We do have a favorable side of the bracket.

If SFA was in the other bracket

0-3 series loss to Nicholls (Nicholls dominated this series)
1-2 series loss to Southeastern (did play SLU very close should have won it)
1-2 series loss to McNeese
2-1 series win over HCU

More history being made this season, as SFA gets two players on the 1st Team All-Conference Team, first time in a decade (Conner Fikes, Garrett McMullen, and Kyle Thornell 2016) to have multiple players selected. The last time with at least one player was 2019 with pitcher Alex Palmer


Let the conference in Hits and RBI's
AVG:.329;OPS:.865;R:40;H:70;2B:12;3B:4;HR:5;RBI:53;BB:12;SB:10


AVG:.309;OPS:.849;R:38;H:52;2B:8;HR:3;RBI:26;BB:42;SB:4

From the first pitch to the final out, y’all showed up for us every step of the way.

Thank you to the best fans in the Southland for riding with us all season long!

Is it supposed to happen by then?

I believe so. Football is supposed to be ready by the start of the 2028 season too according to the timeline. The next few years will have the campus looking like downtown Houston with all the construction.

According to Vanderburg in the interviews done during the SLC Tournament, he is saying the 2029 season.
