After a week off due to “Nemo the Blizzard,” the Warriors returned to practice today. The pitchers bumped up to two sets of 20 and didn’t seem to be worse for wear and tear. The test will come when they throw on Saturday. Hopefully there will only be normal stiffness. Zack and I discussed our concern about trying to make up for lost time and balancing that out with not pushing too hard. My philosophy has always been, “lose a game in March to win an important game in May.” So caution will rule at this point in time. The hitters all had several hundred swings, so I don’t have a great concern about where we are offensively. That will change when the hitters step in against the  pitchers and see live pitching in a couple of weeks. The team is exactly 28 days away from landing in Vero Beach. I will be posting information about the annual team dinner, which will be held on Tuesday night, March 5th. This dinner will be for the players and their families. Also in attendance will be members of the College staff and administration, it’s a fun night and marks the wind up of fundraising for this year’s trip.
