or a base knock with RSIP
Never knew the “swac west” was the whole SWAC.
Just saying they’re scrappy…
We are so inconsistent at the plate and should not take anyone lightly…including TSU…so many of you thought going in that this would be a glorified UH batting practice, but it did not happen. The good news is that we are young and growing as a team…
Wouldn’t be surprised to see Bond start next week against HBU or McNeese
