OT: Softball

1) He was talking about NEXT YEAR already. lmao
2) It was to Chip, who is one of the few folks with an appropriate sense of humor around here. Im sure he will rally from whatever psychiatric damage my post may have subjected him to.
3) I been showing them respect the entire season.
4) They were still 1-3 vs Commerce this season.

You just can't buy class. 7070707

Easy there Betty, pull them panties out of your crack. Nobody trying to take your trophy away. You right, nobody is in the same class as the mighty Buffs, except possibly UT Tyler. Im sure you will win more than one against Commerce next year. In fact, Im sure it will be a run-rule sweep for those mighty Buffs in ALL the games against Commerce. Maybe Commerce shouldnt even bother showing up.

My post was said in complete smart ass absurdity mode. A proper smirking emoji followed by a smile would have conveyed that. Got you! haha!

Seriously Jake??? Give the Lady Buffs their respect!! They earned it!! TWICE.

Remember how you were when the Lions won a natty?

No one doubts that Tyler, OCU, and Commerce are GREAT teams. We will have to play our best to beat them next year.

[JakeTAMUC]

I guess that makes Commerce the National Champs. Congratulations are in order!

Yall were 1-3 against Commerce also.

We lose those 3 seniors, McBroom (catcher), Vessels (2nd base), Cordell (ss). All seniors or grads. We return 14 freshmen or redshirt freshmen and 3 sophomores. No juniors. Unless Mook has recruited specific replacements for c, 2nd, and ss that he believes can step in next season and play right away, this might be the perfect time to get portal seniors to come in for 1 year.

Still, Lady Buffs have a GREAT young team returning. Plus a slew of incoming freshmen.

But, can we beat UT-Tyler next year?

I was thinking about this yesterday. Hoping current WT softball players do not use the portal to transfer to D1 schools like the men's basketball team did.

All good questions, but too early for me. You can bet Mook has a good plan though.

This is a nice write up by Kale Steed. https://www.presspasssports.com/post...tch-grand-slam

I hadn't really thought about it but all 3 seniors were on base when Valforte hit the grand slam. It's something they can all tell their grandkids about.

Man, I'll tell ya, my hands were clammy as hell after Biola hit that homer. I was certain we'd lose 1-0. Me of little faith.

Villaforte did something I've said for years. A batter is likely to get a good first pitch to hit at the plate. Be ready to hit the first pitch and be aggressive. Too damn many hitters take that first pitch.

What an improbable season. WOW!!!!!!

Yeah, against Paige Austin you can't afford to give up anything. However you could tell Austin was feeling the pressure today, which is understandable.

I'm so glad Lair recovered quickly and definitely benefited from her time off. She was amazing.

I dont know how Mook turned a team that was 20-10 in LSC play into National Champions, but he had better win Coach of the Year and get a huge raise. I think it might be hard to keep him around very many years because D1 teams will want him.

Biola was the only nonconference opponent to beat us all year!

[BuffaloChip]

Like in 2014, all scoring was by home runs. Luckily ours was a grand slam by Valforte against the fabulous pitcher Paige Austin. Lair was brilliant.

WT wins it all 4-1.

Mook is a magician! Give that guy a huge raise!
