i get wanting to be known as the University of Louisiana instead of ULaLa, but what about UL-Monroe? I guess ULaLa ponyed-up more money (it is Louisiana after all).
IF we can host super regionals. Of course, that didn't work out for the volleyball team.
I think Texas has what it takes to beat Oklahoma. They lost key players and we lost none. Remember last season the first two games were very close against Oklahoma & literally came down to the last innings so its not like we don't have the talent because we definitely do it's really just a mental thing but I personally think we have all the pieces needed to beat them
I don't disagree. We're close. We've got two proven pitchers, they have one.
Sullivan really impressed me when I watched them during fall ball at catcher. Also Ellsworth... I think Iakopo's problem were her errors and she could not take down lead runners to save her life so I think Texas is really solid in that position. In terms of shortstop if not one of the freshmen then I think slack should get it but we will see. Texas really has depth which is something we lacked last season and offensively it's so many weapons that the lineup should be dominant every game
Volleyball had same major flaws with some of their veteran players. Poor back row play, terrible serving issues. That is what cost them a chance at the final four, and will continue until Elliott fixes the problem with better servers and subbing net players with good back row players ( if he can recruit any ). Our softball team is pretty solid.IF we can host super regionals. Of course, that didn't work out for the volleyball team.
Oh wow I did not know that! Lol still no way Elish should not be on that list as Texas is ranked #6 and she is our ace pitcher.
]Lol which volleyball players did you see?Last night the Softball team was at the Erwin Center to sign autographs before the WBB game against Baylor [I do NOT want to talk about it!
We arrived barely in time for the game and I thought the team would have left by then, but there they were, along the wall at two tables willing to sign more posters if people wanted.
General observations:
1) Odd seeing all these young women with their "hair down", literally their hair not in braids
2) I hate to say it, but a lot of them look alike - young, white, brunette
2b) Really, we're use to seeing them with visors or a helmet and their jerseys to help us quickly identify who they are
3) Except a handful that are of color or blonde
4) Large table that mostly held freshman/sophmores, and then a shorter table that had the "Clique" - Elish & company.
And then later, we walked past some of the volleyball players in their "civilian clothes". Yeah, all were way taller except Jhenna Gabriel.
Yeah she is fine. Coach white said it was a very minor injury.
Yes and No. Witchita State went 32-24 last year. That was their second game of the day. I didn't know if they put their best pitcher in the first or second game. Looking at last year's stats, their first (game) pitcher went 1-2. Their second game pitcher, against Texas went 15-12. So I guess they pitched us their best.
Then they also have freshman Danielle serna from Austin high school and I know she has a good bat and a great pitcher so I know she will be fired up to play us as mike white said. They will be a real test that I am very excited about.
