The anonymous college gossip Web site JuicyCampus.com, which stirred controvery at campuses across the country, shut down Thursday after a year and a half of operation, according to a press release from the company's founder.

Last season ended on a sour note as a walk-off home run by the then-No. 5 Oklahoma State Cowboys sailed over the left field wall and sent the Horned Frogs back home to Fort Worth.

Now, the baseball team has reloaded with the No. 9-ranked recruiting class in the nation, according to Baseball America, and head coach Jim Schlossnagle said this year's recruiting class speaks to the team's past success.

The difficulty of the home portion of the women's tennis season should serve as an opportunity to improve the team's ranking, the head coach said.

By improving that ranking, the team will improve its chances of playing host for an NCAA regional event.

"Hopefully, we end up hosting a regional event, meaning we finished in the top 16 or 17 at the end of the season," head coach Jefferson Hammond said.

But hosting a regional isn't the only thing the coach wants for his team.

Coming off a benchmark season in which the men's tennis team won the Mountain West Conference and finished No. 34 nationally, the Horned Frogs want to build confidence by playing against tough competition.

After three games, the team's record stands at 1-2, with losses coming from No. 24 Rice University and the No. 2 University of Texas. The Horned Frogs first win of the spring season came against the University of South Florida, the 28th-ranked team at the time.

A program connecting students with disabilities to federal sector employers nationwide will come to campus for the first time Friday, a career services official said.

The baseball team's newest additions on offense and defense have big shoes to fill after the departure of some important players from last year's team. But with the aid of the team's veterans, the newest Horned Frogs are already starting to fit in, the head coach said.

New to the Horned Frog infield this year will be freshman shortstop Taylor Featherston out of Taylor High School in Houston. Featherston was ranked as the 28th top prospect in Texas, according to Inside Prep Baseball.
