_ well my take on things are this.....if hawkins can be himself and put up good numbers like he did in the past, and we can get griffen and harst going....thats three pretty good power guys. I really liked Benzel last year....somewhat streaky while he was trying to figure it out, but he was a freshman. I am still not sold on the SS position offensively or defensively. I dont know much about the jr college guys but i heard one has some pop and could be a middle of the lineup type of hitter I also like Bowman last year.....lots of speed and a big arm good frame kid that will hit in time. In my opinion the key to this years team is gonna be if Hatfield get this year and can play. If so, I think and hope that he can be that leader we lacked last year. He's in about his 8th yr so hopefully can provide leadership. _

Look for Hawkins to provide some leadership this year too. I don't think that I'll ever forget last year in between the double header in the ASU series when Hawkins went off and drew the proverbial line in the sand. If he sets that kind of tone from the get go this season, I think guys will take notice.

I did not hear about that "line in the sand." Yes hopefully he will provide some leadership also.
