Ncwc splits on the day with Methodist. Winning game 1 5-1 and dropping game two 6-5. SO ss Ciro Norzagary didn't play. Definitely hurt the bishops in game two. As he probably would've pitched instead of SR Pleasant. JR 1b/DH continues to stay hot as he has a 5-9 with 4rbis on the day. I really hope that SS Ciro is back in as I would love to take the series against a overrated Methodist school. Seems to be the story for NcWC is past years. Start off very poor and get smoking hot at the very end as we saw the same scenario last year. Defense once again struggles with 60+ errors and have 9 games left. All I can say is I think Convent has this one wrapped up if they continue to play the way they are. 11-1 in their last 12. Taking the series against Ferrum which puts them in 1st. Only way I see it if Piedmont wins out in conference they will have the head to head against Covenent.

Not taking anything away from the kid, excellent player. but honestly in my personal opinion I would rather have a guy that simply gets on base and hits over .300 which all did, however you need a glove to complement your bat. Alexander made 9 errors. Steele made 16 and Dean made 21. I would take Alexander no brainer.
As for career stats, I looked back at Alexander's numbers and freshman year was not good then it seems as if he only pitched somphmore year. Not 1 ab. Junior year les his team in BA and made all conference team (which Steele did not) then senior year leads his team in hits doubles RBI on-base, and gets first team all conference.
Steele came in as a freshman and has been on a tear ever since. I Hope he has a good senior year. Kid can play.

Not sure how Steel made third team all region after only snagging honorable mention in the conference. Doesn't make sense. He wasn't even te best shortstop in the USA south

CNU does not deserve a bid. I dont care that they are ranked 24th. They shouldnt be. Look at some of there losses. and a tie to HSU. Although i would say they get a bid over SU. SU has always played a weak schedule.

Why are some teams from the USA south still playing? Only team I see getting in is Methodist because they won the tourney. CNU, I believe has had too many bad losses. If they get in that is rediculous. Baseball is too political.

I agree with both.
But I more agree with spence
I think most scouts look a build before numbers. I'd rather have a 5'8 SS who can get hit than a guy who's 6'4 and can't hit. But hey it is what it is. I just hate the fact that some young men get passed over because they don't fit the right "build" I've seen Alexander makes some plays that I dont think I D1 guy could make. As for Swartout. A good right hander is not hard to find. These 2 senior really led that bishop squad from what was looking like another bad year for the bishops to a second place finish in the conference and one of 4 teams left in the tournament. Any word on Regionals and who is in or out.

LTHS,
Do you think Swartout or Alexander will continue their baseball careers. Indy ball or overseas possibly?
I think Swartouts arm could be used by someone somewhere.
As for Alexander. Having only 9 errors in 123 chances, a glove like that and a .300 hitter coul be used

Bold predictions, but I like it. I'm certain to be there for a winner take all game. Ill be watching online. Going to be a good one. Going to be fun to see Chrissmon and Swartout battle. Although with it being senior day I don't see Swartout in gm1.

I agree. This weekend will be a good one with Weaver and Alexander playing each other. What are your predictions for NCW CNU series

Boysofsummer,
You don't think Alexander from NCwC is POY material? Or in the running?

LTHS,
Lovett changes positions. Lovett does not have the defense like Clark. Lovett does not have an arm like Clark either.

NCW takes 2 of 3 from Maryville. Bishops pitching was solid.
JR Beasley 43IP 36Ks 2.93 ERA. SR Swartout 40IP 9ER 2.01ERA
SO Brooks 34.2IP 2.86ERA
Offensively for NCW
SR Jake Alexander leads the Bishops with a .379 BA (36-95) .482 OBP 16RBI (under peoples radar)
FR Ciro Norzagaray .348 but only has 23ABs.
FR Justin Disanto .280BA .469 OBP 23 BB
FR James Lovett .333BA 54 at-bats only and 11RBI

Scherer is definitely a good candidate. He is tough to beat. And I can see Chrissmon or Bierlien winning it as CNU is nationally ranked and they do have much better record that others in the Conference. Pitchers may have good starts but if there offense can't win ball games then they are not recording wins. What about Player of the year. Any thought? And Any word on Shendenah after making switch to ODAC

Would you throw NCW SS Jake Alexander in the Mix for POY. If Swartout keeps throwing like he has I see him winning Pitcher Of The year. As for POY. Many possibilities right now. Anyone care to weigh in?
