The more we think about it, the more it seems that we are “wasting” our time thinking about past glories. The glory days of UH Baseball had been the Derek Tatsuno, Gerald Ako, Chuck Crim days of the mid 1970s to the mid 1980s. We had failed in our only attempt at a College Baseball Title, and it was painful, as we lost two to Arizona in 1980 to lose the title. Had we won that only and best shot at the title, we could put that on our resume and help in our recruitment. We are in a very strong conference baseball wise, with Cal State Fullerton having many trips to the College World Series and having to win it all. Trapasso may be a great head coach, however we have not been winning consistently. Compare to the Wahine Volleyball team, which has won four National Champinnships, the last one in 1987. Dave Shoji has been a fixture for 41 years and will return for his 42nd year. Although we play in a mid-major conference, we have been a consistent top 10 program for just about all of Dave Shoji’s years here. What can we say? Is it about the time for a change at Head Baseball Coach? We have a great AD in David Matlin. Maybe it’s time to take advantage of Matlin’s skills and talents in hiring great coaches.
