This highly successful shortstop was named the 2009 MAC Player of the Year. Also in 2009, Barkley earned first team All-MAC honors and was named to the 2009 National Fastpitch Coaches Association all-region first team. In 2010, Barkley garnered second team All-MAC accolades, while also being named to the MAC all-tournament squad.
A powerhouse at the plate, she helped Ball State earn back-to-back MAC regular season titles (2009 & 2010), a MAC Tournament championship (2010) and a trip to the NCAA Tournament (2010). Barkley still ranks third in the Ball State softball record books in career hits (252) and runs (149).
A two-time Academic All-MAC honoree (2010, 2011), Barkley made the 2011 CoSIDA Academic All-District first team and was a CoSIDA Academic All-America third team recipient.
