BASES LOADED: No. 3 Episcopal looks to go back-to-back in SPC
No. 3 -- Episcopal Knights
2023: 22-11-1 (SPC State Champions)
Episcopal is almost always the perennial favorite to win the SPC. Winning eight titles since 2010 – including last year’s championship acquisition – tends to give off that impression.
With nearly the entirety of last season’s roster returning, paired with the continued leadership of coach Matt Fox – who enters year No. 15 with the team – nothing stands to change.
All-SPC selections Ty Blevins, Chase McGarr, Aidan Eshelman, Logan Almeida, and Newcomer of the Year Preston Sullivan are all back in the fold, which bodes well for a potential repeat for the Knights.

PLAY BALL: No. 1 Episcopal has become a dynasty
No. 1 Episcopal Knights
Episcopal softball is a dynasty.
That’s the simplest way to describe a program that has won six-straight Southwest Preparatory Conference Championships and captured eight of the last nine crowns.
With eight starters returning for Caitlyn Cain in 2024, the Knights should be the heavy favorite to win it all again.
Florida-commit Townsen Thomas and New Mexico-commit Allie Williams will anchor this squad. Williams hit .520 with 11 homers a year ago.
Other notable stars returning include Jordan Bey (3.18 ERA, 85 Ks in 118.2 IP), Gianna Lewis (.405, 4 HR, 1.1144 OPS) and Elliot Loper (.391).
The motto for Episcopal is numerical for 2024 as Cain’s squad will live by “7-22”, a seventh-straight SPC title and 22nd overall in program history on the line this season.
