Lamar Softball

[spidersal]

The Lamar softball team is now 2-8. It appears they are going to be weak again this season. They played a few teams close, however Washington is the only good team they have played thus far. The pitching appears to be weak and struggle scoring runs, which leads me to believe hitting is weak also. I quesadillas Hooks can’t recruit quality players. Hopefully they will improve

Lamar softball is now 4-13 and 0-2 in conference 

How long are they going to keep Hooks.  The only year she had success was her 1st year with Bruder’s recruits.

Since then they have hardly sniffed a win.

I think last season and thus far this season she is around 12-60.  I would say that this is pretty bad.

Now 4-15 and probably 4-17 after tomorrow 

If # 50 is the best pitcher they have it will be another long losing season

Softball wins a game against Houston Baptist 9-1 in five innings. Team record now 6-20

[Bobcat1]

6-20?!? What the heck happened to Lamar Softball?!

[spidersal]

They hired a coach that can’t recruit and must have a bad pitching coach.  They just have not competed. They are 14-63 over the last two years.

Lamar softball team was swept this weekend by SFA. Combined run totals for the three games SFA 26 Lamar 1.  Overall record for Lamar is now 4-14 in conference and 9-27 overall. Record over past two seasons is 17-70

Please Lamar, the softball team has hit rock bottom and can’t get any worse really. It’s time to get some good quality coaches… this is just flat out embarrassing at this point. 

[spidersal]

You have got that right, super hitter for Texas, but struggles recruiting and coaching. The new pitching coach they hired must not be a very good pitching coach, because they do not have 1 pitcher that competes. It is difficult to distinguish which Lamar sport is worse between football, mens basketball, and softball.

McNeese 6 Lamar 2 first of three for Friday and Saturday.

Lamar now 9-28 on the season.

[snakehead26]

McNeese finishes series sweep of Lamar by winning doubleheader on Saturday.

Lamar record now 9-30

This week's games Texas A&M then three game conference series with Tarleton State.

 

[spidersal]

Maybe they can somehow get 2 more wins before their season ends

[KF89]

Too much softball talent in the SETX\GREATER HOUSTON area for Lamar to have a record this bad. Is this coaching staff not recruiting the best players or the best players not interested in Lamar anymore?

[spidersal]

Great question I know Bruder had them playing well her last couple of years before she got the axe 

[spidersal]

I don’t think I have ever seen a Lamar softball team this poor the past 2 seasons. Could possibly be the worst D1 program in the nation theses past 2 seasons. Looks like an 11-37 season which would make them 19-80 the past 2 years. They may get lucky and finish 20-79. There is obviously not much talent alongside poor coaching and a total lack of recruiting

In the final conference series we host 12-38 Sam Houston. Sam swept us at their place and is 31-69 over the last two seasons.

Also, from what I keep seeing all the teams eligible for bid will make the WAC tournament because there are only 8 teams eligible for an NCAA bid. Am I reading that correctly?

[spidersal]

If all teams make the tournament Lamar will be 2 and done. I see them splitting with TSU and losing 3 to SHS

Well you got your split with TSU winning first game 1-0 and losing the second 2-1.  Next up the weekend series with Sam.

Well still accurate on your prediction. Lamar loses a doubleheader Friday to Sam by scores of 2-1 and then 8-0 in five innings.  Now sitting at 79 losses over the last two seasons.

[spidersal]

It will be 80 after tomorrow and if all WAC teams go to tournament it will be 19-82

[spidersal]

11-37 and 5-19 that is atrocious 19-80 the past 2 seasons. The only season Hooks had a winning record in her 1st year at Lamar was because she had the majority of Bruder’s recruits still there. Since then, Lamar has been horrible  Lamar hired an AD that only cared about tennis and knew nothing by about hiring quality coaches
