LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The Texas A&M University-Commerce softball team is ranked seventh nationally in the national coaches' poll released by the National Fastpitch Coaches Association on Wednesday. This marks the 36th consecutive poll in which A&M-Commerce has been ranked in the nation's top 25.
 
The Lions are 3-1 entering this weekend's Irwin Classic, where they will face No. 3 Augustana and St. Mary's twice apiece. A&M-Commerce has been kept away from the diamond by winter weather conditions since the opening week of the season and did not move in the polls, as the top nine in the nation stayed steady.

A&M-Commerce has eight teams in the top 25 on this year's schedule. No. 1 Southern Arkansas, No. 3 Augustana, No. 4 UT Tyler, No. 10 Oklahoma Christian, No. 16 Rogers State, No. 19 Angelo State, and No. 24 Lubbock Christian are all scheduled to visit the John Cain Family Softball Complex. The Lions are scheduled to visit both Rogers State and No. 18 Texas A&M-Kingsville.
