QuoteJoe Towns is back who i thoguth graduated last May but I might be work

McMGuy,
Joe actually did graduate but he did it early, so he is finishing his eligibility while he works on his Master's.  Also the Patriots combined for 8 HRs and 31 Ks against UMHB this weekend. I am not sure where UMHB ranks in the West, but that should provide some indication to where they are so far this year. I think the series this weekend will be great.

UMHB edges Methodist University 8-7 in 13 innings last night in Abilene.

the article doesn't do the game justice...article made it seem like a mundane game.

Toby,

With all due respect, that was probably the 3rd or 4th rlease the SID had written that day.  While we all want to make sure the S-As get all the credit they deserve, we too have lives and families.  I thought the article was good and did what its purpose was, to recap the game.  Not too mention he had probably been at the games, if I know him.  So just know while an article may not be very detailed, as SIDs we often don't have the time to be as detailed as we would like, especially in the spring where some schools have as many as 10 sports going on at one time.  Just offering some insight.

QuoteCTX - 8 errors in three games??? What's the issue - tight scoring or were they true errors? Any know?

Dawgsdad,

Yes, they were true errors, as I was the one scoring the games.  The wind was vicious all weekend and really reaked havoc.  Now some errors were just errors, but on some if you have ideal conditions those plays probably get made.

UT Tyler beats Schreiner, 98-73.  Becky Taylor notched fifth double-double in five games and Melissa Thomas scored 30+ for second straight game.

UT Tyler was without Marzetta Shepard (at a funeral) and Melissa Thomas was still feeling the effects of a tough hit from CSB in the UWP game.  Not excuses, just facts.  The Patriots had trouble finding a groove in the early part of the 2nd, and although they rallied late in the 2nd it was too late.  Ralph, I could not find a MIAC poll either, but I know CSB was ranked 20 in the WBCA poll and 23 in the D3hoops poll.  Also, I saw where MC trounced Millsaps, 99-70, tonight.  From the results so far, I too think we are in a horse race for the East title.
