Softball has had some very rough seasons of late and have a new coach this year, Jen Lepicki. well, the season started today in n.c. and we picked up 2 victories, over hampton 7-4 and host school gardner webb 4-2.
maybe, it's time for this program to turn things around.

Softball is a pitchers' game We had 3 strong pitchers in these 4 games: Held, Sloane, Watson 2 sophs and a junior 16 players on the roster seems small number

our d.1 sports program continues to 'take it on the chin' (when will we next win a contest?) glanced at live stats for the game and it's already 6-0 fiu after 2 innings. we've committed 4 errors so far. there is not one program on campus that does not require serious attention.

I believe the official diagnosis for this is "Small sample size". You can't make a judgement based on 2 innings.

Well, HC lost 14-0 in today's first game (FIU). Well, that's not a great game for HC. It was FIU's 22nd game of the season vs. the 6th for the HC team.

this competition is even tougher (for our women) than the baseball team is facing this week. next up is florida gulf coast (the hosts) and all we can hope for is to avoid the '5 inning run-rule' provision which was applied in our 14-0 loss. it's a good rule because so many games are one-sided in h.s. and college softball. we have a new coach and won only 8 games all of last season, so this will be a building year for this program.

seems this team does not have pitching. have now lost 12 straight incl 0-9 on the florida swing. best pitcher graduated last spring and the new coach has a huge job trying to bring this downtrodden program up to d.1 standards.

After starting with 2 wins, the softball team is now on a 12 game losing streak. Without a solid pitcher, things may not get much better this year.
