UH’s NCAA baseball tournament hopes rest on tough final stretch

“It’s going to be a four- or five-bid league, no question,” Whitting said.

What makes the Cougars dangerous is the 1-2 weekend rotation of lefthanders Trey Cumbie and Aaron Fletcher and an offensive that hasn’t reached its potential over an extended stretch. UH is led by third baseman Jared Triolo (.367), second baseman Connor Hollis (.304) and first baseman Joe Davis (.299).

“I feel like we haven’t really played good offensively for an extended stretch at any point — and I know it’s coming,” Whitting said.
