Summer and Rawls are coming back.

The infield is set.

So of the 8 seniors, we have 4 definitely back. 2 of the 4 left to announce are not impact players, even though I would like to see all 8 back next year.

So far:

BACK FOR SURE AND IMPACTFUL PLAYERS
Summer Ellyson
Julie Rawls
Alissa Dalton
Kaitlyn Alderink

NOT ANNOUNCED IMPACT PLAYERS
Megan Kliest
Sarah Hudek

NOT ANNOUNCED NON IMPACT PLAYERS
Morgan Gray--GREAT PINCH RUNNER
Alaina Guarino--ALREADY REDSHIRTED ONE YEAR, ROLL/BENCH PLAYER

Any word on any of the baseball seniors or other sports for that matter.

RaginDave, Morgan Gray is a impact player for the Cajuns. Great pinch runner and even better defensive outfielder, maybe the best defensive outfielder we have. She plays a huge role on this team hopefully she returns.

If I remember correctly, Glasco said he'd like to have everything finalized by the end of the semester.

I'm thinking that unless you are on a track to moving on to an advanced specialized degree (medical school, law school, etc.) why would you want to go out into the job market in the next 12 months when you can stay and play?

I would venture to say the girls who haven’t made an announcement yet are waiting to see what the school can offer them in athletic money. Remember, the school doesn’t have to provide them with the same amount of athletic money that they previously received. Any difference would need to be made through academic scholarships, student loans, or money from their parents. I’m sure that plays a factor in deciding whether to return for the additional year or not.

I don't know every family's situation, but in Hudek's case, her father is a former MLB player and I believe she is an only child. Not saying finances still don't come into play, but I don't expect that is her main concern.

[CajunSaint08]

Also, would the incoming freshmen have anything to do with a senior returning? Just throwing this out there, but what if the incoming freshman is a super stud and would get more playing time than the outgoing senior? Just curious? And I hope Morgan Gray comes back also. She was a studette.

Sarah has a twin sister.

Haven Hudek is her twin sister.
