In this episode, Rusty and Lacie recap an unforgettable weekend at the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic, where Lacie experienced a full-circle moment—once a young fan collecting autographs, she is now the one signing for little girls with big dreams. She reflects on what it meant to play on the main field, the energy of facing Nebraska, and the surreal realization of inspiring the next generation.

The duo also breaks down San Jose State’s strong performances, including Lacie’s dominant outings in the circle, key offensive moments, and the team’s resilience in a competitive field. They discuss the mental and physical grind of late-night games, questionable scheduling that underestimated their team, and the motivation that comes with being ranked last in the conference preseason poll.

With a refreshed mindset, strong leadership from the senior class, and a new pitching coach bringing renewed confidence, Lacie explains the shift in team culture and why this season already feels different.

From big wins to tough losses, this episode is filled with honest insights, humor, and motivation as the Spartans gear up for the remainder of their season. Don't miss this behind-the-scenes look at college softball’s biggest tournament and what’s ahead for Lacie and her team!
