. Utah will play at the Utah Valley State tournament as well as the Southern Utah tournament, with the fall culminating in several `Red and White' scrimmages.
The Utes will play six tournaments to start the regular season. Utah opens the year with the Red Desert Classic in St. George on Feb. 28 against the Big Ten's Wisconsin. The Utes will also take on Rhode Island, Southern Utah, Idaho State and Northern Colorado during the tournament.
Utah moves on to the Kajikawa Classic, Feb. 15-17 at Arizona State, a tournament which typically features some of the top teams in the nation. The Utes will face Notre Dame, Texas State, Texas Tech, Western Michigan and No. 15 Oregon State. Utah travels to Austin, Texas, for the Texas Classic, Feb. 29 - March 2. Utah, Wisconsin, No. 24 Texas and Wichita State play for a title throughout the weekend.
No. 8 Arizona State hosts the Diamond Devil Invitational, March 7-9, where Utah will also play UC Davis, San Diego and Pacific. At the San Diego Classic at San Diego State, March 14-16, No. 7 Texas A&M and No. 16 Cal State Fullerton provide the Utes with one of their biggest challenges during the season.
The Kia Classic at Cal State Fullerton rounds out the tournament schedule, March 20-23.
"Our preseason schedule is very competitive. Every tournament we play in has a Top 25 team there," Hogue said. "It will be a good warm up for the Mountain West schedule and help us play to our potential. I am looking forward to getting out on the field."
The Utes take on several in-state rivals before the conference season begins, including Southern Utah, Utah State and Utah Valley State. Colorado State kicks off the Mountain West campaign with a doubleheader on April 3. Utah will play each team in the MWC (Colorado State, New Mexico, San Diego State, UNLV and BYU) four times during the season before the NCAA Softball Championship begins on May 16.
