DISCLAIMER: I'm a Wildcat softball fan.
I heard his contract expired but he apparently signed an extension. Will he stay long enough to play in one more NCAA Championship?
Pitching for the 2015 season is questionable. Nancy Bowling and Siera Philips are juniors (Siera is a lefty that threw BP in the past and made several fall season appearances). Michelle Floyd is a soph and Trish Parks is a freshman. Offense looks solid with short game, power, and speed present. This will be the last season for the 1, 3, and 4 batting order slots: Hallie Wilson (1B), Kellie Fox (SS), and Chelsea Goodacre (C). Lauren Young (3B) is a junior, and Mo Mercado (2B) and Katiyana Mauga (RF/3B) are sophs with power. Lauren started catching this past fall and looks good.
Pitching for 2016 should be quite good. Bowling and Philips will be seniors, Floyd a junior, Danielle O'Toole from UCSD will be a RS junior, Parks a soph, and Taylor McQuillin and Tamara Statman will be freshmen. Offense will have to fill some serious gaps, but Mercado and Mauga, and freshman Alyssa Palomino will provide power.
I dunno if it'll be enough to claim the championship. Competition is tough across the country.
