Kunkle has really filled the shoes of McNeil in his absence. Strong player and a joy to watch.

 

Kunkle has been Kunkle that's no surprise but the biggest filling of the shoes has been Rohlman, Hendrix, Chris McNeil and the play of Watson. All 4 of these players have raised their games extensively. Runion has been even been a good surprise hitting key shots and playing good defense. Been a joy to watch coach Sully get all the players to raise their levels.

Kunkel and CJ Fredrick are the two most pleasant surprises in the 9th to me this year. Both have so much more to their game than people expected in October. They are going to be so much fun to watch the next two years, next year in supporting roles to Sean and Cole, the year after as THE men.

 

I totally agree with your statement!
