February 19, 20232 yr Yeah, Scott is not a great IF. Might as well see if she can play OF. Seems like Mike has really struggled to find a 3B since he’s been here.
February 19, 20232 yr They did that rotation of 2b to ss, ss to 3b, 3b to cf, cf to 2b deal in the third or fourth I think. Then the next inning they swapped c and 1b?
February 19, 20232 yr There’s no excuse for a team of players that can hit well to have crap defense. If you have good enough hand-eye to hit then you can field. It’s about practice. The 10,000 hour rule and all. You don’t do something well without putting in the work. Conversely, if you have the talent, and you put in the work, you get good. We did get good at defense right at the end of the season last year and it’s why we made the final. (We had a lapse in the final but by then the trend was set). How did we get good at the end? Repetition throughout the season is my theory. So what are these girls doing in the off-season?
February 19, 20232 yr Author Goode broke Jefferson’s freshman year record of consecutive games with a hit to start their Texas career. Goode has a hit in every game so far (9) - the record was 8. Jefferson was also in attendance to see that. Goode leads the team with a .567 average
February 19, 20232 yr Author Texas up 3-0, bottom 3rd. Mia Scott 1st inning HR and Texas plated a couple more on Scott RBI and a WP
February 19, 20232 yr Martinez needs to hit 3 hole behind Scott. Those two are the best hitters and swings on the team.
February 19, 20232 yr Author The big winners. 8-0 in 5 Off until the weekend when we welcome VT, ACU and Texas Southern

February 19, 20232 yr Author Looks like Scott was in CF again, Washington slid to the hot corner, Martinez slide to short and Goode played 2B with Brandon at 1B I can live with that, actually

February 20, 20232 yr This has to be one of the youngest teams in the country. The top 3 pitchers are what sophomore, freshman, sophomore? The lineup consists of a bunch of underclassmen. I bet this team is going to be really good by the end of the season.

I bet this team is going to be really good by the end of the season. 1 senior who rarely plays (Gilbert), 7 juniors (6 of the 7 are contributors with the other being Corona), 7 sophomores and 6 freshman. 13 underclassmen and basically 6 juniors who all play reliably Czech is a junior, so no senior pitching
February 20, 20232 yr Red McCombs passed away 😢 Very sad, but very thankful for the man and his generosity.
February 20, 20232 yr Author Texas welcomes the following teams this weekend, as we continue a very long pre-conference homestand: 3-7 ACU 0-6 Texas Southern 6-4 Kansas (won't play them) 7-3 Virginia Tech (top 15 ranking) Long homestand broken up by a single mid-week visit to UTA on March 8. We will then hit the road for Sam Houston and 5 games in Tampa at a tournamnet hosted by USF after we finish that 16-in-17 games homestand. UTA is quality club too, 2-2 in its 4 games against Tech (split), Kentucky (W) and UNT (L)

Are Mary Nutter, Judi Garman, Puerto Vallarta invitation only, rotational, or can teams invite themselves ? Perhaps we will start a series with former asst coach Megan Bartlett and Ariz St. They are 8-2 primarily against weaker competition. She has a good staff in Jimmy Kolaitis and Jeremy Manley (former NZ pitcher like Mike White).
February 22, 20232 yr Author Bella posted on her Instagram that she is fully cleared. The cast is off!

February 24, 20232 yr Looks like our game should start on time as VT is about to run rule ACU. VT Up 11-0 in the 5th inning currently Edited February 24, 20232 yr by perfectchaos007
February 24, 20232 yr Author Czech gets the start - strikes out 2 in a 1-2-3 first Scott still in CF, Goode at 2nd, Martinez at short and Washington at 3rd with Day at 1st Popelka and Maloney the corner OFs. Whitaker DP. Atwood catching Edited February 24, 20232 yr by Js1

February 24, 20232 yr Just now, bschoolprof said: Bella!! Bad news is she is slapping. I don't remember her being a slapper. With her speed, I don't mind it. As long as she doesn't hit the ball right back to the pitcher, she'll beat out most throws from the infield.

February 24, 20232 yr Author Move Scott back to CF lol Well we can’t make it easy. 5-4 Texas no outs. Top 7
