While I understand "Chris Brooks" wanting to stand up for his team and make a push to get his team in, there is nothing anyone can do and both MC and UTD have to sit around until selection day anxious. Seems like a similar situation every year that teams think they are deserving and get left home...

Last year everyone speculated between a CTX team that was 26-13 in region (better win % than both teams this year with .667) and UT-Tyler who only lost 9 games all year, though i'm not sure about region record.

CB put up numbers against hard or ranked teams as well and said you went 9-11 in those games and you think you'll get in?  CTX won 3 of 5 from #5 ranked UTT last year, 3 from #21 UMHB, 2 of 3 from Ozarks, 2 of 3 from Trinity (who made it to the regional), but the only downfall ws losing 4 of 5 to eventual champ McMurry, a similar situation that MC is in now in losing to the Champs.

CTX and UTT cancelled each other out last year pretty much and that regional was in Abilene, a mere few hourse drive to location, while this years is at Linfield... I just don't see either team getting in and would be surprised if they did. I would be happy for them no doubt, but a tad skeptical as to what changed from last year to this year to not either of those teams in.

Unfortunetly, the West region is too damn big and nobody wants to change anything while the power is in the East (Southern MAINE??????)  is the number one ranked team, a team from Maine? Come on!!!!  Oh well I hope one of those 2 teams gets in this year and plays UTT in the championship of the regional and the winner makes some noise  at the World Series.

Alright well I guess we are out of the woodwork then...
I don't know anything about this Boyd's ranking thing, but I know that if it's on a national level then the west and the ASC should be proud to have teams ranked pretty high... We all know only the ASC champion will make a regional that's in Oregon this year unless maybe tyler sweeps MC and loses 2 in the championship at the Tourney...

Injuries and unforeseen personal issues, but thanks for asking

I'm really looking forward to see how this weekend turns out, since Tyler entred the conference nobody has had this much of a shot to take the conference from them and once again the top of the West is all jumbled up. Should be and interesting weekend with some nasty weather mixed in possibly!

Like I have said before, the Concordia fans will come out of the woodwork when they win a series.

If you had been paying attention all year baseballfan, you would have noticed that UMHB beat both HSU and McMurry 2 out of 3 earlier in conference play.

Now I know they got swept this past weekend by your beloved CTX team, but that shouldnt take away from what they have accomplished this year. Should they be ranked 30? Probably not. But that doesnt mean that they have played a soft schedule, or shouldnt be given any credit this year.

They have played very well in my opinion for a young team. They have dealt played a majority of the schedule this year with 5 freshman in the starting lineup, hence the inconsistency at times. I would be much more alarmed if they were playing this inconsistent with a team loaded up with Juniors and Seniors like some other teams in this conference that have struggled this year.

This is all just my opinion of course.

man must be a hard luck UMHB fan... but sorry to burst your bubble about coming out of the woodwork. I said nothing about the games or anything involved with them, but rather only commented that even with their lack of wins in confernece this year, things could pan out where they still make the playoffs. That's all. Nothing about either team or anything associated with the series. Sorry your so angry still...

TexasBB no worry about the CTX series this weekend? With predicting UMHB taking 2 of 3 from HPU your leaving the door wide open for CTX to sweep and take that last playoff spot.

TLU
MCM-- these three battle for the top... no prediction here
HSU

CTX/UMHB- can ctx sweep schreiner and HPU play spoiler to the Cru's year?

HPU completed the sweep today of CTX...

In a second game, Nebraska Weslayan beat the Tornadoes down 13 or 14 to nothing and was shortened by the coach I believe, as it ended after the 5th.

HPU wins both in Austin today... first game was 4-2

Game 2 was an extra innings loss for CTX 6-5...
#7
CTX will play a double header starting at 4 PM sunday against HPU... followed by a monday game at 1 against HPU and then playing a visiting Nebraska Weslayan at 7 that same night.... pitching and mental toughness will be tested on those 2 days. 

As of right now, all games are at their new home field Nelson Field
