March 3, 20241 yr Kinda odd for an invitational tournament schedule to bleed into Monday unless weather plays a factor. Not sure why we can't play Penn State Sunday afternoon.

March 3, 20241 yr Author I did not anticipate the return of Goode would relegate Vivi to the bench. That’s rough

March 3, 20241 yr Hofstra learned how to do that correctly since yesterday. Texas woild still rather take its chances apparently than give up one out.

March 3, 20241 yr Author 2 more games before our first conference series, but we aren’t done with non-conf yet (still play @ LSU, @ FSU and host Texas St and Nicholls) PSU tomorrow UTA Wednesday UH next weekend Edited March 3, 20241 yr by Js1
March 3, 20241 yr I'm noticing a trend where any pitcher with a good changeup seems to shutdown our lineup.

March 3, 20241 yr Author Heading into conference play, my guess would be Fridays - Citlaly Saturday - Kavan (backed up by Czech and Simpson to close it out) Sunday - Mac on a short leash with Citlaly ready to come in
March 3, 20241 yr And down goes Oklahoma and their 71 game winning streak, losing to Louisiana 7-5 this afternoon.

March 4, 20241 yr Penn State (15-1) hasn’t played a strong schedule but they have beaten Arkansas and Kansas. They don’t have stellar pitching but they score a lot of runs to make up for it. Need our bats to be alive this evening

Monday evening softball is nice 😎

Kavan has been better than I had hoped, and has the looks of a legitimate staff ace Atwood has elevated her game to an entirely different level and should be in all conversations for POY this season Stewart has adjusted quickly to collegiate pitching and seems to hit the ball hard every AB Goode is starting to look like the player she was last year and now White has to find a way to get them all in the line up. Mitchell has proven to be a solid portal pick up, but she may be the odd man out by the time this line up is settled Scott's speed is a must in the order, but she makes us worse where ever she plays defensively Henry has been really solid at the top of the order and can run, slap, and hit for power Dayton is back to looking like she did her first season on the Horns, and is a spark plug on offense This roster has so much positional versatility along with speed and power. It must make Coach White feel like he has 35 girls on the roster.
March 4, 20241 yr Author My dream lineup is still 2 Atwood 3 Stewie 4 Goode 5 Mitchell 6 Martinez 7 Henry 8 Dayton 9 Maloney DP Scott But I think we may have to live with Washington at SS for now. Not sure what’s going on with Vivi or if it’s just too many players and not enough room and Mike won’t relegate his Captain to the bench
March 4, 20241 yr Author Texas is also #7 in the first RPI. Shame we lost the Kentucky and NW games due to weather
March 4, 20241 yr Author 1 minute ago, torre said: https://www.ncaa.com/rankings/softball/d1/ncaa-womens-softball-rpi We still play games against: #1 LSU #5 OU (3) #10 OKST (3) #19 Texas State #26 Baylor (3) #30 FSU #34 KU (3) #36 Texas Tech (3) #43 Houston (3) The rest of the Big 12 slate is sub-50: #62 UCF, #69 BYU, #162 Iowa State We lost out on #28 Kentucky. UNC and NW aren't high RPI teams so those weren't huge losses Our RPI is going to be fine just based on having 12 more top-30 matches and 21 more top 50 matches. The Big 12 is strong.
