NORMAN, Okla. -- The OU baseball team concluded team practices in the fall during the second week of November with the annual Red/White Series.

In preparation for the 2010 season, SoonerSports.com will help fans get to know the numerous new faces around the diamond at L. Dale Mitchell Park. 

Throughout the three months leading up to the season, SoonerSports.com will feature one of the Sooners' 19 newcomers that will join a group of 17 letterwinners from the 2009 team that hosted the Norman Regional with the No. 7 national seed.

Each spotlight will include an updated bio, Q&A session and videos of each player in action from the Red/White Series and a scouting report from OU Head Coach Sunny Golloway.

The 12th installment focuses on junior right-hander Zach Neal. The Flower Mound, Texas, native was 13-0 at Howard Junior College as his team won the NJCAA National Title with a 63-1 record.

Neal was named a NJCAA second team All-American in 2009 after registering 104 strikeouts in 89 2/3 innings pitched with nine walks and a 3.21 ERA.
