Congrats to MC's Bell on National Hitter of the week honors! Seems that he found the same planet that Macklin was on back in early March! It's interesting that Macklin's tear was against MC and yet our second national nod has come from MC.

Will we see 70+ RBI from one or both of these guys before it's all said and done? Macklin is currently at 57.

Congrats to both players for there accomplishments - it's not an easy feat for sure...

I do not know if 70 is reachable in the regular season by either player, but anything could happen i suppose.

Brett Amyx for UTT had 63 RBI back in 2007 then the Patriots went 37-1 on the year but were still probationary and could not make it to the post season. What is the ASC record for RBI in a season?

David to McMurry had over 70 last year and was NCAA III player of the year.

Anyone know if he went on to play pro ball?

The record is 73 by David.

Garner Wetzel of Millsaps had 91 RBI's in 2006. Now that is a pile of RBI's which reflects he had a lot of good hitters in front of him in the line up.

I was referring for to the ASC record, my apologies if there was any confusion.

They went 11-6 versus the SCAC (i.e., SW, TU and AC) with McMurry versus SW on Apr 21st left.

The bottom 4 teams (Schreiner, CTX, HPU and SRSU) in the West went 12-12 versus the ASC-East.

The bottom 4 went 3-9 versus SCAC-West (AC, TU and SW).

The top 4 in the ASC-East (UTT, MissColl, UOz and UTD) went vs. ~~14-16 the West with one game remaining. (UTD vs McM).~~ go 16-16 with UTD's "Abilene Sweep" on April 13th.

Those same top 4 went 13-4 versus the SCAC (TU, AC, Hendrix, SW, Rhodes and Millsaps).

The bottom 3 of the ASC-East went 5-18 versus the West and 0-3 versus the SCAC-West (AC) with one game remaining (ETBU and AC on Apr 21st).

MC completed the sweep of Ozarks today with wins of 11-1 and 7-6, keeping them in the hunt for the #1 seed in the east.

I am still waiting for results between UTT and LC. LC really needs to update their website, they dont have any real-time game tracker and they do not update very quickly.
