The Saint Louis Billikens softball team represents Saint Louis University in the NCAA Division I college softball. The team participates in the Atlantic 10 Conference (A-10). From 1987 until 1991, the team was a member of the Midwestern Collegiate Conference. From 2000 until 2005, the team was a member of the Conference USA (C-USA). The Billikens are currently led by head coach Christy Connoyer. The team plays its home games at Billiken Sports Center located on the university's campus.
History
The Billikens have been a member of the Atlantic 10 Conference since 2006. The team won their first regular season championship in 2023 after finishing the season with a 30–26 record, one of the best records in program history. However, the team has failed to win the Atlantic 10 Conference tournament, subsequently failing to qualify for the NCAA Division I softball tournament. Since forming a team in 1978, the Billikens have failed to advance to the tournament.
The team's playing field, Billiken Sports Center, was built in 2000 and originally did not feature dugouts. Prior to the building of the softball field, the team was essentially a homeless travel team, playing in several different "home" fields in the St. Louis area, including Forest Park, ABC Ballpark, and the Affton Athletic Association fields.
In 2010, the program hired former Southern Illinois assistant coach Christy Connoyer as its head coach. Connoyer was named Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year in 2023, the program's first such award. Pitcher Brianna Lore was named Atlantic 10 Co-Pitcher of the Year in 2014, sharing the award with Fordham's Michele Daubman.
