The Cincinnati Bearcats are lucky to have the majority of their infield intact from last year, with the exception of catcher Woody Wallace. Their returning talent fortunes carry over into the outfield as well as two 50-game starters return as well as the majority of the depth from a year ago.
Junior center fielder Treg Haberkorn is the anchor of the outfield, both in the batter’s box and in the field. He ranked third on the team in batting average (.264) and put up respectable numbers in slugging (.396) and on-base percentage (.367). Among his 14 extra base hits, four were triples, which tied for the team lead with first baseman Ryan Noda, who coincidentally adds depth to the outfield as well.
