2022 Softball Season

Looks like there will be radio play-by-play by Texas' Andrew Hyanes for all 5 games, and LIVE streaming for our two games against FGCU

No. 10/8 Softball visits the FGCU Kickoff Classic - University of Texas Athletics (texassports.com)


Live Stats: Available for all games – links on the softball schedule at TexasSports.com: LINK

Television: The only available broadcasts will be YouTube web streams of Texas' two match-ups against FGCU: LINK

Radio: Texas' games are scheduled for radio broadcast via web stream with Andrew Haynes on the call via this LINK. The Texas broadcast can also be heard locally on 105.3 FM as part of the Austin Radio Network supported by the flagship radio station of the Longhorns, 104.9 FM The Horn.
 
I messaged the Fgcu softball account and asked if all games were going to be streamed or just FGCU games and they responded with…

“I believe all games will be streamed, but let me check with our media team and get back to you!”

that was late last night so when they respond today I’ll let everyone know.
 
Okay, this is a bit convoluted, but to test out the stream, I clicked on the link provided in the tweet and it goes to their general YouTube channel which has past games from 3 months ago. Hmmm. So I went to FGCU's sports page for softball and I clicked on the link provided in their schedule, and I jump to their game currently ongoing with LIU. So, moral of the story in prep for tomorrow is to go to their web page and select the "Watch" link. Also, keep in mind their web site is showing Eastern times, since...they're in the Eastern time zone.

This is a fixed camera sitting behind home plate where you can't quite see first and third, but with a commentator.

We're spoiled with LHN, so it is what it is.

Update: only the Fgcu games will be streamed :rolleyes1: don’t understand why they can’t just turn the camera on and let fans of other teams watch the stream but oh well. This is why I’m grateful for longhorn network.

I just clicked on the link in the tweet I posted, and it took me to the youtube page, but the LIVE Clemson vs FGCU option was there; selected it, and it began playing the current game.

Clemson ace Cagle is pitching against FGCU.
 
Wow Clemson beat FGCU 11-0 in 5 innings. Could be a fun game tomorrow! Be interesting to see which pitcher Coach White starts?

I know very little about FGCU. NCAA stats tell me that the team was formed in 2002 as a D2 team and they went up into D1 in 2010. They've had mostly .500-ish seasons, except in 2019.

Clemson is tournament team only in their 3rd year of existence!
 

Just based on pictures, I don’t see Maloney, Scott, Simpson, or Cimusz. Don’t know if they made the trip or what’s going on but they aren’t present in team photos.
 
Maloney is red shirting, not sure why the other 3 aren't there.

Scored a run in the 1st. Surprise of the line up:

Burke in CF, and no Scott.
 
Woohoo! Great to start the season with a win against a quality opponent/pitcher.

I'm guessing last year's weather forcing cancellation of several home games is what led Coach White to schedule the first weekend of the season in Florida. And, of course, beautiful and 75 degrees in Austin today.

What are we doing offensively. That was awful and literally everyone looks wild in their swings either late or very early. Liked what Day brought, O’leary looked very rusty, Czech was great, defense was terrible. I thought Parker would’ve improved by now but she gets so nervous when the ball comes to her. Whitaker needs to be DP and not in the outfield but even then she hasn’t done anything offensively. We DESPERATELY need Scott and her bat and quickness in the infield. We looked pretty bad to sum it all up
 
O’Leary really laid an egg! I guess Huron and Dolcini are on deck for one of the games tomorrow. And so many errors killed us!

Yeah, Czech looked really, really good. I don’t want Bre Cantu or Camille Corona at 3B.. Too error prone and not great offense. And where is Mia Scott? Or when Mary isn’t catching like this game use her at 3B(although I think Mary should always be catching)

And why is Whitaker in the OF?? Popelka should be out there instead; with her speed, her bat has been pretty good at times. Whitaker should not be starting. Day as DP. We need the more offense players in the game right now. We struggled offensively tonight.

BUT, I think we got the jitters out. We play a pretty weak Boston College team tomorrow, and then FGCU again; then and a pretty easy Kent State team on Sunday. I think we sweep the rest of the weekend. We saw the two most experienced FGCU pitchers in this game, they won’t get us again.

Start Simpson in the morning or possibly even Shea—let her get some confidence back against BC— and Dolcini against FGCU; Czech in relief for either if need be. Start either Simpson or Shea on Sunday against Kent State depending on who didnt get the start tomorrow against Boston College.

Simpson isn’t in Florida and I just saw a tweet from Danny Davis saying it was a “coaches decision” not to bring Simpson, Scott, and Cimusz. Not sure what’s going on there but it definitely hurt us not having them there.

I still think we sweep the rest of the weekend, Shea will bounce back.
