Chomps

As our main page indicates, our gator mascot has a name, Chomps. It beat out hundreds of finalists, including 2nd place, "Renegator" and 3rd place, "Navi."

The team was supposed to practice today, but as you can tell if you look out your window, that's not happenin'. Hopefully the field is in good shape tomorrow, as it will host Navs practice in the AM followed by three high school tournament games at 3, 5:30, and 8:00.

Practice Update - June 3

Earlier this evening the team held its second practice of the season. With just a few days before the season opener, the coaching staff is busy evaluating the team and figuring out their ideal starting lineup.

• Kyle Geason, who redshirted at Minnesota this past season, was the only player taking grounders at third base.
• Kent Graham has been getting all the reps at first base, as seems to have the job locked down coming off his D-III championship at Trinity.
• Mike Provencher starred at shortstop this season at Mesa State (CO), but has been working with the outfielders so far.
