STEPHENVILLE, Texas – Following a run to the WAC Tournament title game in the Texans’ first season of postseason eligibility, head coach Mark Cumpian announced the signing of Macie Vickers on Wednesday.
Vickers comes to Stephenville after a single season with the Nebraska Cornhuskers. She will look to fill a role that was previously held the past two seasons by Kalyn Hill, who recently wrapped up her playing career after transferring in from WAC foe Seattle U.
The Escalon, California, native, appeared in three games for the Huskers in 2025. In all three contests, Nebraska scored at least 15 runs with 20-1, 16-3 and 15-0 victories. She was perfect in the field as well.
Before she headed east to the cornfields, she spent her high school career at Escalon High School. During her time there she not only competed on the diamond but also put in work on the hardwood competing in basketball (four years) and volleyball (two years). Vickers was on varsity for all four years of her high school softball days and was a team captain for two seasons. With her efforts on the field, she was named an All-League Selection three times, was named Escalon Offensive Player of the Year twice and earned the Trans Valley League Offensive Player of the Year award her junior year. She was also selected for the 2023 PGF Futures All-American Game Watch List as well.
Each season the bat just kept getting hotter for Vickers as she hit .451 her freshman season and by her senior campaign, she hit north of .600. Across her four years, she hit over 20 doubles, five triples and hits 10 homers.
On the hardwood, she was the captain for the volleyball team and an All-League Selection. On the hoops side of things she was also named captain and was an All-District selection as she average over 14 points and six rebounds per game throughout her four-year career.
