    https://sports.yahoo.com/angelo-state-baseball-defeats-rollins-211650703.html https://angelosports.com/sports/baseball/roster Congrats to Angelo St for winning the DII National Championship over Rollins (Winter Pk, Fl). Kirk Dressendorfer's son is a pitcher, Sophomore, did not pitch much this year. Looks just like his Dad (photo). Excerpt: The Angelo State baseball team won its first NCAA Division II National Championship in program history by beating Rollins 6-5 on Saturday at the USA Baseball National Training Complex in Cary, North Carolina. The Rams won in nail-biting fashion after holding a 6-2 advantage entering the ninth inning.
  2. Same sentiments. LHN did a great feature on her and her Mom who is a breast cancer survivor. Great story on how her Mom supported her and made trips from MD Anderson to see her play. Her Mom is cancer free, hope she remains so. On a phone, don't have time to link. May want to google if interested.

  4. https://www.oklahoman.com/story/sports/college/softball/2021/05/07/ou-softball-patty-gasso-sooners-pipeline-batbusters-southern-california-talent/4969532001/ Above article is 2 years old but still holds true. Gasso, native Californian, has built a strong pipeline to one of the Nation's premier youth softball teams. Note the players from that program. And success permits attracting other top recruits and transfers. Excerpts: This season, nine former Batbusters are Sooners, constituting more than a third of the roster. What’s more, they are some of the biggest contributors for top-ranked OU. Jocelyn Alo. Tiare Jennings. Kinzie Hansen. Nicole May. Gasso spent several years recruiting Romero’s older sister, Sierra, who ultimately chose Michigan. “My heart broke,” Gasso said. “But I felt like I was a little late to her recruiting party. So, I made it a point that I was going to be first in line for Syd Romero.” Romero was playing for Stith, so Gasso called him. It would be the first of many conversations, and when Romero committed to OU, Gasso had a feeling Stith’s teams might produce even more Sooners. She felt a connection between the programs, like they were kindred spirits.

  6. Like Texas, the standard at Miami is Omaha. Historical program been on the downside for awhile. (4 NC's). Passionate baseball alumni. DiMare made questionable pitching decisions in the Regional likely to our benefit. Elected to pitch Ziehl (most proven at the time) vs Maine and Ligon (injury, thrown 2 innings since April) vs us. Miami had struggled finding a 3rd starter all season and Ligon's injury presented further complications. But LSU's Johnson threw Skenes vs Tulane so who am I to say. Reading the background, Miami's AD (Radakovich) came from Clemson in '21. He may have given DiMare an extension in '22 mainly for recruiting purposes. And after Regional failures post Covid, had to make a move. Miami has $$$. Will be interesting to see if they offer to long time asst JD Arteaga or go outside the family. Seems Cliff Godwin, East Carolina, would deserve an interview though he is coaching his alma mater.

  11. Not sure, don't have time to check. But I believe the 2 DH's permit Powell to stay in the game as DH should his back issue appear. Coral Gables, FL Weather and Radar Map - The Weather Channel | Weather.com You guys figure this out, fast moving but alot.
  12. Watts-Brown is rated a top 50-100 prospect by many services. They apparently see something there they can develop and he does have 117 K's in 78 inn. But wow, not a good overall year for OKSt.
  13. I saw the ESPN stat stating OU's BA is .214 vs pitchers throwing 70+. But just can't understand Weekly's reason in starting a freshman in this critical game. In her last outing vs Indiana gave up 3 runs on 3 hits in 2 inn. FML ! and OU !
  14. https://weather.com/weather/radar/interactive/l/669f994f68cc0d8c63d67f4b92cca44047f4e799c8927693d1b54d6dbfd74930 Radar indicates will not clear until approx 2PM (CDT).
  15. Good reporting on the thread, 3putt ! Are you familiar with Sinton's Aidan Moody ? Looks like a winner. '24 grad, Perfect Game has him uncommitted.
  16. Good Luck today to Tennessee players Zaida Puni and Mackenzie Donihoo (OU transfers) vs their former teammates and the coach that recruited over them. May they keep their emotions in check for an outstanding performance and Tennessee victory.
  17. Coral Gables, FL Weather and Radar Map - The Weather Channel | Weather.com Radar shows clearing close to 3PM (CST).
  18. Monitor the NCAA Twitter.
  19. Regional press conferences. Pierce states Lucas will start (4:00). One factor "may" be ULL's stolen base rate (161-218). Remarkable stat. https://247sports.com/college/miami/article/video-texas-longhorns-baseball-louisiana-and-maine-press-confere-211007194/
  20. AAS article. MW comments on the future. Excertpts: Texas loses just one player — reserve outfielder Lou Gilbert — to graduation and will welcome back nine underclassmen Two freshmen should make a push for immediate playing time, based on their skill set and position. Kayden Henry is a consensus top 10 national player who can play in the outfield or infield. She batted .616 and had 32 stolen bases this past season for Dickinson, a Class 6A school south of Houston. She also stars in track and field for her high school, and White says her athleticism reminds him of Jefferson or Scott. "Kayden is an electric player,” he said. “She is truly dynamic on the field and will thrill Texas fans with her plays both offensively and defensively." Pitcher Teagan Kavan also could find an immediate niche on the pitching staff. All four Texas pitchers this season — Morgan, Gutierrez, Sophia Simpson and Estelle Czech — recorded an ERA of under 3.00, but the staff averaged only .79 strikeouts per inning. White would like a true strikeout pitcher to add some options to his staff, and Kavan fits that description. A 6-foot right-hander from Iowa, Kavan did not play high school ball but thrived at the elite club level, where she averaged almost two strikeouts an inning in her career. "Teagan is a future ace for this program with her excellent movement, speed and change of pace from the circle,” White said. “She has that rare combination of possessing all the necessary pitches in her arsenal to combat hitters at this level." Texas softball coach Mike White: Future looks bright for Longhorns (statesman.com)
  21. One game at a time, 'fellas. ULL has stolen 161 bases on 218 attempts (#3 in NCAA) .288 BA, 4.73 era, .982 FP Head coach is Matt Deggs, former asst at Arkansas under Van Horn and aggy (Childress). Succeeded Pierce at SHSU prior to ULL. https://ragincajuns.com/sports/baseball/stats/2023
  22. For the first time since 1999, when the 64-team bracket was created for the national tournament, there won’t be a regional host from Texas. https://www.kxan.com/sports-general/horns-report/texas-longhorns-not-named-regional-hosts-on-the-road-to-start-ncaa-baseball-tournament/

    Tulane (18-40, 164 RPI) defeats East Carolina in AAC Champ Game and steals a bid. A bubble team will miss out. Fair or nah ?
