WICHITA, Kan. – Buoyed by a stellar second half performance in the circle, Friends University junior pitcher Hali Walters has been selected to the KCAC Softball Preseason Team, the league announced today (Jan. 30).

Consistently solid all season, Walters took her game to the next level down the stretch, going 10-1 with 66 strikeouts and a miniscule 0.83 ERA during the month of April.

A native of Longmont, Colo., Walters led the KCAC in wins (19) last year and ranked third in the league in strikeouts per game (6.70) and fifth in ERA (2.58).

Walters' performance coincided with the Falcons picking up steam as a unit, winning 18 of 21 games that included sweeping all four games of the conference tourney to clinch an NAIA National Tournament berth.

During the Falcons' KCAC tourney championship run, Walters was at her best, winning all four games while posting a 1.25 ERA and a solid 23-7 K/BB ratio. In the final two games against top-seeded Avila University, Walters limited the Eagles to just two runs over 14 innings, with 11 strikeouts against only three walks.

Walters and the Falcons will begin the 2020 campaign next weekend (Feb. 7-8) with four games at the NAIA College Cowtown Classic in Ft. Worth, Texas.
