Nice response to start. Showing toughness.

Bottom 1st, Auburn with a 1 out solo homer. 6-1 UConn. A double followed by a 2 run homer makes it 6-3 UConn with 1 out. Cooke comes out of the game. Van Emon takes the mound.

Have to wonder if Cooke will remain in the weekend starting rotation. Chris Jones was speculating on that before the game started if Cooke didn't do well in the game today. Chris Jones is now speculating that this is an opportunity for Van Emon to earn a spot in the weekend starting rotation.

Cooke getting hit hard. Where did Freshman year Cooke go?

Game should do wonders for Van Emon's psyche.

No unfortunately not, was planning on making the trip but tested positive for strep yesterday. Also just heard CJ says the series at UGA was cancelled for next year. Bummer
