Hilltoppers look for improvement after late-season failures in 2018

The WKU baseball team is set to start its 100th season against Northern Kentucky this Friday, and its focus for this season is to take another step in improving.

“Last year we played very well, we struggled down the stretch,” head coach John Pawlowski said. “I felt like we made some strides last year. We’ve talked to the group that we have back this year about what we need to do as a team, as a program, to take that next step.”

Earlier this offseason, sophomore outfielder Luke Brown announced he was leaving the program and transferring to a different school, adding to the list of multiple key losses to the Hilltoppers roster in the offseason.
