📈 STOCK UP

🔼 No Egg Shortage Here. Eggs may be sparse and expensive for much of the country, but there’s plenty to go around for the Troy softball team.

Goose eggs that is.

On Wednesday, the Trojans picked up not one, but ✌️ shutout victories with a sweep of visiting Alabama A&M. That makes it five shutouts in the past six games for Troy and six in the past eight overall.

The victory runs Troy’s win streak to six and improves their overall record for the spring to 18-9 with Sun Belt Conference action on the horizon this weekend.

🔼 We Talkin’ About Practice. Phase I complete.

In a competitive two-hour session at The Vet, the Troy football program wrapped up its first two week phase of spring practice.

The session marked the first practice in full pads this spring and last workout before an 11-day hiatus for spring break.

🔼 Welcome Aboard. A defensive coaching veteran joined the Trojans this week as head coach Gerad Parker announced the addition of Brandon Cooper to the staff.

Cooper comes to Troy after spending the past three seasons at Samford. With the Trojans, he will over see the cornerbacks.

He has coordinator responsibility on his resume, serving as the defensive coordinator at Samford and Austin Peay, in addition to roles as co-defensive coordinator for three seasons at Charlotte and two seasons at Austin Peay.

🏆 GRAB YOUR CHAMPIONSHIP GEAR!

Today’s Trojan Top Performance, brought to you by Conecuh Sausage, is, sophomore southpaw Alyssa Faircloth.
