The Hurricanes have been playing slightly better this past week, especially hitting.

However they continue to struggle in both pitching and defense, so let’s look at a few reasons why the struggles continue, and maybe look at a few ways the struggles can be fixed.

Defense

The Hurricanes have had major struggles defensively, committing 25 errors in 17 games, and having a team .962 fielding percentage.

This is strange for a Jim Morris led team, where normally we are used to seeing the ‘Canes near the top of the country defensively, in fact last year’s NCAA College World Series team was the #1 team in the country in fielding percentage.
