Got to disagree about Simon's numbers for this year.  She is up over last year in almost all of her hitting categories.  Her K's are also way down from '22.  Several players aren't having the year that they had in 2022, but Cierra is not one of them.  We got used to Lexi hitting around the .400 mark last year, so lack of production from the #1 and #2 spots is the biggest part of the run production problem.  But you are right Skylar not having the kind of year that she had.  Good to see Peters really coming on as we approach the home stretch.  Sparks' .461 average over the last ten games, raising her average by nearly 100 points is a welcome relief from earlier this season.  Hey, maybe we'll get it all together at the same time heading into the tournament.

Buddy.....I was simply talking about her defense. Last year she was so automatic at shortstop. This year her D, has been not nearly as good. Check out errors the next time you get a chance.....

Agreed. She and several others have been struggling as of late.

Team errors were my concern as well and part of why we finished third.   In 6 crucial losses to WKY, UAB and Charlotte we committed 9 errors.
