We have our next two conference series on the road, starting this weekend at Kansas.

We swept Kansas State at home last weekend, but we followed that with a disappointing 2-0 loss Tuesday at Texas-Arlington. We need to regain our focus if we intend to win a series on the road this weekend.

We hit better last weekend against Kansas State than we have in a while, a trend that hopefully will continue this weekend. We are in the hunt for a Big 12 Conference title, and this is when the season really starts to get fun.

These are the weekends that we work for all year, so hopefully our preparation will be proven by our quality of play. If we bounce back from our Tuesday loss and play like we are capable of playing, then we should get another series win and be in a good position heading into the last four weekends of conference play.
