UT softball 2014
UT's season isn't scheduled to start until February 14th. But the MAC preseason poll has been released, with a prediction of how the conference standings will look at the end of the season.

Let's just say I hope the conference coaches don't know what they're talking about.

I fear they do. Just about every sport in our stable has had some recent success. The ones that use balls with seams really struggle, especially on the distaff side.

Do we have a new head coach yet? Maybe I missed the announcement.

Looks like it's still an interim head coach.

Edit: Just looked at the page I linked to more closely. I guess it's interim head coaches.

UT loses its opener 11-2 to Oregon. Game was cut short by the 8-run/5-inning rule.

UT's coach resigned in the beginning of November. Still no new coach hired. What's up? Does anyone care?

RE: UT softball 2014
I don't think that softball has done much since Cheryl Sprangle left for UVA in 1997. She was here for 14 year and had them competing for a MAC title most of the time. She got them to the College Softball World Series (NCAA Finals) one year and I think that they finished either 5th or 7th in the country. Consistent excellence and the ability to compete at the highest levels depends on having a very special head coach, and this is especially true in the non-revenue sports where there is little financial support-----and such coaches don't come along very often.

AD Pete Liske, who was a total moron, wouldn't give her a $5,000 raise, so she left for Virginia. Had a few good seasons, but eventually got fired. I think she's selling real estate.

UT leads Cal State Northridge 3-1 after 2 innings. Rockets tied it at 1 in the bottom of the 1st and got 2 in the bottom of the 2nd.

Edit: it was 4-1 Rockets, not 3-1.

UT went ahead 7-1 and Cal State Northridge got 3 in the top of the 5th to make it 7-4 going to the bottom of the 5th.

Live stats of the game seems to have stopped working.

It's working now. UT didn't score in the fifth. CS-N didn't score in the top of the sixth.

UT left fielder Jessica Lemieux homered in the bottom of the 6th to make it 8-4 UT going to the 7th.
