Maugeri hit the ball very well on Sunday when given the oppotunity to play. SIU couldn't come up with the big hit when needed against Notre Dame. They did have their opportunities though.
Billy Boockford played a nice game for the Irish.

SIU needs a fire lit under their collective rear ends. Pitching has been average to below average at best, defense has been ugly and hitting comes and goes. I've only seen a handful of games(6), but if they don't get it together soon it will be a long season for the Dawgs and will get real short when it comes tournament time.
