History

edit

The Ramblers, despite winning the Horizon League regular season championship six times, have failed to win a conference tournament championship or qualify for the NCAA Division I softball tournament.[5]

Since forming a team in 1987, Loyola Chicago has won several different awards across conferences. The Ramblers won four Horizon League Coach of the Year awards, winning in 1993 with Terri Laux, 2001 with Stephenie Henderson, 2007 with Yvette Healy, and in 2011 with Missy Beseres-Dow. The team also won four HL Pitcher of the Year awards, winning in 2002 with Sarah Smith, in 2004 with Lindsey LaChiana, in 2007 with Amy Solava, and in 2012 with Brittany Gardner. Smith and LaChiana both shared their awards with UIC's Alison Aguilar in each respective season.[6][7] In 2014, Gardner was named Missouri Valley Conference Pitcher of the Year, earning the unique achievement of being named Pitcher of the Year in two different conferences across her career.[8][9]

On April 20, 2013, it was announced that Loyola Chicago would be switching conferences, joining the Missouri Valley Conference after 27 years in the Horizon League.[10] After a period of success in collegiate sports as a whole, it was announced on November 16, 2021, that the Ramblers would switch conferences again, this time joining the Atlantic 10 Conference.[11][12]
