So now we know two guys who are on the roster. |

So I'd guess HC has submitted their roster to the Patriot League. Still no updates on the website.

First pitch of the season against Purdue is in about two weeks -- do we know if the team has scrimmaged against any other schools?
Who's our insider this season?

I'd be surprised if there's any preseason scrimmages- where would they be? inside the Luth ? (where there's not nearly enough room)
the team has fall ball, winter workouts in the Luth and then take the field in Texas - it's always been that way - a very tall order for our players

Yeah, my guess is the team will likely be doing live at-bats in the cages at Luth to simulate an environment as game-like as possible.

Feels like beating a dead horse at this point, but I have to agree that while the idea of an eternally grass Fitton is romantic and nice in theory, lack of consistent access to a turf baseball field is a detriment to the team's ability to put their best foot forward out of the gate. |

Yeah, just checked the horse's vitals, he's dead. No use continuing to beat him. He's not going anywhere. (Other than the glue factory)

All scrimmages have to be intersquad. |

2 weeks to opening day. Holy Cross is the only Patriot League team that doesn't have an updated roster on their website.

Supply chain issues on the royal purple apparel seemed to have caused the team to be without team gear two weeks away from opening day. No roster. No gear. Should be an interesting year. |

You are never happy with anything. I don't think It is going to be that bad. Pick an over under win total I will wager the over. |

If you have access to specifics, what sort of gear is the team left unequipped with? I'd hope nothing dire. At least the most important things--uniforms--are used for years before being retired. |

Perfect Game preview of the team. I guess they didn’t see the updated roster haha.
Holy Cross: Head Coach Ed Kahovec enters his fourth season at the helm of the Crusaders and returns nearly his entire pitching staff from the 2022 squad that finished 4th in the conference. Third baseman Nick Wang returns for his sophomore season after receiving Patriot League Rookie of the Year honors as the top freshman in the conference. Wang finished with a .369-3-21 stat line and a .409 batting average during conference play. The Crusaders also return a pair of 2022 Second Team All-Patriot League members in senior right-handed pitcher Luke Fox and sophomore designated hitter/right-handed pitcher Sean Scanlon. Fox posted a 3-1 record and two saves out of the bullpen with a 2.63 ERA in 16 relief appearances. Scanlon finished with a .297 batting average (.310 in conference) and made four starts on the mound with 12 appearances as a freshman. The Crusaders were extremely young in the infield a year ago with freshmen Brendan Jones and Connor Peek, along with sophomore Sam Kirkpatrick all returning after seeing significant playing time as starters. Holy Cross will feature a roster with limited turnover from 2022 and will have a year of Patriot League experience to build on going into the 2023 season

These people don't have a clue and didn't take the time to ask the school about the roster - both Wang (BC) and Kirkpatrick (Belmont) have not been seen on campus since May
