Texas Wesleyan softball third-baseman Bailey Terry's selection as a first-team NAIA All-American was just one highlight of a great 2017-2018 for TXWES athletics.

From first-of-its-kind achievements to excelling in class, Texas Wesleyan was recognized by the Fort Worth Business Press for its strong performances throughout athletics during 2017-2018.

Quoting the story in the Business Press, “That’s a resume that any school in America can be proud of.”

Among the highlights mentioned

  • Softball junior third-baseman Bailey Terry became the first player in school history to be named a first-team NAIA All-American.
  • Baseball senior outfielder Kiki Menendez became the first player in school history to be named NAIA Player of the Year.
  • 147 athletes were named to the Sooner Athletic Conference Commissioner’s Honor Roll. That was the most of any team in the league, and the third straight year Texas Wesleyan led the way.
