Baylor softball earned seven selections to the 64-member 2018 Academic All-Big 12 Softball teams, announced Thursday by the conference office.

Caitlin Charlton, Taylor Ellis, Maddison Kettler, Goose McGlaun, Madi O’Neal, and Kyla Walker were all selected as first team honorees, with Shelby Friudenberg selected as a second team member.

Baylor has placed at least six selections to the conference’s academic honors for 11-straight seasons and five or more for the 16th consecutive year.

First team members consist of those who have maintained a 3.20 or better GPA while the second team selections hold a 3.00 to 3.19 GPA.

To qualify, student-athletes must maintain a 3.00 GPA or higher either cumulative or the two previous semesters and must have participated in 60 percent of their team’s scheduled contests.

Freshmen and transfers are not eligible in their first year of academic residence. Senior student-athletes who have participated for a minimum of two years and meet all the criteria except percent of participation are also eligible.
