Indiana State University Athletics

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Indiana State junior Leslie Sims was honored by the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) Thursday as she received All-Region honors for the second consecutive year, becoming the first Sycamore in school history to receive the recognition in back-to-back years.
 
Sims claimed Second Team All-Region honors for the second consecutive year and she becomes the second player in school history to receive multiple all-region honors. However, Katie Armour, who claimed all-region accolades twice in her career, did so in non-consecutive years (2006, '09).
 
In her junior campaign this season, Sims led Indiana State with a .400 batting average, 72 hits and 34 stolen bases. She became the school's all-time leader in stolen bases, finishing the season with 80 career steals, and in runs scored, crossing the plate for the 109^th time in the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament.
 
Sims will enter her senior year with 190 career hits, 109 career runs, 80 career stolen bases and a career batting average of .394 with two career inside-the-park home runs.
