Two-Minute Drill

The idea for the Walk for Women event was initially developed by Cindy Gannon as a way to recognize the accomplishments of SEMO’s female student-athletes, while helping to raise money to support athletic scholarships. 

Redhawks women’s basketball sophomore Tesia Thompson was named to the Ohio Valley Conference First Team. This is her second consecutive All-OVC honor after earning second-team accolades last season.

Thompson finished the regular season leading the OVC in scoring with 18.5 points per game, totaling 519 points on the year. Thompson also led the league in free throws made and free throws attempted, and finished in the top 10 in rebounding.

The Redhawks Softball team is off to a blazing start this season, and last weekend celebrated a historic win.

Last Friday at the Razorback Invitiational, the Redhawks defeated the host Arkansas Razorbacks, who were ranked #12 in the nation. SEMO claimed a 2-1 lead on a Sarah Messex solo home run in the top of the fifth inning and never looked back, going on to score four more runs in the seventh en route to a 6-1 victory.

Redhawk student-athletes brought home multiple conference honors this week, for their performances last week and one for her performance over an entire season.

Believe it or not, it’s baseball season. And Opening Day for the Redhawks is here.

The SEMO Baseball team opens its season today, as Western Michigan comes to town for a three-game series. And before the season even began, the Redhawks have already started racking in national recognition.
