The Bad - Well it's finally over. Stick a fork in them..... The FIU basketball team, under 1st year coach Isiah Thomas, ended their season Saturday with a loss in the 1st round of the Sun Belt Conference Tournament to the Denver Pioneers. The Panthers ended the season 7-25 coming up a little short of my prediction of 14-18. They ended the season on a 7 game losing streak which is not ideal... However, taking away some good from season one, everyone seemed to work hard and there is help coming next year.
As we've mentioned here a few times, Zeke has some 4 and 5 star players coming in so hopefully they can forget about this year and build on it. We'll see..
The Good - "Turtle" Thomas and the FIU baseball team are out to an 8-2 start. They did lose yesterday to #2 ranked ASU 4-1, but the Panthers have been playing well. Yesterday Garrett Wittels extended his hitting streak to 10 games pushing his average on the year over .500.
The Panthers are ranked #41st in the latest poll and with home games coming up this week against Boston College and Rutgers, look poised to make a push into the top 25, a spot FIU has never seen.
That makes Vanessa very happy!
