Perfect Game Incoming Freshmen Ranked through 400

Our incoming recruiting class (to play this year) was #3 on both PG and BA.

Anyone pick up a copy?

So McKinney is starting next Sunday. Guess that makes Murphy the midweek guy

We’ll need a legit midweek guy with our tough games.

Probable rotation for the weekend.

Knight
Campbell
McKinney

We play Arizona Wednesday in San Diego before three more games Fri-Sun at the Tony Gwynn Classic so Kacey Murphy is likely for that role.

It looks like some wet weather in the forecast for this weekend. Hope this isn't a sign of how the season will go.

Opening weekend info:
Forecast

Friday Cloudy 37 for the high NNE wind 14 mph
Saturday Am rain/ice high 47 60% precipitation wind W 8mph
Sunday Partly cloudy high 56 wind S 4mph

Could be a rough weekend to get all the games in if the Meteorologists are right.

Scott Heather was named the head coach of the Bucknell baseball program on June 18, 2012, succeeding the retiring Gene Depew. Heather spent the previous eight years as an assistant coach at Bucknell, helping the Bison to a pair of Patriot League Tournament titles and NCAA appearances.
Scott Heather (born September 14, 1975) is an American college baseball coach, currently serving as head coach of the Bucknell Bison baseball program. He was named to that position prior to the 2013 season.[1][2][3]

Heather began his playing career at Arizona Western, and completed his eligibility at Arkansas. He played on season with the independent Duluth–Superior Dukes and served as a student assistant at Arkansas in 1999. For the next five seasons, he worked as an assistant coach at Arkansas–Fort Smith, then a junior college. In 2005, Heather joined the staff at Bucknell, working with pitchers. He was elevated to the head coaching position after longtime head coach Gene Depew retired.[1][3] After claiming a share of the conference regular season title and the top seed in the 2014 Patriot League Baseball Tournament, Heather was named Patriot League Coach of the Year in 2014.

• Bucknell, which went 21-28, 10-10 last season, will be led by senior right-hander Connor Van Hoose, a unanimous first-team All-Patriot League selection last season. He went 6-6 as Bucknell’s No. 1 starter, leading the league with a 2.28 ERA and 97 strikeouts. His strikeouts, which came in just 83 innings, were the second-most in Bucknell history. He pitched four complete games, including a three-hitter that beat regular-season champ Navy. That win occurred in the semifinals of the Patriot League Tournament, helping Bucknell advance to the championship series. After Van Hoosen, however, graduation created some major voids, and the supporting cast has a lot to prove. Junior right-hander Jeff Gottesman is the next best pitcher. The offense will be led by center fielder and leadoff batter Chuckie Scales, shortstop, three-hole hitter and team captain Luke Johnson and third baseman/cleanup hitter Keifer Rawlings. First baseman Miles Moore and DH Tyler Wincig had productive fall camps. Freshmen to watch are right-hander Brenden Tuttle and infielder Dominic Toso.

Should be a great pitching match up between Knight and Van Hoose.
