New Season, Old Worries

with the Fall 2007 season looming Knights Captain Jeff Moore has to ponder just what will the new season bring. Just one year ago the Knights were coming off of a respectable 5-5 season with much promise only to fall victim to lack of consistancy and players. That Falls 2-8 record speaks volumes to the lack of offensive consistancy. But the Fearless Leader has new reasons to be confident. Adding Back 3B Jenna Johnson is going to be a significant improvement. This will allow Kallie to be used in a variety of roles including platooning at third, which the Boss believes will improve defense all around. Also joining the Knights will be Shauna Johnson (no relation) a former Fresno State Softball player she should add a good bat and defense at possibly second or a great improvement at first. With Matt "Gumby" Moore looking like a fixture in left it should make infield choices a bit easier. #57 may be looking at reduced playing time at any position, as it has been seen he has difficulty at anywhere other than first, and even that is shaky at best. In other news the Knights are sad to announce that U Andrew Haynes will not be returning for the fall installment. A good bat and generally solid defender, his play and antics will be missed by his fellow Knights.
