Bender pitched in first game.

I know.

 

[kregman]

I know.

Wasn't trying to be smart. Two separate games so yes she would be eligible in this one.

Wasn’t talking eligibility, but you can’t read my mind.

[kregman]

With lots of youth, and no Rogers when it goes bad it goes bad quick.

 

[OrangeBeachVol]

We play them again at 9:00 in the morning. Hope there will be some revenge on the minds then.

 

[jeebie]

Curran drives in run at least.

Amanda Curran is a very good softball player both with the bat and in the field. I wish the Weeklys would play her much more than what they do. She could help in right field also.

 

[kregman]

UCF looking at their team they are a tough matchup. Hit the ball well and have 3 to 4 pitchers that can get people out. Better bring our A game tomorrow.

Well at this point in the season right is like left was before Holcomb settled in there. Over the first two weekends there were a number of balls that should have been caught that were in the books as hits because no one touched them but were poorly tracked.

 

[volman128]

Our third run-rule loss of the season already. At least Texas and Arizona are WCWS contenders, though.

 

[volfan__18]

Our pitching staff is a big question mark. Not a very strong one as of now.

Rogers back will make a huge difference. Rogers, turner and bender will be the main ones with Milloy taking a few innings here and there.

When we are off, all facets of our game break down. Offense, defense and pitching. It's not just the pitching when we lose, and our defense is our weakest area right now.

Ralph made the statement on the podcast that they were not too concerned with wins and losses until we get to Sec play. He as I thought we were lucky to have a 6-2 record up until today!

 

[SEC FAN 1111]

Our third run-rule loss of the season already. At least Texas and Arizona are WCWS contenders, though.

A very embarrassing loss! UCF is a good team but not a super regional caliber team. UT is flawed defensively. The lack of recruiting and the developing of middle infielders is evident. Who’s hitting fungo at practice this year? I know everyone is waiting for Rogers to come back and save the team but the last thing you want to do is rush her back before she is healthy.

 

[Palspal]

Also made a comment about softball coaches stealing players. Without saying that's what happened with Caylan Arnold I took it as an implication that is what happened.

I didn't hear the interview, but I'm sure that Ralph was talking in general terms across the game now, because that is not what happened with Caylan.

She didn't hear from other coaches until after making it known, I assume via the transfer portal. Then she was contacted by several prominent coaches.
