Interview With Leanna Johnson

Leanna Johnson has been amazing this season for the Trojans and has not only been dominate, but consistent as well.
She is currently 22 and 5 on the season and has 175 strikeouts on the season. That win total also ranks in the top three in the nation by a single pitcher.
This interview is a little older, but they haven’t been home in about two weeks until tonight when they take on Appalachian State. In the interview however, Leanna talks about her complete game win over the Alabama State Hornets and how she can rely on the defense behind her even when she gives up a hit.

Trojans March Down to South

Welcome back to Inside Troy Women’s Basketball. The Trojans are coming off of a game where they beat the Louisiana Ragin Cajuns 90 to 64. That margin of win difference marked two games in a row where the Trojans won by 22 or more points. But the biggest standout from this game to me was Sky’Lynn Holmes. She finished the game with 15 points, which is a good amount for her. But where she shined was on the glass where she had 20 rebounds! I remember hearing her name called a lot at work at WTBF, but I did not think at the time it was that much. And this was a home game, so I really wish I could’ve been there to talk to Head Coach Chanda Rigby myself about that rebounding performance. And looking forward to the South game tomorrow, I don’t think it’s going to take a game like this from Holmes for the Trojans to win. Will Holmes put up 10 points and 10 rebounds? Probably. But what doesn’t happen every night is when the entire team has a good shooting night from three...

Softball On A Roll

As of late, the Softball team has been on a role and have won 12 games in a row.             Their most recent win was over conference rival South Alabama . And anyone who knows about that rivalry knows that it doesn’t matter what your record going into that game is. Both teams will play it close no matter what, and that’s exactly what happened.             Coming into that game, Troy was riding high on an eleven-game win streak, while South was struggling to try to get just their 3 rd win in conference and 13 th win overall.             Troy had started off slow, but picked it up in the third inning with 3 runs with Kaylee Hussey and Bailey Taylor both picking up RBIs. But, that is where the scoring would stop for the Trojans as they would go on to finish the game only scoring those 3 runs.    ...

Moving to Softball

Basketball season is officially over, so now its time to move to softball. So far on the year the softball team is off to a hot start on the season as they sit 22-13 on the year so far and is currently on a four game winning streak. And a big part of that winning streak and the strong start to the season in general so far has been freshman Leanna Johnson . She is a pitcher from Brantley, Alabama and is currently 14-5 on the season. And out of the last four games played, Johnson has started three of them and has gotten the credit for the win in two of them. The second most recent win she earned was on the road at Coastal Carolina where the Trojans won 11-3. In that game she pitched all 6 innings for the Trojans and gave up 7 hits and 3 earned runs. In that same game she also had 8 strikeouts and only 1 walk. That game would spark the Trojans to go on and win the next two over Coastal Carolina and get the sweep just last weekend. But, then they would travel back home to st...
