Made the game tonight.

Really not sure about our pitching if Bielo and Lockhart are two of the weekend starters. Hopefully Aquilar can come back. Do not know about his status and would like to see a freshman or two step up.

Villareal looked good as well as Roedhl.

Hyland is going to be a stud with the bat at SS. He hit one opposite field earlier and did not get all of it yet it carried to the warning track in left center. Does not have the range fielding wise like we have had in the past, but his hitting looks like it will offset.

Great win to start the season. Northwestern State is not an easy pushover. It will be two good games the rest of the weekend.
