UConn @ Texas State Bobcats (Fri. 3/8 @ 7:30p ET, Sat. 3/9 @ 3:30 ET & Sun. 3/10 @ 1p ET)

9th inning, Dandeneau in to pitch, Moriarty comes in to play 3B, Chiovitti to play RF.

From everything we're hearing, Wang has a lot to lean but has a very high cieling. Would not at all be surprised to see him as a starter next year.

1-2-3 inning for Dandeneau, UConn gets the 8-4 win!

 

[HawkHusky]

Awesome start to the series!

Perfect on Fridays (4-0)...

What happened to baseballguy and ATLDYKA? Miss them

Very good performance today; let's clamp down and finish them tomorrow.

Me too. I know @ATLDYKA has been lurking, but not really posting.

Wang and Wurster have both passed their auditions.

Yes they have. Now if Simeone and Dunlop can show some continued improvement that would be a big step forward as well.

Good start to the series (again). Hopefully with Feole tomorrow we can keep the momentum for once this year

Next season Feole and Kersten will be gone from weekend starting jobs, while Dandeneau and Wallace will be gone from the backend of the bullpen. No matter where Wang ends up, there is plenty potential work for him.

Sounded like UConn had a very good defensive game in the field tonight. A nice change from recent games.

We also have three star freshman recruits coming in for next year's class, and we all know Penders is not afraid to throw a talented frosh into the fire!

I love the production we are starting to get from Wang. He will be a key part of our future.

• CJ Dandeneau has pitched in all six of UConn's victories this season.
• Thad Phillips has recorded a hit in all five of his starts this season.

Hopefully today's the day we turn around our Saturdays.

A post game interview with no big noise competition! Coach Penders says Jimmy Wang is going to be a good one.

Just wondering, who are the three star freshmen recruits for next season that you are referring to? And yes, certainly true that Penders is always willing to go with a talented freshman player.

Thanks for checking. I'm always here following UConn baseball. Been trying to keep a low profile. Just got tired of the personal attacks by a certain someone.
I am actually heading up to Greenville next Saturday to catch the DoubleHeader against the Sparties. Looking forward to it.

Sounds like it was great game sat night.

Let’s win a Saturday game, now!

Don't be frightened...feel free to contribute!

Zeigler, Wozny, and that New Hampshire beast...I am stoked for all 3 of them. I think they are coming next year, I could be a year off though.

Yeah, the 3 you list are very good but are presently HS juniors.
Sam Faveri is a HS senior to keep our eyes on.
Too bad Burrows went pro, for UConn.

I was wondering if that was the trio you were referring to. They are high school juniors now, so they will be in Storrs for the 2021 spring season. Still, they got I believe 8 pitching recruits so far for next season, just not sure who is the cream of the crop in that group. Three lefty pitchers in that group (Max Nielsen, Reggie Crawford, and Garrett Coe), UConn usually has some good luck with the southpaws they get into the program.

I know RPI is wonky this early on, but it's real nice seeing UConn at #5.

Have fun next Saturday in Greenville.
