We have been so spoiled for the last two years with Evan Skoug.
The Frogs’ catcher has started 160 of 161 possible games over his first two seasons in Fort Worth, rarely missing even a single inning. He was so good and so consistent that his backup, junior Zach Plunkett, left for Arkansas this offseason, knowing he wasn’t going to get Skoug off the field.
From the time he stepped foot on campus he was leader; despite being just a true freshman, he earned the respect of an incredibly veteran pitching staff in 2015, working with future pros Preston Morrison, Alex Young, Trey Teakell, and Riley Ferrell to lead the Frogs to a then second-consecutive World Series.
