To provide a little support for Cal State East Bay.
Their losses include one to Division I San Jose State 9-3. SJS is very good this year and that game was competitive.
Another loss was to Division II San Francisco State which would be a very strong DIII squad. They also beat them twice.
While I did not, my son saw them at Menlo College.
His description was "they mash." He really liked their hitters and their approach. From the game he watched, he felt they compared well with their 2004 Regional team.
How old is your son? This is an adult topic, I hope he is at least 18...if he is not we cannot take his synopsis of "they mash" as official without a signed affidavit. for the record...the WAC is going to dismantle that San Jose State team, i respect their accomplishments in recent years, but they are young and will not make it passed La Tech and Nevada....Dont even get me started on that San Francisco State team, they are horrible....Just b/c they are D1 doesnt mean Cal State East Bay shouldnt beat them...Ill take your side that the SJSU loss is a legit loss, but the only thing they got better at by playing them was losing...and the loss to SFSU only gave them 1 of their 4 wins and once again made CSEB only better at losing....if you practice bad habits you will only form bad habits....after last season they need to be playing as many teams they can beat or in-region teams as possible not only to get all those seniors some padding for their stats and confidence to take into conference play, but also to give themselves the best possible chance for post-season play. Menlo College sucks.
