No. 18 Rebs hoping Wahl’s arm comes alive at Georgia
By his own admission, Ole Miss starter Bobby Wahl just didn’t have his stuff last Friday at Kentucky.
The right-handed ace was very un-Wahl-like, walking four in four innings against the Wildcats, and said he felt like he had a “dead arm” while warming up in the bullpen.
After four innings he was pulled in favor of relief pitcher Aaron Greenwood. (April 12, 2012, Page 6)

Could Preston Overbey see time at catcher?
Ole Miss sophomore Preston Overbey made his career debut at catcher on Tuesday, catching right-handed freshman Chris Ellis in a perfect ninth.
Due to the injury to sophomore Will Allen, and Taylor Hightower no longer being a member of the team, the Rebels only have freshman Austin Knight and junior college transfer Kody Sepulveda as catchers on the roster.
Overbey has been working in practice at catcher because of the dwindling numbers behind the plate, so Bianco opted to give the corner infielder some game action against UT-Martin. (March 7, 2012, Page 7)
