Bear Down Wildcats

The Caitlin Lowe era has begun. Honestly, I do not know what to expect for this year, but if the players take after their new coach, we should be fine.

Keep a sharp eye on this, her little sister is a freshman for us this year and obviously we have a glaring hole at ACE. This would be huge.

That would be huge if she came here. I did read some fans think she could be transferring to Samford. Her really good friend MK Tedder transferred there this summer. We should know soon since school began this week.

She’s from my area, and she was a monster in high school. Just dominant in every phase of the game.

No Miranda Elish for us.

Curious how our infield ends up. Lots of options to fill spots now.

Hailey Dolcini has entered the transfer portal. It would be great if she became a Wildcat.

She could be the difference between a WCWS or not.

She committed to Texas.

Tried to go to game 2 Friday night but the mercy rule ended the game right as we walked in. First time in Hillenbrand, stadium is so nice

That’s awesome.

Well deserved.

What a lovely surprise.

Season begins today!

I believe their run came in the top of the first.

Cats win game two, 15-0 over Southern Utah. Today, they play #2 Alabama.

Wanna give a shoutout to Coach Lowe's lineup creativity. She had Devyn Netz pitch and bat last night, while having back up catcher, Bailey Thompson, catch, but not in the batting lineup. That's fun. I can't remember the last time Candrea did something like that.

Arizona vs Alabama live now!!!

A 1-0 win over New Mexico? This team has a long way to go.

New Mexico gave Alabama a better game than the Cats did. The Lobos might not be bad. Also, this UofA team lost a lot from last year. Yesterday's starting line-up were either sophomores or freshmen, except for Bowen, who pitched.
There will be times when the bats are cold, but I believe they will be much improved as the season progresses.

Agreed, team will get better as the season goes on.

Not a good look for Caitlin's team the first time out of the gate against a big time program. Caitlin is a tough, tough cookie though and I'm sure she'll shape these girls up. Toughness counts and Arizona teams will be tough.

This doesn't look like Jennie at all.

I hope George’s time in Tucson convinces him that USC and UCLA are not the only programs worth promoting and protecting in the conference he runs.

That does not sound good. Hanah is a good, not great pitcher, but this team definitely needs her. She basically is the only veteran pitcher they have. Going with Elish, Netz and Fontes for the remainder of the season will be a tough learning experience.
