We’re extremely fast and we have power in the order and guys that can drive runners home,” he said. On the other side of the ball, Nelson remarked, “Once again you have a bunch of competitors. When a couple of guys get on (base) it doesn’t faze them. They keep executing.” He later joked, “They play catch very well.” That execution continued on Saturday, as the Bruins took two more from WNCC, 9-2 and 4-3. In game one, Manning drove in 3 more, and Kyle Bilbrey went 2-4 with one RBI. The second game of the day and the final one of the weekend went down to the wire, but SLCC pulled out the victory in extra innings. Derrick Whitney led off the 8th inning with a single and Manning brought him home to seal the deal. As if he foresaw Saturday’s result, Nelson said, “That might be the thing I’m most proud about this group. When we need a clutch pitch we make it and when we need a clutch hit we get it.” After the four games, the Bruins moved their overall record to 31-3, but Nelson insists that it’s only going to get better. “We have to continue to strive to get better. This group is not a group to be satisfied with anything. We are not playing our best baseball yet, which is exciting...We’ll get better so its going to be fun to see how good they can get,” he said. A pretty scary thought for opponents of a team that is already considered the best in the country. SOFTBALL: Ranked 5th in the nation, the Lady Bruins softball squad reminded fans that they are pretty good, too - taking care of business against WNCC last weekend in a 4-game sweep. In game one on Friday, ace Ariel Zimmerman fanned 12 in a complete game shutout as SLCC won 5-0. Krystin Jachim hit a two-run dinger to anchor the offense and Brooke Budge added two hits in the win. Game two was a case of “different game, same result” as Salt Lake produced another shutout, 8-0. Kylee Colvin was great on the mound, while Madi White knocked in three runs. Kylee Brinkerhoff took a pitch deep, and Savannah Webster had one RBI. WNCC finally scored on Saturday, but the Lady Bruins took two more, 8-2 and 4-2. In game one, Zimmerman pitched another gem, striking out 11. White and Webster each belted two-run shots to inject life into the scoreboard. SLCC finished the series with a combined effort on the mound from Colvin and Dezlee Roberts. Colvin delivered three innings of shutout ball, while Shay Wallace and DJ Richardson had three hits apiece. After the weekend sweep, the Lady Bruins have a 38-6 overall record.

Simplicity and philanthropy are good Patrick Cassell Guest Columnist

When you read the reviews of technological gadgets you are likely to see a deluge of acronyms, abbreviations and trademarks. You will witness things like dual core, quad core, i3, i5, i7, MHz, GHz, MB, GB, GSM, CDMA, HSPA+, LTE and an assortment of other tech industry alphabet soup. The purpose of this column is to demystify the jargon and make technology approachable and understandable to normal people. The people who invent new technologies sometimes forget that they have been immersed in their community for years. There is a need to make technology more user-friendly. On more than one occasion Apple Chief Executive Office (CEO) Steve Jobs has spoken about his companies philosophy. During a recent Apple Special Event, Jobs gave this COME ASK WHERE YOUR explanation, “So, I’ve said this before. I thought it was worth repeating. It’s in Apple’s DNA that technology alone is not enough. That it’s technology married with liberal arts, married STUDENT FEES ARE GOING with the humanities, that yields us the result that makes our hearts sing.” The slide on the screen during these remarks showed a street sign intersecting two streets, one is technology and the other is liberal arts. This is a key idea that any tech company should adopt to make their products more useful to the general public. High understandability alone is not enough to make technology worthwhile. Along with easy usability, philanthropy is an essential element of being a good person or a good company.
