Another nice non conference win vs Tulane and a pretty decent record. It’s sad that they can’t win conference games, which will do their season in

You have a good point, however basketball committees are not favorable to the SLC. They simply do not think that the teams that are not the winners are worthy of an invitation

Lamar had a good record this season 20-13. It was a better season than the last several years, however they were not good enough to get invited to any post season tournament IMO Hopefully they will improve next year The only SLC to get invited a tournament is the winner because it is a weak conference

Lamar seems to have a decent team and has some gutty performers, but I guess they can’t find enough quality pitchers. Looks like the reliever in the 8th today couldn’t get it done I can’t figure out how they can beat teams that are pretty good in non conference, but when they get into conference play, they struggle They have a good season record as of today, however a not to sweet 3-5 conference record. If they keep going down this path, they are likely to be a middle of the road conference team. Hopefully they will get it going in a positive direction

I feel for the Lamar softball team. They just don’t compete very well under Hooks leadership Appears as of today that they will finish in the middle to the bottom in conference play

That is a good point, however Lamar is probably not going to do that INO Lamar’s athletic staff as well as the president of Lamar are happy with mediocre results

Not going to happen, so they will continue struggling in the recruiting aspect. What the city of Beaumont with the help of Lamar is to revitalize the South Park area close to the college. Probably won’t happen and as Trump would say what a dumb statement by AggiesAreWe. I enjoy most of your post. however that was inappropriate I was stating why they struggle recruiting and those reasons are Hugh part of it. You think that is why they struggle in every athletics program !!!

Point well taken. Simply stating recruiting at Lamar, a commuter college with very little athletic support is very tough. The college is ugly, in a poor part of town and refineries right next to the gym makes recruiting tough. I am sure Brooks is doing the best he can do That being said, their season is over unless they are invited to a tournament of the Rinky Dinks

You are correct it is about the players and Brooks struggles recruiting but I have to admit that he should be SLC coach of the year this year. My post is very accurate on being in an extremely weak conference A rating of 20 in conferences is pretty poor(30 last year was awful)

Thank you for acknowledging that they are in a weak conference!

McNeese has a decent team, however they will be 1 and done in the tournament due to an extremely weak conference

Sorry I meant 20-13 after today’s loss

Yes a much better season under Brooks this year 20-14 after today’s loss is much better than the past few years and a 2nd place finish in conference is a plus Maybe they can continue to improve next season!

If Lamar does what they usually do, they will lose their 1st game. Hopefully better this year!

Well they are capable of playing well. 10-5. Just struggling in conference right now. Hopefully things will get better
