Don't think so. In interviews this week, team seemed fired up and ready to win. For some reason, our pitching wasn't sharp. We gave up 15 hits, and only struck out 2.

Two Juniors didn’t make the trip to Colorado. Team culture deteriorated at the end of the season. Next years freshman class should help. Next years team will be athletic and extremely young. This will cause some growing pains. Should get better at Catcher ( McFarland never hit over .220) 3rd & SS ( Amader & Robertson ) had close to 30 errors. Hitting was an issue all year. We had 24 home runs and most of our competition had 40-80 home runs. Amber Bishop was the only real power threat. Pitching was great all year with the exception of NISC. 4th ERA in the country. We will be young at pitching as well.
