Tiffany Ricks is in her first season with the Bowling Green State University softball program. Head coach Sarah Willis announced the hiring of Ricks as an assistant coach on August 25, 2015.
"Tiffany is coming to the Falcon softball program after finishing a standout career with the Dayton Flyers, and her experience as one of the Atlantic 10's top offensive threats will provide great experience to our athletes," said Willis. "She played the game with an incredible amount of tenacity, heart and focus. I believe her approach to the game will make a significant contribution to the program."
Ricks, a native of Reynoldsburg, Ohio, is beginning her coaching career at BGSU, after wrapping up an incredibly successful playing career in the spring of 2015. A graduate of the University of Dayton, Ricks was named the Atlantic 10 Conference Player of the Year in '15, after batting .393 on the year, including .446 against A-10 opponents. She led the league in home runs (12), runs batted in (36) and runs scored (33).
Ricks, a first baseman, was named to the NFCA Mid-Atlantic Region Team in each of her last two seasons. She was named to the All-Atlantic 10 Team three times, and finished as UD's career leader in RBI (126) and slugging percentage (.660). Ricks ranks second all-time in career homers at Dayton, with 36.Â
Ricks and the Flyers earned the program's first Atlantic 10 regular-season title in 2015, breaking the school records for overall (39) and conference (20) wins in a season. UD went 39-14 overall and 20-2 in conference play, and advanced to the A-10 Tournament Championship final for the first time in school history.
Ricks graduated from UD in May of 2015 with a bachelor's degree in marketing.
