Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I am not going to post the link since it is behind a paywall, but an article today in the Register-Guard in Eugene was quite informative about the upcoming Softball team. While they do not return as many starters as in the past, Coach Lombardi referred to being the deepest in talent and depth than prior years. She spoke of the incoming freshmen, but also some transfers we will see. She felt that while the experience was not there yet, there is more overall talent than before. Jaz Sievers (now Williams) is back at shortstop after taking a year off to have a child and get married. She is playing sharp, along with Ariel Carlson, who has come out of the hitting slump from last year. Apparently she was killing the ball in fall scrimmages. The pitching staff is SEVEN deep, and I do not ever recall that before! And they referred to a strong bond built within the team...so it should all be fun to watch! Go here for the roster and here for the schedule. Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
30Duck No. 2 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Seven deep in pitchers? Incredible, often teams have very successful seasons with two or three at the most. Pitching rules are mysterious in softball, and up to a point somewhere, pitchers can be taken out and return. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
