I've commented previously that Eric Orze is likely the last guy that will ever come straight out of UNO and make it to major league baseball.

There's a decent chance that will hold up, but it bears mentioning the season that former Privateer catcher Miguel Useche is having in the Cubs' system.  He had a good run at Single-A South Bend, has been promoted to AA Knoxville, and has been tearing the cover off the ball since arriving at AA.  He just had home runs in both ends of today's doubleheader in Chattanooga and is, as of my typing this post, OPS'ing over 1.000.

Still don't think he's considered a big prospect, but just a guy to keep an eye on.

Looks like there is going to be some changes at the games.

I can't imagine where this is headed.

I feel like there wasn't an announcement about this but we do have a 2026 volleyball schedule.  It actually feels like a slightly upgraded schedule than normal with less SWAC and more western/west coast vibes.  I just assume all volleyball teams out west are good.  This is probably wrong but that's what I assume.

First four conference games on the road.

Also, the home games are still designated as being played at the HPC.  Not sure if that needs updating or what.

This video is very well done by a faculty member and the students the University.   Totally done in-house.     

I would hope that the University would assist the athletic department  and this film studies group to produce the same quality videos for the promotion of the department.
