Well, we shall see how this all plays, but the Chinese Zodiac says this is The Year of the Pig.....!
Hope so. Softball team is off to Denver, in the final eight of D2 softball national championships. I saw them play in Houston early on, and noted then they had the possibility of not only being good, but could be a great team..., but, common sense said keep the trap shut, one never knows...! But they have evolved not only with great pitching, but excellent bats, great base running, and the ability to climb out of a hole time after time. Coaches Nicholson and Lewis are doing an excellent job. and, about 80% or so of the team are frosh, sophs, with a sprinkling of juniors thrown in, so going to be very competitive next couple of years...
As to NCAA Track and Field, looks, on paper, like an absolute shootout between the Hogs, the Rams and the Lions, with Lincoln right there with them. Buffs a factor, but not the depth IMO, we shall see. But, again, I recall couple of year back when Hogs were in running and our 26 1/2 foot long-jumper fouled on six straight attempts, and so there went another championship! (Do I recall that properly...?).
Anyway, hope the Year of the Pig extends on to FB and BB!
