Kim Dunlap Borders is in her 16th season as an assistant softball coach at Campbellsville University, working primarily with pitchers. Borders is the owner and pitching instructor at BSA Softball Academy in Scottsville, Ky.
Borders has been integral in developing an All Mid-South Conference pitcher in every season since 2011 as the list includes Morgan Gailor, Neely Quint, Victoria Decker, Taylor Wroe, Kelsi Pardue, and Martina Riney. Both Quint and Decker were NAIA All-American selections as Quint earned the honor in 2018 and Decker was a two-time selection in 2015 and 2016.
Since she joined the coaching staff in 2010-11, Borders, Bryce White, and head coach Shannon Wathen have established a solid structure within the softball program as the three have won 370 games the nine-season stretch. Borders has been on the staff for four Mid-South Conference Regular Season Championships, two MSC Tournament Championships, five appearances in the NAIA National Tournament, and an NAIA World Series appearance.
During her playing days, Borders was a four-time high school All-American while leading Ezell Harding Christian School in Nashville, Tenn., to four state championships. She also led her summer team to the ASA 18 National Championship in 1997. In College, she was a two-time All-Region selection at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, while helping the Ragin' Cajuns to four straight NCAA regional appearances. She was named the Sunbelt Conference Pitcher of the Year in 2000 and was a National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) Scholar-Athlete.
Following her collegiate career, she returned to Club K, where she formerly trained 10 years under Cheri Kempf. She instructed and trained hundreds of pitchers over a five-year span before starting BSA.
Borders resides in Scottsville, Ky., with her husband, Spencer. They have three daughters, Taylor, Savannah and Hadley.
