Arizona baseball: Nathan Bannister will use Hawaii experience to prep for Lafayette

Some similar climates and playing conditions in Hawaii and Louisiana apparently

It's been a couple weeks since he pitched on a Friday, but make no mistake about it, Nathan Bannister is still the anchor starting pitcher for the Arizona Wildcats rotation.

No Wildcats have had any reason to experience playing in a place like Louisiana before this weekend. But having been to Hawaii this past weekend will at least offer some parallels for Arizona.

"It was muggy, raining off and on and playing on turf. That's a good setup for us going to Lafayette," Bannister explained.
