Hate to be the bearer of bad news for all SCAC enthusiasts out there hoping to see Trinity beat ND, but I don't see it happening. I was in Phoenix this weekend and watched ND start a guy who lived 92-94 through 6 innings (not exagerating, I was sitting behind a couple guns), then march out three other pitchers topping out over 90. I'm all for arguing the gap between DIII and DI teams is not that wide, but as far as the pitching is concerned...it is. That being said Bronson I know can throw the ball pretty darn well too (I hit off him numerous times - pretty unsucessfully), but its going to take a big effort to beat a team like Notre Dame.

Also interesting, Notre Dame's leadoff hitter is also the school's best wide reciever, Golden Tate. As you can imagine, he runs pretty well. Mike Scoicia's son is the back up catcher for ND as well. The apple kinda fell far from the tree because despite being a pretty big kid, hes got a wet noodle for an arm.   

Good luck to Trinity I hope they can pull it out, but I would recommend ramping up the heat on the old Iron Mike machine for the hitters.

Lynx tied with Millsaps 13-13 as i write this post...so much for the offense being a question mark for Rhodes this year.

Looks like this message board could use a voice for the Lynx in '09...its still early but this team looks very talented, and Coach C has more depth at each position than ever before. Having played at every field in the SCAC except Austin and Birm. Southern, I think the newly renovated field is now one of the top facilities in the conference.  Too bad for the freshly retired Lynx it came a year late...
