A 'Dog Eat 'Dog World at Bulldog
Diamond
Fresno State swept Louisiana Tech in a doubleheader between two
teams nicknamed the Bulldogs on Thursday night at Bulldog Diamond.
Fresno State won the first game 5-1 behind a three-run home run from
Christina Clark (shown receiving high-fives from teammates) in the
sixth inning. Lori Hoffman pitched game one, giving up five hits
and one unearned run in the full seven innings. Laura Ferreira earned
the game two
victor with a complete-game shutout that Fresno State won 2-0. Jamie
Southern was 3 for 3
at the plate
to help the team improve to 46-15 overall and 19-1 in the Western
Athletic Conference. Fresno State hosts Tulsa next for a Saturday
doubleheader.

There’s no “I” in team. But there is one in “Shaquille.” And
there’s a “me” in “Malone.” And there’s
a “ry” in both “Bryant” and “Gary,” and
maybe this one’s a stretch, but ry sounds a lot like “my.” Before
this NBA season began, people everywhere were already handing the
Los Angeles Lakers the title, saying owner Jerry Buss
and General Manager Mitch Kupchack had assembled the best team
ever. I turns out, instead, that the Lakers put together the best
group of individual players. There’s a difference between
a team and a collection of players. You need only to look at the
Lakers’ competition
in the conference semifinals currently underway. The San Antonio
Spurs are perhaps the classiest organization in professional sports.
They play as a team, execute as a team
and win as a team.More>>
