Great way to start the season!
Down 8-3 early in game 2, not looking good. Tech had better figure out something quick to stop giving up so many runs. Trying to beat people 10-8 all the time is going to lead to a difficult year. I know the season is just beginning but let’s get this on track before it gets completely out of control.
Another big comeback to get the win 15-11. This is a good series win to start the year.
Hope we have some pitching left for Tuesday.
We were down 8-1 today but won 15-11.
Good old Memorial Gym
Predicted to finish 2nd in the Southland this season behind SHSU. They made the tournament in 2016 and 2017. Last season they were the 2nd seed in the SLC tournament and were upset by NSU and Nichols. That killed their RPI and any hope for an at-large bid.
Southeastern Louisiana Lions – Preseason Ranking: 2 – 2018 Record: 37-22 (21-9 SLC)
Southeastern is coming off a third-straight second-place finish in the regular season. The Lions are tied for the conference lead for preseason all-conference selections with three, including the return of senior second baseman Cody Grosse and senior pitchers Carlisle Koestler and Corey Gaconi, a two-time all-conference selection. Gaconi went 7-1 as a member of the Lions’ 2018 rotation and issued just 1.8 walks per nine innings.
First Game: vs. Louisiana Tech, Feb. 15, 7 p.m.
I always heard that pitching was supposed to be ahead of hitting early in the season. If that's true, looks like we are in a world of hurt.
