Keep it up!

Hopefully most fans are excited about this team and program. There is a foundation here that focuses on developing players and keeping the team competitive.

This opening weekend there were upsets of Top15 teams by unranked foes ex: Oregon to SE Louisiana, Clemson to Auburn, Georgia to Belmont, Arkansas to Virginia. Liberty (#22) is now 0-5! Anything can happen, I'm proud of the way this group is starting off.

There is a really tough stretch ahead of us the next couple of weekends, looking forward to seeing how the team responds!

Arizona beat Oklahoma

I am really impressed with our Okie State transfers - Micaela and Tallen. They are both at or close to the top in the hitting categories in the stats (sortable):

Micaela can flat out hit the ball hard. Really hard. Tallen just goes after it. In the field, at the plate and on the bases. At the end of the season will we say, "darn, why can't we have them for another year or two ?!"

I know it is early and Tech is the only major program we have played but the numbers for the pitchers look really good so far. Team ERA of .090. 47 SO and only 2 BB. That's an insane SO/BB ratio. These numbers will be entirely different at the end of non-conference and the end of the season but they are a great early sign.

Coach Ford - I still want to see Taylor B. !!!!!!
