UConn v. University of Washington @ the Conway SC Regional on 6/3 @ 6:00 on ESPN3

CF got to that easily. What was he thinking
 
Seniors can't make that mistake. It's what I preach all year. This is why we go home early, Penders teams just don't seem to learn.
 
Need baserunners. Overly aggressive approach at the plate hurts too.

Season over. Still what a season it was for UConn, despite what happened in this game.

Agreed. Strong season from the fellas. You need some bounces to go your way in this format. We didn't get them, and we didn't have our A game tonight...

Great season. A little disappointing to lose to a Washington team with 1 pitcher that can throw over 90 mph, but this team overcame a lot of adversity to get to a regional final.

We should be strong next year, but replacing Stefanski and Poulin will be difficult (I think our weekend starters will be okay). With that said, if we want to win a regional, we need to clean up the mental aspect of our game.
 
That sucks. It's one thing to get pounded by a superior team, and another thing to beat yourself with physical and mental errors. Leaves a real bad taste in your mouth.

Still, overall a fantastic season and one I enjoyed very much. Best of luck to the seniors and junior draftees. Is it too early to look at next season? Losing Cate, Feldstein, Stefanski, Susi, Poulin, and the others will hurt. But I still think there's a ton of talent coming back and a major infusion coming in. I'd expect us to be good again in 2019.

Penders' teams do learn. The idiotic baserunning is exactly what he teaches.
 
4 errors, ran into 5 outs. We could have had healthy Cate on 5 days rest and a full bullpen and would have lost this game. Just makes it that much worse for the bats to put up 6 and actually have really gutsy performances by what was left of the pitching staff.

Think about it. Tim Cate goes missing for most of the season with his injury, UConn has assorted other pitching injuries, including season enders for Polonia and Rossomando, and they just missed hosting a regional. Then they fight like crazy through the losers bracket in this regional. I find it to be quite the accomplishment.

Unfortunately I seem to say that every year. I know the last 3 were unearned, wonder overall how many of the 9 were unearned?

Don't think we'll be nearly as good next year
 
What UConn needs most is pitching depth. Perhaps Colby Dunlop showed he will be part of the mix for next season.

Really depends on the whether the big recruits make it to campus and can make an impact. Also who knows what jucos we’ll get.

I disagree, losing some of these guys will hurt but I have a ton of confidence in the guys coming back. I expect a similar regular season and now we have a bunch of guys who know what to expect come postseason time
