BB: NCAC: North Coast Athletic Conference

[Bishopleftiesdad]

Not nearly the numbers in the Great Lakes league as the Prospect:

Connor Murphy; Denison; Settlers: http://www.pointstreak.com/baseball/player.html?playerid=301334; 24 innings pitched 4.13 ERA

Kyle Koski; Wooster; Terriers:  http://www.pointstreak.com/baseball/player.html?playerid=313452; 12.1 innings pitched 5.11 ERA

That's it those were the only two I found. So far in both leagues it has been all hitchers, I haven't found any position players yet. Think I will check out the PCGBL next, I remember finding some Kenyon guys on those rosters in the past.

Nope none in the PGCBL.

Not sure about the NCAC, but there are a lot of younger OAC kids playing in the Tri State Collegiate League.  It's a wood bat league in OH and western PA made up of mostly FR/SO college kids.  It's a NABF league.  I know the Canton team has like 5 or 6 OAC kids on it.  All kids who went to HS locally. 

[Bishopleftiesdad]

I know OWU has one or two kids in that league and yeah it looks like local kids, don't think that league has host families. I will eventually get to it.

Bishops Lefty,

The only other one I could find is Duxbury from Denison who is playing in Alaska.

Hopefully the competition will get him ready for the spring.

Hello Bishopleftiesdad,

The Tri State Collegiate League has a website with rosters listed that might help with your player search. I would check, but I am not as familiar with the NCAC players as I am with the OAC. The website is www.tsclb.com. If you click on teams, select the team stats you want to check, and choose roster details, you should get the info you are looking for.

Hello Bishopleftiesdad,

Thanks for the tip, I have tried that and some of the reports do not work, Allegheny A's, or the roster does not have the schools the players attend. while I am reasonably familiar with some of the players, I really need the schools identified so I can tell the NCAC players. otherwise it is compare each roster against every NCAC roster. That may take me a while.

Freshman are on campus today for the first time. Waiting to hear from my son how may recruits show up. THis is all rumor mid you, but OWU will have there largest recruiting class in a while. it may be as high as 23. The last couple of years they have only recruited 7-10 guys.

With school and fall baseball about to start, here is a final wrap up on Summer in the Prospect League.

The D-3 kids really shone on the mound for the Chillicothe Paints.

Chris Thomas of Heidelberg was 7-0 with a 2.35 ERA in 46 innings with 41Ks and 19 BBs, not including 5.1 shutout innings of 1 hit ball in the playoffs vs. WV Miners.
JT Miller of Wabash was 5-3 with an ERA of 4.41 in 51 innings with 55Ks and 16 BBs.
Brandon Sega of Ohio Wesleyan was 1-1 with an ERA of 5.02 in 43 innings with 34Ks and 16BBs.
Keenan White of Wooster was 2-0 with and ERA of 4.55 in 29.2 innings with 21Ks and 11BBs.
Jack Peck of DePauw was 2-1 with an ERA of 3.86 in 35 innings with 27Ks and 9BBs.

Aaron Hopper did a good job in the field, hitting .330 with 12HRs and 53RBIs in 51 games.

Thanks to motorman for posting this on the OAC board. Most of these kids are in the NCAC so I thought I would post it here as well.

Fall try outs start Tuesday at Littick field. Son is excited. He counted 27 freshman on campus for baseball. Looks like few or none were lost to summer melt. We will see how many stick after fall practice. This is the largest class in quite a while. They lost 7 seniors:

2 OF- James DiBiassio and Seth Frentsos.
3 IF/DH 1/DH Nathan Strome, 1/DH Tim Knezovich, and SS Steve Gaydos.
2 P - Mason Farr and Kevin Schindler.

This should make for an interesting Fall and early spring. At least one spot in the rotation and 2 OF spots and 2 IF spots up for grabs.

Scrimmages start Thursday. Good luck guys

Was out at OWU scrimmage Saturday. . My son looked good pitching, Although as usual he said he did not throw very well, He always says he doesn't throw well.

The Freshmen looked very good especially at third and second. A few of them look like they will get quite a bit of playing time.

Anybody know the format or formula to determine who makes the tournament this year. Heard it was not going to be strictly two from the east and two from the west. Something about a cross over weekend.
