Things went about as expected this weekend, losses to UNCW (14-10) & Virginia (8-4) and a ridiculous 27-9 win against Navy. Navy walked 16 (!!) and gave up 20 hits and committed 4 errors. Frankly they are lucky it wasn't 30+. Amazingly our #3 hitter Colin Kasperbauer managed to go 0 for 5 (with 3 walks) in a game in which his team scored 27 runs.

Seems like we always have plenty of offense and the competitiveness comes down to if we can find 3-4 reliable starters and opening weekend indicated maybe more of the same. Junior Luke Olson (transfer in from CC) was good, 5 innings 1 BB 1 run. Sophomore Zach Weber held his own against #19 Virginia, 4 innings 5 runs 0 BB. Brenden Roder got lit up for 9 runs in 2 innings.

Looks like the weather should be OK enough for the series against a theoretically comparable Western Kentucky team.
