Lions lose another conference game 7-2 vs lipscomb, that’s 0-10 in conference play this year and 6-22 overall. Just a tidbit, UNA’s conference record the last 2 seasons is 5-35, and 18-63 overall!!! Will this ship ever be fixed? 😡 Gotta have time to recruit.

Offense and defense are better this year....should have 6 or 7 more wins already. That part of the team seems to be able to compete in the ASUN...at least middle/low middle of pack. Pitching has been a different story.

We need to hit the Transfer Portal and Juco hard this year for pitchers. If you look up stats for all Div. 1, UNA is dead last in Walks per 9 innings with 8.67 per game. That is the difference in probably 7-8 more wins.

Definitely need to recruit like a D1 program. Last night the Lions played Vandy and the 1st 3 pitchers used were all local kids from Florence. I would expect to see that with NW shoals, but not an ASUN team. Being from Delaware, I'm guessing the new coach can cast a wider net and bring in good players from more than a 30 mile radius. He'll just need time to transform the roster to what he wants.

Swept Bellarmine!! I know that they have a losing record as well, but it's nice to get a conference series sweep.

I take back what I said earlier in this thread, the offense isn't any better this year.

I take back what I said earlier in this thread, the offense isn't any better this year. Lineup is still way too top heavy. If our 1-4 hitters don't produce, forget about it.

14 Freshmen on the team. Speaks volumes. Coach P has a lot of recruiting to do in the offseason.

Well at least our losses are closer games. Getting beat by double digits is hard, single digits you can build upon. We land 7-9 impact players this off-season and this team will be there next year.

So Murray is 4th in the Missouri Valley...
I know we lost both games to them, but, my point is, I think the ASUN is probably one of the best non P5 baseball conferences there is.
We have a program to build, no doubt about it, it's gonna be tough. But I like what I've seen out of the freshmen, and I think we can get some recruits. Can't wait to see what's to come for this program.

Other than the 1st baseman, everyone on this team should be on the chopping block if they can find transfers/juco kids. Even the freshmen. Or, stay the course and suffer 3-4 more years of sub 15 win seasons. I'd hoped with a new staff they would throw more strikes....NOPE and hit be ball better....NOPE.

We got a lot of freshmen that have done some good... it's a work in progress.
