There is anticipation that comes with a new coach and new players. But the beauty of baseball is steeped in talent that emerges unexpectedly...sometimes from a source that's been there all along.
Now just ten days away from the start of baseball season, we were asked to name our all-decade team from time covering the Buckeyes. We did it, and what they've done since leavingt Bill Davis Stadium (Tanner Tully, above) is worth the read. Enjoy today's Press Pros feature.
Ohio State's Carson Kharchla reversed a run of bad luck with a 3-2 victory that typified the close nature of more than a few matches that tilted the fourth-ranked Buckeyes' way Sunday in a 21-12 dual meet victory at No. 13 Northwestern. (PressPros file photo).
Ohio State started slowly again, stayed close through the first six minutes of the second half, but still couldn't make enough happen to take the lead even once in losing for the ninth time in 10 games Sunday at Michigan.
Fifth-ranked Ohio State had its moments, like this Ethan Smith mat-return against two-time NCAA champion Carter Starocci, but not enough of them Friday in a loss to No. 1 Penn State. (PressPros Feature Photo by Sheri Hooley).
