I was thinking while watching that freshman, was Brian the lefty who set the Texas record for batting average, something like .423, and a then record number of hits- 122?
I know Cisarik hit over .400 once here. He batted .389 for his career, topping Keith Moreland's .388 career mark at the time. Kid had a great eye at the plate.
Here's the list:
Sad to remember that we had our 2nd and 4th best all time hitters in the lineup in 88 and didn't go to Omaha because of a bad luck loss to Cal in the regionals.
