SOFTBALL Chemistry, consistency propells softball to best season in recent history By Junior Guererro @juniorg45

After securing their first Mountain West title in 14 years, the Rams pulled off a gritty vic- tory in Utah and claimed the greatest season record in Col- orado State University history. This however, didn’t happen over night. The softball team put in a lot of hard work and determination to be in the position they are today. When you put in the work in the offseason and throughout the regular season, you’re prepared for a long season and the big moments that come with it. They knew this season was different from previous years because of the chemistry that was built between one another. Once they started to click, the Rams were ready to make some noise.

“We have great support at Colorado State for women’s athletics. We’ve seen that with women’s volleyball and women’s basketball and the success that they’ve had. We’ve felt a lot of that support over the years, but it’s so exciting for us to be able to put that great product on the field that have our fans are super engaged.” Danni Klein and Haley Donaldson celebrate after scoring during the game against Fresno State.

CLUB SPORTS After successful season, CSU baseball heads to regionals By Tyler Meguire @TMeguire

After finishing the regular season with an outstanding conference record (13-2) and going 22-10 overall, the Rams won the Mid-America-West conference. The Rams did not just win the conference, they beat the second-place team, Wyoming, by five games. Now, the team is on their way to Kearney, Nebraska for the Mid-America Regionals. Relief pitcher Daniel Terao ranks third in the National Club Baseball Association in saves (3) and has high expectations for his team. “Winning conference is always an expectation, but I’m really excited for the postsea- son this year,” Terao said. “Last year, it was so disappointing losing in regionals, especially with the team and talent we had. This year, I’m really excited and confident about regionals.” Outfielder Brandon DeLay added on to the excitement of going to regionals. “We are super excited to head back to the Regional Tour- nament in Kearney,” DeLay said. Colorado State University is the number-one seed heading into the tournament. The Rams will play the number-four seed, Iowa State. ISU finished second in the Mid-America-North conference (12-3). Overall, ISU finished 15-7 and scored 167 runs.
