To me, Valenzuela underachieved, especially in conference play. Believe his last two years he finished fifth and seventh? I salute Peters for taking the interim position and trying to hold the program together with his only assurance being to see if he could pull a rabbit out of a hat, overachieve in 24 and be given a contract to rebuild the program. Where the Dirtbags ended up is right where the preseason polls had predicted. Remember that Peppi and Saldivar both left for Fresno State NIL money. Both were hitting well over .300 the last a checked a few weeks ago.
