When 17 players donned the black and gold for the first time last season, nobody dreamed the first-year College of Southern Idaho softball program would be fighting for a Region 18 Championship in May, taking a 5-0 lead into the top of the 4th inning of the cham- pionship. Twelve of those players that fought through four elimination games to reach that championship are back. Now they want to prove the top is where they belong. This time they want to be on the winning end of the Region 18 Championship. To do that, CSI head coach Nick Baumert will rely on the Golden Eagles experience and depth. Ranked ninth nationally in the NJ- CAA pre-season poll, CSI will begin the 2008 season with a bullseye on its back. “We want to build upon the success of last year but not dwell on it,” Baumert said. “This team has a chance to do something special.” A big key will be in the pitcher’s circle. All four Golden Eagle pitchers are back, led by Region 18 first team honoree Jody Zillner. After starting the season 8-8, Zillner finish strong going 6-2, ranking third in the league in ERA. She is backed up by five talented pitchers. Returners Desi Thomson, Stephanie Holmes and Lacey Bowman all proved they could get it done last year. Freshmen McKensy Hillstead and Kyla Bryant bring depth and talent to the circle. At the catcher position, returners Anna Sorrell and Lauren Kurtenbach are joined by freshman Megan Zimmerman. First team all-region selection Rachel Evans anchors the infield. She is joined by returners Candice Benard, Katelynn Warren, Jamie Stone and Sarah Haney. Newcomers Rocky Kroll and Melanie Meyer give Baumert a lot of choices. In the outfield, sophomore Rochelle Noren re- turns as the best CSI hitter. A first team all region selection, Noren ranked third in the league in bat- ting average. Freshmen Dani Grant and Cassi Mer- rill also will play outfield for the Golden Eagles. Holmes and Bowman can move to the outfield when they aren’t pitching. “We are lucky to have so many kids that can play so many different positions,” Baumert said. “Each player will be pushed every day. If someone is having a bad day, there will be a player there to step in and contribute.” With 19 players, it will be a fight for playing time but Baumert hopes that will push everyone to rise to a higher level and learn to play hard every day. “We talk every day about taking advantage of opportunities and that essentially the players write the lineup,” Baumert said. “I’m excited to see how far this talented team can go.” To win the league, the Golden Eagles will need to get by No. 12 Salt Lake, the defending NJCAA National runner-up North Idaho, Snow College, College of Southern Nevada and Colorado North- western. “That’s the great thing about this league,” Bau- mert said. “On any given day, anyone can win. We will need to win at home and steal some wins on the road.” Playing on a newly built field, CSI will open league action at home Feb. 22 against North Idaho.

 Nick Baumert 2nd Season

Nick Baumert begins his second season as the College of Southern Idaho women’s head softball coach. In just one year, he built a brand new program, led it to a second-place finish at the Region 18 Tournament and earned Region 18 Coach of the Year honors. Baumert said he is honored that he was the one selected to start a new program at the college. “I consider CSI the best junior college in America,” Baumert said. “This is a dream job for me. To be a part of the CSI family is really special.” Baumert, who was the Twin Falls High School varsity coach for seven seasons, led the Bruins to a 159-46 record during that time. He won the Region III title five times and placed fifth three times at the state tournament. Throughout his high school coaching career, he coached one high school All-American, six Region III Players of the Year and 29 Region III first team selections. He also helped 12 players continue their softball career at the college level. Baumert received coach of the year accolades five times for Region III, twice for the Times-News and seven times from the District IV coaches. Most recently, Baumert was named Distinguished Softball Coach of the Year for Idaho in 2006. Baumert, 40, is married to Karen. They have two daughters, Katelynn and Kylie.
