2016 Legacy Softball Capsule

Head coach: Robert Nelson, first season

2015 record: 13-18 (0-8 Southwest, fifth)

Returning letter winners (starters): Six (four)

Top players: SS Alyssa Sotelo (Sr.), P Haley Pedersen (Jr.), P Amanda Sink (Fr.), 2B/P Kellie Nelson (Sr.)

Outlook: Nelson inherits a team that struggled in league play last season and brings back only six letter winners, including Sotelo (.467, 28 RBIs).

“The Longhorns look to rebuild this year,” Nelson said. “There will be high hopes and expectations, but first and foremost, this team is looking to come together as a family and play hard together.”

Nelson said he has worked hard in the offseason to have everyone focused on the same goals.

“We will be competitive,” Nelson said. “We have some transfer talent and some young players that look promising.”
