It's 33 days until first pitch at Hennon Stadium against Washington State.
While we're waiting, let's get to know this year's team and meet the sophomores.

2012 (Freshman): Appeared in two games as a true freshman, totaling two thirds of an inning pitched ... Finished with an overall ERA of 13.50 as a rookie in limited time on the hill ... Made his collegiate debut at Winthrop (February 21) allowing one run on a home run, throwing six pitches ... Faced two batters in relief at East Tennessee State (April 25), issuing a pair of walks ... WCU won both games in which he saw action; Summer League: Pitched for the 6-4-3 Cougars out of Atlanta, Ga.
