Nicole Dickson Takes Over New Mexico Softball, Transfers and ACC-Big 10 Challenge




In our latest edition of In The Circle, our “New Faces in New Places” series continues as Eric Lopez chats with New Mexico’s new Head Coach Nicole Dickson. She discusses her decision to leave Stephen F. Austin and her expectations for the Lobos. She also shares her hectic schedule since taking over, working with her new Athletic Director Eddie Nuñez, coaching in a talented Mountain West conference, and more.

After the interview, the guys have plenty to say as they have more transfers to discuss, including a Division II power adding a former Longhorn and Ole Miss continuing to add reinforcements. Eric shares the announcement about the ACC/Big Ten Challenge and what match-ups he’d like to see in Clearwater involving Virginia Tech, FSU, and Nebraska, among others. We wrap up the show by breaking down the WCWS rating and how the MCWS finished in a dead heat. Victor and Eric also look at the nominees for the 2022 Extra Inning Softball Golden Mic Awards.
