Few players had more to prove Saturday morning in Texas State’s second spring scrimmage than soon-to-be senior quarterback Duke DeLancellotti.

Even before the Bobcats started spring camp, head coach Dennis Franchione lavished a mountain of praise on DeLancellotti for the field general’s offseason work ethic. Franchione made it seem as if DeLancellotti, who only saw action in two games last season, was the odds-on favorite to assert himself.

Texas State is picking the right time of the season to start playing well after capping a three-game sweep over Seattle with Saturday’s 6-4 win at Bobcat Ballpark.

It was the Bobcats’ first series sweep of the season, but more importantly, the victory allowed Texas State to remain atop the Western Athletic Conference standings with a 5-1 mark.

Pretty impressive, considering the Bobcats entered conference play with an overall record of 7-14. So is the start of something good?

This past week I have had several individuals ask me about injuries, including myself.

As an old athletic trainer, I would fall back on the standard ‘RICE’ formula. This stands for Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation. This seemed to work for both sprains and strains to start letting the healing process begin.

I am not sure if all of these injuries have been the result of the marathon season winding down, and all of those long runs are finally catching up. The muscles, tendons and joints are just plain tired and need a time to recover.
