Former Dodge City High School player and current Southeast Missouri State Redhawks infielder, Taryn Coon, will compete in the NCAA D1 Softball Championship Tournament.

There are 64 teams in the tournament, with the final eight teams receiving an invite to Omaha, Nebraska to play for the College World Series title.

The Southeast Missouri State Redhawks begin the tournament as a number 12 seed and will square off against the 12th seeded Arkansas Razorbacks.

The first round, Regionals, is double elimination where a team is only eliminated after two losses. From there, 16 teams will make the Super Regionals and play a best-of-three series.
