Jess Oakland is the player of the week: https://gophersports.com/news/2024/4/1/softball-oakland-earns-b1g-weekly-award Congratulations, Jess! Well deserved!

Here is the Extra Innings ranking of her at #24:

I don't recall Chloe having issues with her teammates. In her farewell message, she mentioned working on her mental health. Several of her teammates wished her well.

Emily Leavitt was supposed to be the next star pitcher. Her leaving was an Emily problem not a Piper problem.

Exactly! The athletics director was doing a poor job and was replaced by Pat Richter. He as much as said that she supported the department, stayed out of the way, and let him run the department.

Sorry that a bad year or 2 was all it took to lose you as a fan. Piper did fine handling both last year. One of the issues could be the number of pitchers she is coaching. It is hard to get six pitchers the individual attention they might need.

Unless the athletics director is doing a poor job, the only reason for the president being involved with coaches would be misconduct or rules violations by the coaching staff.

The way to bolster the chances of getting better players from the portal is to donate to Dinkytown Athletics. Without NIL money your chances are slim to none.

No. She hasn't played, but is still on the roster.

Unfortunately, privacy rules prevent the school from making any statement regarding her situation. Unless you can find inside information or the athlete provides the information, we may never know her reasons for leaving the program.

I have no idea why she left the team. Regarding her sitting on the bench, in the Gophers first 12 games, she started in 6 of them and was not lifted in any of them.

How much of the batting order is the responsibility of coach Wynn? Of course, coach Ritter could request an alternate order.

Minnesota native MB Kali Engemen transfers to MN from Georgia Tech:

Yes. Hence my attempt at humor.

Isn't she the freshman from Slovenia? :))

Neither Braun nor Hart were available for the 2nd Wisconsin game

In other games, Maryland smokes OSU 82-61
