Shane Showalter is entering his ninth season as head coach of the CSU-Pueblo softball team.

Under Showalter's direction, the ThunderWolves have been one of the most consistent contenders in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference.  In the past five seasons, CSU-Pueblo has qualified for the RMAC Tournament each season, finishing second twice (in 2006 and 2007). 

In 2009, the program reached a milestone in qualifying an NCAA Division II National Tournament berth, earning an at-large bid and eventually playing its way into a spot in the Central Regional Championship game, on the way earning the program's first-ever wins in a national tournament game.

Over the past five seasons, Showalter has coached the ThunderWolves to a 138-92 record.

Prior to joining the ThunderWolves' staff, Showalter was the head coach at Division III Colorado College in Colorado Springs. Prior to that, he was an assistant coach at Adams State.

Showalter earned both his bachelor's (Sports and Exercise Management) and master's (Exercise Physiology) at Adams State.

He and his wife, Monique, have a daughter, Maison. The family resides in Pueblo.
