Lol yeah take that back!  For some reason I didn't know the new SCIAC website updated standings in realtime.  Im used to the week delay on the old one   

La Verne sweeps the double header 7-5, 8-0 against the Kingsmen.  Game 3 tomorrow.  Conference starting to take shape.

Is Rauh really in his 10th inning?

La Verne loses Friday game 4-3 Friday by way of walk off homerun.  However, the Leos take the double header 9-4 and 4-1.  Interesting weekend!

Good call goodolsciac on Whittier.  Looks like Whittier only mustered 5 hits, but still came away with the win when Pomona-Pitzer hitting went silent.  Whittier hoped to be .500 on season, but now they are .500 against top 25 teams.  Will be interesting to see if they can keep it going.

Cal Lu steamrolls Oxy.  What happened Cal Lu  in Arizona? Is the Northwest conference that good?  Cal Lu seems to have some pitching depth; if they can improve their defense and keep their consistency at the plate, they will be tough.

Redlands has the hitting and starting pitching, but it they will need to develop more depth in pitching.  If they do, it could be a dogfight.

Watching the scores rise over the last two weekends in both of the Redlands series made me wonder if that was normal:  Aces go Friday and #2s on first game on Saturday and #3 on second game, so scores should rise, right?  Last year, there were 16 series in SCIAC with the same opponent all three games.  The average runs scored was 17 in the first game, 13 in the second game and 17 in the third game.  Surprised me.

This was definitely an interesting weekend in the Good ol' Sciac.  Whittier always starts the year off like this  (e.g Chapman series last year) but they often lose steam towards the middle of the year and end up in the spoiler role towards the end.  They start off like a bat out of hell which is why I had them taking one from PP. The loss to Whitter will make the run away conf. title at the end of the year a little tougher for Pitzer.  Although early, and with the absence of any significant series sweeps it is pretty much anyone's game in the SCIAC.  Also, remember that the 4 game matchups are still in effect this year. 

I would have liked to see the ULV vs Redlands Friday game go 9.  Take a look at the numbers at the time the game was called.

Univ. of Redlands... 002 000 -  2  1  0
Univ. of La Verne... 000 001 -  1  2  3


Oxy and Cal Lu still have to make up the first game of the series.  Should be interesting.

Scoring patterns in the Sciac seems to be a crapshoot. lol

I was in Vegas last weekend so I'm in a gambling mood.  So I figured why not take the 35 to 1 Whittier over Pomona.  lol 

Cal Lu 2-1 over Oxy
La Verne 2-1 over Redlands
Pomona 2-1 over Whittier
CMS Sweeps Cal Tech

You can take that to the bank. 

Pomona beats La Verne 5-4 in the bottom of the 9th with a walk off home run.

La Verne 14 Whittier 5


Cal Lu      6  Oxy       5
