Abilene Christian head coach Bobby Reeves has stepped down from his position at the helm of the school’s softball program.
The announcement of Reeves’ departure, made late Saturday night, means the Wildcats will embark on a search for just the fourth head coach in program history.
Reeves spent nine seasons as the Wildcats’ head coach, collecting a 216-232 overall record during his tenure. ACU went 116-113 in conference play during that time, including posting a 78-77 record in Southland Conference play.
Under Reeves’ guidance, the Wildcats transitioned from the Division II level to Division I in 2013 after playing in the D2 Lone Star Conference for the entirety of the softball program’s existence to that point. During the 2017 season, Abilene Christian finished second in the Southland regular-season standings with a 20-7 record in conference play.
Before assuming the helm of the Abilene Christian program, Reeves was previously the head coach at Texas State and Texas Tech, and owns a 345-367 career record as a head coach. His coaching resume also includes stints as an assistant coach at Texas Tech, Harding University, and on the baseball staff at Lubbock Christian University.
