ASU softball continues to break in freshmen the tough way--in competition with super talented and experienced teams. The Apps dropped a 5-0 game to soon-to-be-conference mate Coastal Carolina late this afternoon. They also lost to Cleveland State 11-2 earlier in the day. Now at 0-7 on the young season, our ladies play Towson (9:30 AM) and Seton Hall (11:45 AM) tomorrow.

Can we skip Spring sports and just get to the Fall season?

They've started between three and six true freshmen every game and all the pinch-runners and hitters are true freshmen.

Softball was the biggest jump in competition from the SoCon to Sun Belt. The SBC was the 6th-best conference last season by RPI and that was with App and GaSo weighing down the rest. Only one percentage point behind the Big Ten, which had National runner-up Michigan.

This is a multi-year building project and that was known when Savage was hired.
