Baseball
The Whitewater Baseball team is kicking off their season traveling to San Antonio, Texas this weekend to play a four game series against Trinity. The Warhawks were ranked sixth in the D3baseball.com preseason top 25.
I went and watched the 2 NCAA games for women’s basketball games this past week, and it was awesome! They are moving onto the sweet 16, which is extremely exciting. I am friends with a few of the players on the team, so it is awesome being able to watch them succeed like this. I love supporting my fellow warhawks, and I wish them so much luck as they continue into the NCAA tournament.
