Sports your school will be competitive in next year and the sports your school will not do so well….

ACU. The Wildcats will be immediately competitive in men’s basketball and baseball. Golf and tennis will hold their own. Football? Well, the Cats are replacing all five o linemen and most of the AQ7 will bring back virtually their entire teams…I’m hoping for improvement but this isn’t likely to be our year.

Women’s basketball and soccer will compete right away. Volleyball has struggled but the women’s team picked up three good players from the portal that should help. Softball has has a relatively new coach who has the program headed in the right direction and a grad transfer pitcher from Baylor throws fire.

Once upon a time ACU had world class t/f and cross country teams but that was a lifetime ago. I don’t expect to excel in cross country.

I dunno about either M or W tennis. We probably won’t have the worst teams in the league but not the best either.

Our best chance of winning the conference will probably be baseball or m basketball. Women’s basketball had an off year last year but we have an excellent coach and some good newcomers…so I expect her to have the team ready to compete.
