Mequon, WI – Last season, Marshall Kasowski became the first Houston Cougar to journey north to play for the Lakeshore Chinooks and after his stellar season on the mound, went back and told his coaching staff about his incredible experience. The result is that three of his teammates from a UH program that has posted consecutive 40-win seasons will follow in his footsteps for 2016. Sophomores Connor Hollis and Zac Taylor will join UH freshman Nolan Bond in Mequon at the conclusion of what could be a very promising NCAA season for the Cougars.
