(Hopefully by the end of the week. We’ll see)

[The Wildcat Chronicle @wildcat_chron]

With both Weber State track teams failing to win the Big Sky title, this is now the ninth season in Weber State history where any team failed to win a Big Sky Championship.

Is it the worst season ever? The answer will come in the upcoming post on Substack

[The Wildcat Chronicle @wildcat_chron]

If WSU fails to win a BSC title, I will be writing a piece on the seasons where they failed to win. Would this be the worst season in the school's history? We'll have to find out.

[The Wildcat Chronicle @wildcat_chron]

Weber State is getting close to failing to win the Big Sky in any sport for the first time since the 2010-11 season, and ninth overall. Softball pulled one out last year, but prospects aren't looking too great at the moment.

[The Wildcat Chronicle @wildcat_chron]

W Golf failed to win the title, and Sac State is dominating in M Golf rn. Both Tennis teams are long shots, as is track (nobody is beating NAU or MSU, barring a miracle). Softball remains the last hope (for the 2nd year in a row).

[The Wildcat Chronicle @wildcat_chron]

Yes, I am still alive. Just graduated from Weber State on Friday. I still hope to post some more articles/update existing ones this summer. In the fall... we'll see.

Happy St. Patrick's Day! 🍀
