Kristi Bredbenner is the coach of the Wichita State softball team. She won career game No. 300 at Wichita State with a 9-2 win over Kansas on March 14. She is 303-243-1 in 11 seasons, including a 17-9 record this season.
 
She is 11 wins away from passing Jim Maynard as the program's winningest coach.

We discuss weird injuries, a conversation at a team barbecue between returners and feisty newcomers that set the tone for the season and how advice from her father helped during tough times. We talk about the influence of first baseman Cacy Williams during the early years of the rebuild.

We get nostalgic over the 2014 team that won the team's first MVC title and detail her biggest wins and two regrets. Bredbenner tells us how former Wichita State senior associate athletic director Becky Endicott sent a secret emissary to gauge her interest in the job in 2011.
