That does not sound good. Hanah is a good, not great pitcher, but this team definitely needs her. She basically is the only veteran pitcher they have. Going with Elish, Netz and Fontes for the remainder of the season will be a tough learning experience.

Honestly this team had zero business not adding a transfer pitcher in the offseason. Year one is going to be a very bump ride for Lowe.

Have to wonder if the situation of her being our #1 and being run ruled twice. Hope she is OK. It’s supposed to be fun

Our goose is pretty much cooked without her in the bullpen. Feel sorry for Lowe. We haven't had that dominant pitched in a few years.

Covid flare-up?

This is going to be a trying year with the pitching staff depleted.

I thought Bowen came back?

Posted: **Sat Mar 12, 2022 9:32 am**

Did she? Hadn't heard that. Still we have one pitcher with experience if she is back.

She's back. Doesn't matter, pitching is meh.

Posted: **Mon Mar 14, 2022 3:45 pm**

Thanks for letting me know she is back. She at least provides hope against half the teams in the league.

Got swept last weekend at UCLA with a combined score of 15-0.

Getting drilled by ASU at home right now 8-2, top of the 6th.

Ugh

Pitching is terrible. I wonder if Taryne will be blamed? It's a young team but why can't they get a stud pitcher?

Eventually someone has to get blamed, all the pitchers on our roster were fairly highly ranked (top 25ish) players.

Posted: **Sat Mar 26, 2022 7:23 pm**

Haven't been following Softball, but I'm sick of seeing this team getting blown out every day. Having it done by ASU is even worse.

Posted: **Sat Mar 26, 2022 7:25 pm**

Looking like a really bad hire at this point.

Posted: **Sat Mar 26, 2022 7:59 pm**

Candrea probably had a big say in Lowe being his replacement, but because this is such an elite program, they could of hired a top-name coach.
Lowe is the coach and she needs everyone's support, but she is going to have to make big decisions after this season.

More like Candrea had all the say. Lowe is definitely in for some heavy decisions this offseason, because it's one thing to get killed by UCLA in LA, it's another thing to get destroyed by ASU at home. This team may literally not make the tournament.

Caitlin needs to get it together.

Recruit! Recruit! Recruit!

Posted: **Sun Mar 27, 2022 1:35 pm**

I mean, yeah we don't have any aces, but what happened to the bats? 2 runs in the last 5 games, 4 shutouts.

The talent can't have fallen that far off after one season. Sounds like this staff is in over their heads.

Posted: **Sun Mar 27, 2022 3:42 pm**

Former Cat Marissa Schuld just pitched a perfect game as asu beats the Cats 8-0.

Posted: **Sun Mar 27, 2022 3:48 pm**

JFC this is turning into a dumpster fire.

Posted: **Sun Mar 27, 2022 3:52 pm**

Pathetic!

Posted: **Sun Mar 27, 2022 4:24 pm**

They’re gonna get swept and shutout by UW next week too.

Posted: **Sun Mar 27, 2022 4:37 pm**

So I should give up on Softball this year and only pay attention to Baseball.

Sigh...

West coast bias.

I caught a few innings last night.
Our pitching is dreadful. And the fielding is nothing to write home about.

But they make up for it with anemic offense.

Lowe is going to have to use the transfer portal after this season.

Posted: **Sat Apr 02, 2022 9:59 am**

At least Candrea had the dignity to retire and didn’t fake a back injury like RatFace.

She had every chance to before this season, but chose not to.

Posted: **Sat Apr 02, 2022 11:33 am**

Isn’t this team very young? Besides the pitching which we knew would be suspect, are we pinning the poor play on Lowe? I mean we had to know there would be a transition year or two

I don't think people are blaming Lowe. She did inherit a young team, but the pitching needs to improve. Yesterday they scored 7 runs and most times that would be enough. It will be interesting what changes Lowe might do after this season. She needs to bring in her players.

Finally, I wonder if Candrea saw this year's team was going to struggle and that played a part in him retiring after last season?

I hate to break it to you, but these are her players. She's been the primary recruiter for this program for some time now. There are good pieces on this team and plenty that aren't performing were highly rated as well, including the pitchers. Lowe has a lot of decisions to make this offseason that's for sure to fix this, because this ain't gonna cut it.

Oh goody - the ladies are already getting their asses kicked 4-0 in the first innning on The Deuce for the whole country to see.

I reverse jinxed a win.

Posted: **Thu Apr 14, 2022 9:47 pm**

That was a very fun game to watch. I was prepared for us to be embarrassed on national TV, but it was nice to see us come out with a win.

Posted: **Sat Apr 16, 2022 2:26 pm**

Cats win 12-4 and take 2 of 3 from Oregon. The offense is starting to click. Palacios is definitely out of her slump.

Posted: **Sun Apr 24, 2022 1:41 pm**

Cats take 2 0f 3 from Utah on the road. Skaggs hit two homers, including a grand slam, as the Cats won game three 6-5. They have now won two series in a row. Finally, it's great to see Meono back!
