Lamar Softball

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.

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.

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?

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

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.

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

Lamar plays Utah Valley on May 11 at 10 am in a single elimination game in the WAC tournament.

The winner moves to the double elimination portion against Abilene Christian at 4 pm May 11.

    • I ve seen this done in several other countries.  And in those countries it happens very lil because of the severity of the consequences.   I saw a video of other world leaders ask “why does America allow such destructiveness” when all the civil unrest was happening because a criminal/criminals were killed  by not following commands.     we have a great system in place but it’s been compromised and we could still learn from other countries.
    • I am out of VOTES, but I will give a BIG AMEN!!!!
    • You start opening fire and drop about 10 or 12 of these protesting morons it will break up pretty quick.    This ties in with killing the chicken killing dog.
    • This is an easy one. We have let grifter unqualified coaches infiltrate our children and convince them that they will be D1 athletes if they only focus on a single sport. We've got kids, with single digit ages, playing their sport year-round to "maximize exposure" despite the fact that most college coaches on the recruiting trail will value a multisport athlete. This translates to the school year and ends up with kids being football, basketball, baseball only kids. Track is pretty much the only one left that keeps kids playing other sports and that's primarily because football coaches demand their football kids be track athletes. I literally talked to a man last night, who just moved to Texas from Oklahoma who was telling me his kid played on two different football teams during the season last year. One for his school, one for his select league. During the week the kid was a RB for his school, and on the weekends, he was a QB for his select team. This would equal 7 days a week of full contact football for a 6th grader......6th grader. Once that ends, rolls straight into 7 on 7 for the spring and back to football in the summer. All this for a kid, who seems to be a good athlete, but probably has a ceiling of D2 at best, if he doesn't burn out before that. Parents are silly and think they can develop their kids into being the next Quinn Ewers, but they completely miss the biggest factor in creating that type of athlete.....genetics. Genetics are undefeated. Always have been, always will be. Play sports because you love to compete then compete in everything you do. Quit giving bullsheet rings to "state champions" every single weekend all over the US and get back to valuing team championships won at the community level to build the continuity when they are young. This is the only way to reestablish the pride once felt by every kid in every town across Texas when they got to put on a uniform with their school colors. Otherwise, we can kiss the magic of high school sports goodbye. 
    • We are proud for sure! It was a great game!
