The season is effectively over. We started out with a great deal of promise but now it appears the wheels have all come off.
Very disappointing to say the least.

Would seem rather unprofessional to me … Carter pitched rather (4 inning/ 1 er) well in relief v HP midweek of course they are not a CAA team. He is also clocked 93 mph on his fastballs.; he went 2 innings against Delaware and gave up one hit and no runs.

Our 21-21/5-12 in CAA play wrap up what could have been a key series against the 15-27/7-10 Hofstra Pride.
Let’s see if our Aggies play with purpose & pride to conclude the season. We won’t make the conference tournament (again) after getting off to that great start. It’s been another season of “exposure” for us, meaning our glaring weakness was exposed & exploited. Coach Hall is a dynamic recruiter, & he’ll scour & hit the JuCo’s & portal for pitching & outfielders.
UPDATE: Our lineup is the same, but he’s tinkered with the batting order. Negishi is leading off, Ash is batting cleanup, & Dalton & Logan are still AWOL.
Good luck, Aggies

UPDATE
Bottom of the 4th inning:
Hofstra 5 Aggies 0
Hofstra batter just cleared the bases with a 3RBI double off of an 85mph fastball.
Our guy on the hill has good run on his fastball & nice bite on his deuce & slider, but when he's behind in the count or needs a strike, he tends to groove a flat fastball in there and BAM, 3RBI double that missed being a grand slam by 6 inches.

UMES transfer Alex McCoy delivered a 2RBI single, giving Hofstra a 7-0 lead. Hofstra batted around in the inning off of Diego Barrett, yet Canyon Brown saved us from what could have been a blood-letting inning by throwing McCoy out trying to steal 2nd.
Top of the 5th coming up.

UPDATE:
Top of the 5th, & Grad transfer Tatsunori Negishi crushed a 2 run home run to right center to close the gap!
Headed into the bottom of the 5th, it's
Hofstra 7 Aggies 3
Negishi now leads the squad with 6 homers on the season.

Seems like there is more going on within this program than just relief pitchers who can't throw in the 90s.
This was a talented team at the beginning of the year. Can't believe how rapidly they fell out of contention.

Can't believe how rapidly they fell out of contention. The only problem with this team is the lack of depth at the pitching position from the outside looking in. In saying that it can have a Trickle down effect and cause the batters to press more when in the batting Box on offense which could result in less hits. I've never been a person that buys in to the start of the season. For me I pay attention to the middle and the end of the season before I comment on how great a team is. We may not make the tournament but we can win some of the remaining games against teams going into the tournament. Even though it is only wishful thinking on my part. The good thing for me is we have the talent in most of the positions on this team..i.e as long as we can keep that other Talent. If we retain the talent that we have, then the coaches can concentrate on our weakest links which is pitching depth.
