Cameron Hill: Embracing Failure to Win

By Sam McWhorter

Cameron Hill is a husband, a father to two sons, 11 and 10, and a sneakily good pool player. Oh, and he’s also among the best active coaches in NCAA Division III women’s basketball.

He’s certainly in the conversation as far as regular season feats are concerned, with the best win rate (.812) per season in D3WBB history during his seven seasons with Trinity. Bring it up to him, and he finds a characteristically logical way to deflect: “Wins can be scheduled, if I’m being honest with you.”

Trinity’s baseball team suffered a 8-4 loss to Texas Lutheran University (TLU) during a home game on Friday, losing their second conference game in a row after last week’s upset by Schreiner University.

TLU got momentum early in the game, scoring three runs in the first inning. Trinity was out hit by TLU 11-15 and the score reflected the absence of runs.

TLU’s pitcher mixed up his pitches very well, trying to get batters off balanced, as well as being very consistent, said Trinity pitcher Colin Serkowski.

Defensively, pitching for the Tigers was not as effective as it usually is. The Tigers went through four pitchers throughout the nine inning game. Coach David Smith said that the pitchers “needed to do a better job at executing pitches,” in order for the team to get outs that they needed to stop TLU from scoring more.
