Kind of talk a little bit about when you first came on the job, just kind of the challenges of, you know, filling out the roster that was left behind, 'cause I'm sure there, there were some challenges there, and just your overall arching idea of, like, what kind of player you want to recruit.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's a, that's a good question.

You know, it was, it's a unique roster because, like, returned talent here, um, and, and Coach Hajek, UCCS, and, and the school itself, like, they were able to r- retain a lot of guys when I got the job, right? So it wasn't like, hey, you take the job and there's six guys on the roster.

I think there was still some, um, you know, really, really, uh, contributing pieces that were on the roster, which kudos to UCCS and the school and, uh, the department and then Coach Hajek.

Um, but for us, like, became, hey, we, we use a bullpen a little bit differently and, and, um, you know, wanna have matchup capabilities back there, wanna have counter moves for moves, so, like, we need some experience back there and, um, wanted to get some older guys in the back end of the bullpen.

We were lucky.

You know, what, what should we expect out of UCCS baseball in the 2027 season?
