SB Sweep: LA VS CAL

[barisaxman]

To those who were wondering why pitch Summern both games—I heard on several
shows on ESPN1420 that it was decided by coach earlier that she’d pitch BOTH. He’s
already thinking about seeding come NCAA’s, and he didn’t want one of these RPI games
to get away from us!

When I see crap like that, I start thinking goose and gander. I mean, what's then stopping us from slapping UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA AT BERKELEY on our page? Or, if/when the Tiggers return to town, putting LAST on the scoreboard? Turnabout is fair play, no?

Since we're talking about "petty" here—listening to Topham yesterday and he said he was on the
LSU website and saw that when they showed both softball polls, they changed what WAS "Louisiana"in BOTH to "ULL"....he said we were the ONLY school that they changed what the actual press release had them listed as....Called them childish and petty and said that was a perfect example as to why the hate continues here!

Them and LA Tech will always hold out. Not even worth worrying about.

Their own Ben McDonald has said on national TV that we should be called Louisiana, and people who previously always praised him trashed him.

I saw a Cal article where they referred to UCLA as "their little sister UC Los Angeles".... the name hate stretches all the way to the West Coast it seems.

They may be doing some "remodeling" to their field this year. Cal doesn't play a home game until March 23rd. That's one long road trip.

Actually they will totally rebuild their field/stadium after this year. Thirty million budget for softball and beach volleyball buildouts due to Title IX issues.

It appears Cal has chosen to compete in numerous large tournaments this year and then start off PAC play at Utah so thus the long road swing.

Ben McDonald is doing the play by play Friday for the Texas game. Not color. Play by play. It will be his maiden voyage.

Coach Glasco discussed his goals for the team and where they need to be going into conference on the athletic department podcast. He said by the end of the Oklahoma weekend, they'd need to be at 4 losses or less in his opinion to have a shot of hosting a super (top 8). He mentioned how this team needs to be peaking at the start of the season, not in May like most teams do in order to hit that goal.

He is an excellent color guy. Will be interesting to see how he transitions to PBP. Assuming it will be on Longhorn Network?
