    Man we really need to find some power bats. That is what is missing this year compared to last years team. Soto and Tankersly were bombers, more Tankersly than Soto but Soto was very clutch.

    Hopefully some of these signee's can come in and continue the Cajun tradition of dropping bombs like Tiffany Clark, Alana Addison, Danyelle Gomez and Holly Tankersly.

    Bridges has 13 HR's right now; not too shabby

    That isn't to bad but the girls i mentioned also hit for a very high average. IMO we need one or two more power bats. Ogeron is coming around and has been smashing the ball as of late. We need her to continue to hit the way she has been hitting for the postseason.

    A couple of the players coming in are what you would consider power hitters. Of course, that's in high school. Orgeron has been hitting the ball well lately, like 7 homers in last 12 games. Verde's got HR power, as does Lana Bowers and Runyan.

    As few homers as it seems the team hits this year, they're still in the top 50 in the nation. With the way the slappers are getting on, it's going to be scary when the power does start to click.

    I'm almost certain that you have checked the softball stats available in Ragin Cajuns.com. Rather interesting, and even more so when you consider that Orgeron is coming into her own, so to speak.

    Orgeron is starting to crush the ball and it couldn't be at a better time IMO. I have not looked up any stats on the girls we have coming in. IMO when we get into the regionals we will need our power hitters to hit for higher averages than they are currently in order to be seccessful.

    I think our pitching will keep us in any game against any opponent, but our hitting is what will win those close games for us. The way we have been playing as of late I like our chances in a regional if we are away from Florida.

    Agreed!! In the case of Orgeron, its odd how an athlete is performing so-so, and then turns into a "machine".

    I believe that Orgeron has found her swing. I seem to recall that a little less than 2-3 weeks past her batting average was around .250, and as of 26 April she is hitting an even .300. Also, she has 29 RBI s and 7 Hrs. If my memory serves me correctly three of the HRs came in the series against Troy.

    Other Lady Cajuns doing well, average wise, are Verde- .349, 6 HRs, 50 RBIs; Bridges- .294, 13 HRs, 45RBIs; and Runyon- .265, 5 HRs, 39 RBIs.

    So, we have a little "snap" in our bats. It appears that they are beginning to play very well as of late, which is a good time with the Conference tourney on the horizon.
    Too bad that Brignac is sidelined. There was mention of her being ready for the tournament, buuuttt that is a wish, I believe. If she were 100% we could really turn some heads.

    Oh, well! We'll take what we have, and I predict do very well....hope I didn't put the gris-gris on them.

    Orgeron is the last of the "Fab Five Class" to play, she red-shirted last season. Brignac,Bridges,Smith,Bourgeois and Orgeron all won state championships their senior year. Orgeron has had the most problems adjusting to Michael's hitting program, so she is starting to come in to her own. It's not odd at all that she struggled early against quality pitching and but she is starting to see the light now. She showed good power her senior year and played catcher at Mt. Carmel.
