Correct. And to Trapasso's credit, there is always a challenging out of conference schedule.

Sounds about right. But if UHawaii can find production in the middle of the hitting lineup and pitchers find their grove in the
spring, it could make for some interesting games at home. UHawaii will be better on the road. no more trips to Nevada
or La Tech. But the California teams are good too. I hope the corners, esp. first base hits (with power), and the catching
is solid. I think UHawaii could be a dark horse in the conference this year. Go get 'um Coach Trap. Good Luck and
Go Bows. See ya' all at the Les (and bring one blanket Feb. 15 going be cold).
