When you think back to this past weekend in Statesboro, Georgia, what words come to your mind? The two that come to mine are missed opportunities. I think missed opportunities describes the weekend perfectly.
Texas Tech finished the Statesboro Regional with a record of 2-2, being eliminated in Game 1 of the Regional Final against Notre Dame by a score of 2-1. The Red Raiders had trouble getting the bats going all weekend, only averaging two runs per game. In comparison, Tech averaged about nine runs per game over the course of the season. Now, that number can be argued as inflated due to multiple games of 20+ runs (twice against Merrimack, once against New Mexico, and once against Kansas), however you would expect to score more than two runs per game, but the offense just never got going.
