Matt from A700

Opportunity to beat up on one of the worst teams in the country in Memphis (5-34, 1-17). Really can't let them steal one like UTSA did a few weeks ago. This could help solidify a top two seed (top two seeds would only need to win two games in the conference tournament to win the title) if Tulsa takes 2 of 3 from Charlotte this weekend.

I didn't think she could get off to a worse start than last Friday when she walked four batters in 1+ innings of work, but alas, four walks without recording an out last night. She's been going crazy with those pitches sailing over batters' heads.

Can she shoot 3's?

I've noticed Christensen has been out of the lineup more too.

Sold out game, but I've still got a few tickets I can spare if anyone can make it tomorrow at 6. Need more green than maroon!!

1950's golf team better watch out...

Slow start in Game 2 but we end up winning that one 10-0 as well. This is an even better night than I was hoping for. Hope this gives a bid of confidence for the ladies heading into the Texas A&M game tomorrow. I HAVE EXTRA TICKETS TOMORROW IF ANYONE NEEDS SOME!! Combined stats today for our team: Medford: 2-5, 2B Cobb: 2-4, 2B, 2 RBI Simon: 4-8, 2B, 3B, HR, 6 RBI Smith: 1-7, RBI, BB Gamble: 2-6, 2 HR, 4 RBI, 2 BB Grahmann: 0-1 Rainey: 4-6, 2 2B Truitt: 0-0, BB Ibarra: 2-3, 2 2B Donohoe: 0-1, RBI, BB Moffitt: 0-3, BB Nicholson: 1-5 Conley: 1-3, HR, 3 RBI, 2 BB Epperson: 1-1, 2 RBI Christensen: 1-2, 2B, 3 RBI

He played the 4 at PVAMU which is what I'm hoping he would slide into here. He looks a little bigger than Aaron but he wouldn't replace all of Aaron's shooting. He only went 7-20 from 3-point land this season. Maybe Hodge would make him work on being able to stretch the floor more in the postseason and give him more of a green light in Denton.

Doesn't say a date, but we are in his Top 4. Miles led the SWAC this year with 9.3 RPG to go along with 11.9 PPG at Prairie View A&M. He also averaged an assist a game. We are the best program in his Top 4. The most interesting thing: he ALSO went to the same school Scott and Massie attended. He's been retweeting a lot of their stuff in the recent past. I would love if that meant he'll land here, but I've noticed that doesn't happen often. These players who played together will be each other's biggest fans but seem to want to go on their own paths.

Lineup for first game of our rescheduled doubleheader tonight:

Glad to say @CMJ can rest easy. All the people who bugged the sh!t out of him for spelling Rubin's name wrong now have a new name they can get wrong: Massie instead of Massey.

It's getting dire around here, let us clown.

UNT website says 450 seating capacity.

How will SMU explain us being better at them than horse things if they're the Mustangs? Although... I guess they've got a lot more "green" than us.

I think that was the plan against UTA until we fell behind 4-1. Gamble didn't start that game but came in when we finally started to rally. Hopefully we go all starters in one of the games. An 8-0 or 10-1 win in <7 innings would feel really nice. We are losing a lot of talent this offseason and I don't know who we're going to rely on for power hitting. In the least offensive way possible, we've got a bunch of twigs compared to the stronger, D-I looking athletes I saw this weekend from FAU.

I have never been either but heard a lot of complaints about it being on the same weekend last year, too.

She would say... Start your engines!!

The game starts at 6 p.m. Wednesday if anybody is near Denton and could make it. They were $15 each. I could use a couple but will give up all nine and stand in right field if that means more people rooting on the Green Wednesday. I wanted to keep them out of the hands of Aggie fans. I know this doesn't belong in this forum but wanted to maximize visibility to help benefit the softball ladies.

Will be interesting to see who starts against Texas A&M on Wednesday. Those other five games are against two teams who are a combined 11-72 on the season. Wags by far had the best weekend of anyone on our pitching staff. But she was also the pitcher of (losing) record against A&M in College Station earlier in the season.

BIG win as Wagoner goes the distance and dominates FAU again. Gamble ended a homer drought with a clutch three-run shot in the sixth inning to increase our lead to 4-0 going into the seventh. We won, 4-1, and finish the weekend just one game behind FAU for first place in the conference. But with Charlotte sweeping UTSA this weekend, we're now in a three-way tie for second place with them and Tulsa. We should hold the tiebreaker though as we're 3-0 against the tied teams. We play three at Memphis (4-33, 1-17), the worst team in the conference next weekend. FAU plays three at home against UTSA, the second worst. Meanwhile, Tulsa and Charlotte will get to canabalize each other this weekend. Charlotte will be a tough out for us like they were last year. Our last three games of the season will be at the 49ers. Also, after sweeping us and getting to play three (sweeping them as well), UAB is in the thick of things, battling back from a 5-7 conference record to 11-7. Seems like our bats are coming around, even if the homers aren't there. 10 hits today, and 3 from Medford. We've got two games at a bad TAMU Commerce team that can hopefully get the bats going even more before our Wednesday game

Skylar gets roughed up for six runs as the Mean Green lose Game 2, 6-4. Mikayla Smith and Rylie Nicholson had two-run homers. Would have liked to had the second and third FAU runs back. They took a 3-0 lead instead of 1-0 after a near-double play scored a runner from second. Then the runner safe at first advanced twice on two pass balls then scored on a single. Ironically, we wear black on Alumni Day where around 20 former Mean Green softball players were honored before the game. For some reason we won't wear the green jerseys this series.

Need to get Gamble going. I don't know what's wrong with her this season. Still only four homers on the year. My first night game too. Love the green lights we added. Slowly but surely they're making upgrades to The Lace. Still would like to see a new covered grandstand longer by one section in both directions and chairbacks behind home plate. Also, the aisle needs to be relocated *behind* the seats.

Mean Green snap a four-game losing streak to beat FAU in Game 1, 4-2. Wagoner came in and completely dominated. Tatum Sparks hit a go-ahead homer to dead center in the bottom of the 4th and we scored an insurance run in the 6th on a throwing error trying to catch a runner stealing 2nd scored the runner from 3rd.

An hour and 5 minutes to get through three innings. 2-2 tie.

Short outing for Childers in Game 1. Four walks in 1+ innings of work. Tied at 1 after FAU scored on a wild pitch and we scored on a sac fly in foul territory by Mikayla.
