So there is a good chance BYU will not make the post-season this year.
I was struck by how small and young the BYU players are. All like 5'10" and 175lb. In such contrast to MLB players who look like monsters relative to them.

He is working with what he has. He is in his third season recovering from a complete dumpster fire. The team isn't quite there yet. Their second pitcher, Buffo injured his elbow and that may finish off the season, because you need at least two pitchers to be successful. Now, BYU has only one, Rucker.
Kyle Dean injured his back and has not returned. He is Littlewood's first major recruit. This season may give him hope for next year. We lose only two seniors but about six to missions. The guys playing aren't really even mostly his recruits. They came from two down to win in the ninth again. They have heart, just not enough pitching this year.
