“Zoie Bernard is an athlete that I had not heard much of until the past few weeks but was quickly impressed by her film,” said Gerry Glasco. “Her film and highlights were amazing. Her skill set is unique in that she has great speed with the ability to swing away. Reminds a lot of Mihyia Davis<\/a> when watching film. I look forward to seeing her develop over the coming years.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"LUBBOCK, Texas \u2013 Texas Tech softball announced the signing of outfielder Zoie Bernard on Sunday.
