Background

Tori played Division I softball at Tulsa University from 2016-2019. During her time at Tulsa, Tori was an all AAC tournament performer where she served as a utility player, making a home at 1st base over the course of her career. An all-state product of Van Buren, AR, she led Van Buren HS in career hits, home runs, and RBI. 

Expertise

Tori's expertise spans far and wide as she is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist with experience as an intern for GTS Performance and Fitness in Wisconsin. At Tulsa, Tori earned a Bachelor's in Exercise Sports Science and a Masters in Business Administration. Currently, she serves as the University of Arkansas Softball Graduate Manager while she goes for a second Masters degree in Sport Management. In 2019, Tori volunteered at the Women's College World Series assisting the NCAA director of championships. 

I have been coaching softball for over 40 years – high school, ASA/AFA, college and professional ball – and have come across a lot of people and players. Megan Turk will ALWAYS standout both as a player and human being. She brings knowledge, skill and a competitive edge to the game of fastpitch. She knows what it takes not only to win, but to be a WINNER!

Warehouse Why

"Ever since finishing my softball career at the University of Arkansas, I have been pursuing my degree in Occupational Therapy. I am passionate about this career path but have been missing the biggest part of my life at this point, which is softball. I love having the opportunity to impact young girls' lives and demonstrate to them the importance of not only the physical aspects of softball, but the emotional and mental aspects as well. This game has made me who I am and I love getting to share my passion with others!" - Stephanie Canfield
