Just noticed that our star pitcher, Sarah Harness, transferred to Nebraska. That's a real bummer. We still have Madi Eberle.
Don't know a thing about recruits: a freshman from Rushville and a DIII JC transfer pitcher of the year in D3.
Team went 8-0 in Fall ball against 6 JCs, Maryville and SLU.
Jen Sewell is the new coach.
Yikes!!! Who picked UIC to win and they finish 11th in the poll?
UIC coach? LOL
Wow that recruiting class looks great! Picking up a great pitcher (and her twin sister, both all-staters) to go along with Eberle is so important.
2 - 0 after yesterday at Fla. Gulf Coast. Two more games today.

Watched the Dawgettes beat Depaul tonight 2 - 1. Great game - Madi Eberle pitched great - went 7 innings, as did the Depaul pitcher.
Speedy Emma Austin had two of SIU's 3 hits, stole 3rd, scored both Saluki runs.
Freshman Jackie Lis hit a HR -- but a foot foul. She's gonna be a great Saluki like her Hall of Famer aunt. Some good freshman on this team.
Tomorrow we play SIU Jr. - let's kick their ass!
9 - 2!
