GO EAGLES !!!

Och was outstanding. He picked off a runner at first in the 9th. He struck out 6 in 3 1/3 innings. He struck out the final batter.

Come on Eagles !!!

EAGLES!!!

When I looked at cusa.tv, the video feed says it is a free event. Here is the link:

Southern Miss Football recently finished Spring Practice with new HC Will Hall. Not only did the coaches have to come in and install a new system. They also had to evaluate both sides of the ball and see where they stood in talent and where they needed to focus on in recruiting.

A few things of note that he said. Will have more out tomorrow.

1. USM is looking to sign a RB this offseason. The Eagles don't have much size, so in my opinion, he is looking for a bulldozer that can get short yardage and wear defenses down.

2. Arvin Fletcher has been great at Center. Coach Hall believes he will play at the next level at Center.

3. Lowe will be the starter headed into the Summer. He separated himself in Spring and after watching film he is the #1 now.

4. Latham has gained 20 lbs and Coach Hall said he is best LB he has coached against the last 2 seasons. Nice endorsement there.

I will have much more tomorrow. We discussed linebackers, DB's, recruiting and more.

Here we go!!! Eagles need this game after dropping first 2 at USA.!!!

This came from our of left field. He was played so much better the 2nd half of the season.

Is he back??? It was obvious on the last batter tonight, there was way too much control from the coach. And, SA got a free fast ball on the first pitch all night. I despise that stuff. That kind of thing will kill your hitting, AS WELL AS THE ATTITUDE OF THE TEAM.

LET THEM HIT !!!

Mandatory attendance.

Southern Miss reported to have a game at TCU.

Notes
* Southern Miss registered its first-ever four-game sweep of a Conference USA opponent, outscoring the Blazers 34-9 and never trailed in the series. It was the first time Southern Miss had beaten an opponent in at least four-straight games since the Golden Eagles defeated Gannon six times from April 1-4, 1985.

* The Golden Eagles have opened the month of April with seven-straight victories, having won 17 of their last 21 games dating back to a 6-0 victory at Jacksonville State (March 6). The triumph also marked coach Scott Berry’s 400th career win at Southern Miss.

* Southern Miss has reached 20 or more victories in its first 30 games for the sixth time under Berry, with the other times coming in 2011, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019. The program reached the NCAA Tournament in all of the previous years since 2010 when Berry took over the program.

* The starting pitching for the Golden Eagles over the weekend went 4-0 and achieving four quality starts – outings six or more innings with three or fewer earned runs. The pitching staff went 27 innings over four games (31 total frames) and allowed seven runs (five earned) on 21 hits with two walks and 17 strikeouts, finishing with a 1.67 ERA.

* Gabe Montenegro increased his hitting streak to 14 games and is now hitting .491 over that span (28x57) with six doubles, a triple, a home run and nine RBI.

On this week's episode of To The Top Talk- we recap the weekend sweep of UAB, discuss the Golden Eagles success on the mound and more! #SMTTT

Coach Berry said that today....

Heard from a source today that we should look for 3-5 scholarships to be available this off-season. Attrition will be a key factor as the coaches look to see who will stay, who will go, and who will not be asked to return. Depending on what they have coming back, I look for the coaches to hit the transfer portal hard this summer.

Then probably Johnny Wholestaff the rest of the night in relief.

It seems it is only a bad laceration. So could be a week maybe longer. No one knows for sure yet.
