Prospects
David Seifert – March 27, 2023

There’s a new No. 1. And there’s a new member of the Hundy Club. LSU teammates Paul Skenes and Chase Shores brought some big boy velo to the Tigers’ series against Arkansas this past weekend. Skenes touched 102 with his fourth pitch of the game, while sitting 100-101 throughout the first inning. Shores relieved Skenes in the eighth and brought 100 octane fuel.

Additionally, five others joined the #HeatSheet during Week Six. In that same SEC series, Razorback freshman Gage Wood touched a 96, while up in Happy Valley, Penn State junior righthander Travis Luensmann hurled several 96s to the[…]

Fall Report
Mike Rooney – November 30, 2023

The BYU athletic department is in year one of its new home in the Big 12. The Cougars already have one conference title as proof of concept. The BYU women’s cross-country team captured the conference championship this fall. The women’s soccer program nearly did the same, finishing in second place by just two points.

BYU takes great pride in athletics. So even though the Big 12 feels like a sizable leap in class (from the WCC), it would be unwise to assume that the collective Cougs will be overmatched here. That said, the challenge ahead for the major sports of[…]

Fall Report
Walter Villa – November 30, 2023

CORAL GABLES, Fla. — For 21 years as the Miami Hurricanes’ pitching coach, J.D. Arteaga made a right turn to reach his office.

Now he’s turning left.

That’s because Arteaga in June became just the fifth Hurricanes head coach over the past 60 years.

“Relief,” Arteaga said when asked to describe his emotions after he was named to replace Gino DiMare, who resigned unexpectedly for unspecified personal reasons.
