Women went from 9 wins to 27 in Bolden year two.
Baseball went from 11 wins to 36(hopefully more) in Smith year 3.
Men go from 10 to ? in SP year two.

Women's Basketball, was not as BIG a surprise as showed improvement last year over the year prior to Bolden. Anyone who watched them could tell they were on the up swing. The Baseball team, had some real key seniors step to the plate and work and get better and had a great turn around.

I'd have to say baseball, primarily because Bolden has won before elsewhere and Smith had no prior experience as a head coach.

Baseball. Most thought baseball would still be in the bottom three teams in the MAC. I think improvement was expected from the women's basketball team (though of course not to the degree they did improve).

I think this is pretty accurate. WBB was at least showing signs of trending upward coming in, and I think a lot were expecting baseball to continue to flirt with rock bottom.

It's a great question, both are awesome. Both out-shined Football, Men's basketball and even volleyball. Who would've thought that going into the school year?

I'd say baseball because basketball can turn around quicker with a couple key players. The baseball turnaround has been a deep and extensive turnaround.
