No. 20 and No. 25 Rankings

PROVO -- A 9-1 start has led to BYU being ranked No. 20 in the Ultimate College Softball Coaches Poll, and a debut at No. 25 on the ESPN.com/USA Collegiate Top 25 Poll.

"This recognition is well deserved for this team, but we still have a long way to go," BYU head softball coach Gordon Eakin said. "It doesn't matter so much where we are now, but rather where we need to go and where we will finish."

With a lineup and team with depth, and packed with talent, BYU is looking to go further than ever gone before in the post-season.

The Cougars have five-straight appearances to post-season NCAA Regionals, but have yet to make it to Super Regionals or beyond.

"This is our goal this season and we are going to take this one game at a time," Eakin said. We don't want to put too much emphasis on our current rankings. Instead we want to keep our eyes focused on our end goal of going further than ever before."
