Coach Ogilvie’s Comments: "Matt was having a great Fall in 2004 before having to undergo surgery. He's worked hard to get back in shape and is improving each day. He splits time with baseball and the Martin Methodist Chorus, so he missed several hours of practice time in the Fal, but will be with us full time in the spring. He should see some playing time during the pre-conference schedule to see his first college action."
