He gave Florida four solid innings in a College World Series game against NC State, while also pitching a solid 3.1 innings in a win-or-go-home regional contest against Oklahoma State.

That said, the overall numbers for the year weren’t glamorous.

Cade Fisher finished his sophomore season with a 4-3 record and a 7.13 ERA, clutching up nine saves in 26 appearances on the mound. He threw 59.1 innings and gave up 67 hits, as well as 47 earned runs. He struck out 76 while walking 29.

Fisher’s freshman year ended with a 6-0 record and a 3.10 ERA, while he notched 48 strikeouts in 49.1 innings of work, giving up only 13 walks.

After going 13-17 in SEC play to end the season, Florida was able to go on a run in the NCAA Tournament, making it all the way to Omaha. There, the Gators managed to win two games but had two losses to Texas A&M to eliminate them.
