This week’s post will focus solely on the upcoming Cal Softball and Cal Lacrosse seasons. Nonetheless, there are plenty of events this weekend on campus across various sports.
Go support your Cal Bears this weekend:
Cal Softball - 2019 prospect has high floor but also low ceiling
2018 Record: 35-21, 7-16 in Pac-12
Postseason: Yes, 1-2 in the Georgia Regional with both losses to Northwestern
Key Returnees: Zoe Conley and Kalamani Dung (starting pitching tandem), Lindsay Rood (top hitter), Mikayla Coelho (top home run hitter)
Key Losses: Jazmyn Jackson and Kolbie Pettis (graduation), Bradie Fillmore (transferred to Boise State after 2 seasons as Cal starter)
It’s hard to complain about a program that has consistently make it to the NCAA postseason as well as beat rival Stanford (even if it is helped by the Stanford program still being in shambles after being rocked by a scandal few years ago), but it would certainly be great for Cal Softball to take a step toward being back as a perennial national title contender.
