The Cowgirls have won nine conference championships since the
program's inception in 1975. Under the guidance of coach Sandy
Fischer, Oklahoma State emerged as one of the most successful
softball programs in the Big 8, and went on to dominate the
conference by winning seven consecutive conference crowns from
1989-1995. The Cowgirls have finished in the top three of the Big
12 Conference five times since the league began competition in the
1997 season.
