WPI took Keene right out of their offense. Majority of offensive possessions were spent well outside the perimeter...KSC had trouble getting the ball inside to Wright/Walcott and newly added Howard. WPI led by Marco Coppola found himself successful when making one move left and going right to the rim ALL NIGHT...finished with 23.

Owls shot just 60+ percent from the FT line however went 4-10 from behind the arc to stick around. Engineers didn't stay in this one by the 3...solid ball movement while forcing 26 turnovers had 25 points off of them.

Owls look to rebound @ Elms College on Tuesday before the Turkey break.

Great win for KSC.

And to the conversation about the bench not being into the ballgame...I cannot speak for EC..however, EVERYONE on the Owls WANTS these wins.

I've gotten to know these boys by spending days, nights and weeks with them at a time..there is passion and love for ball like no other.

As for EC, I still think they get a bit to regionals (just sayin)

Quags doin' big things again for the Owls as he did two years ago in the LEC's. Kscer - Vita again. Agreed. Clutch for the Owls hitting in the 6 spot.

Can be worse for me sitting in CT while wishing I was in Gorham for these games...

Oh and 1 more thing how does a guy who throws a NO HITTER not get on the d3 team of the week?? I am curious to how many other guys that have thrown a no-hitter this year have been left of. THATS A JOKE.

Perhaps it was because he was voted D3 pitcher of the week...

They really shouldn't need to beat Eastern (for the 5th straight year) to get the national recognition. Did they not win the NE regional last year? All I'm saying is they have nearly identical records to Keene and Eastern this year after winning the regional last year and have beat both, yet are ranked nationally below both.... 

WNECalum222--Couldnt agree more with some of things you said...Most of the coaches voting in national polls and such really havent looked at a lot of head-to-head play in comparison of schools. Granted the Bears blowout of KSC earlier this month was a big win, it obviously wasn't the Owls showing up to play at all that day (I was at that ballgame, it was pitiful). WNE lost to USM from the LEC early in the season; KSC has them this weekend. I do however agree that WNE should be getting a little bit more attention but doesn't the lack of national recognition help spark a little fire at a motivating standpoint?

Anyways, lets see how things pan out...still more regular season baseball to be played. PLAY BALL!

KSC pummels Curry College 19-2 in 7 innings. Owls with 19 hits.

Bates with 3 (2 runs), Morrill with 4 (4 rbis and 2 runs)

Owls 6-9 batters scored 10 runs.

Next up: USM for 2 on saturday in Keene, NH

Oh and Western's home-run style offense got it done today! They still trump the LEC in homeruns...good work by the bullpen as I'm watching the archived broadcast on littleeast.tv

Thats what conference baseball is all about

Owls get another great midweek start from Nick Winn. 7 strong (threw 5 against Amherst for the win last week).

Owls will take on WNEU or WNE as they like to be called now...tomorrow at 3:30

Yep, the KSC Owls sure got some national attention alright. They ended up with the same number of votes as Amherst and 1 more vote than Southern Maine.

:(Word

Yep St. Joes gets into the top 25...finally. 21-3 (one of three teams with three losses)

KSC gets one. ECSU drops from 5 to 9..Wheaton now 6

Aurora is a good ball club finally getting in at #25. Took 2 from KSC down in Florida early season.

KSC/PSU today at Owl Athletic Complex....listen/watch

As always leave your feedback at fbbowls@gmail.com

Sitting at work with zero video or live stats of KSC/ECSU...

Sorry LEC viewers, I will not be at Eastern today for the pair of games.
My picks..
KSC SWEEPS ECSU (Go Owls)
RIC SPLITS PSU
UMB SWEEPS WCSU
USM SWEEPS UMD

USM and Salem St. should be a good one today.

USM had a tough 7-6 loss yesterday against a HOT St. Joes (ME) team...The Monks had 3 errors to USM's 0.

Both teams with 10 hits.

Salem is 8-2 in their last 10...winning 5 straight having a nice 16-5 start.

Keene State taking on Framingham St. today from the Owl Athletic Complex. Starts at 3:30.

Find the video broadcast here: http://www.keeneowls.com/broadcast/bsb

As always, if you are tuning in... drop us an email at ffbowls@gmail.com

Feedback is always appreciated.

Owls have won 8 straight ... Framingham is 11-9 with a 2-1 in the LEC all against UMB this year..

That UMB/WNEU will be a good test for the Beacons today..

I'm hoping USM competes with St. Joes...would be a great story if they pull off a well played game and a W against the Monks.

KSC second straight NESCAC game taking on Williams.
