Interested in both these games. OWU plays John Carroll twice this season. That will give us a common opponent to compare to. It will be good to see how they do. It will be their first games. I hope they win or keep it close.

Nothing on Allegheny vs. John Carroll.

Wabash wins 11-9 at Hendrix. No box score yet so all I know is that J.T miller started. I don't know how long he lasted. Good to see the offense start off well. Giving up 9 may not be good but will have to wait for the box score to see the whole story.

Thanks Dr.
Wabash loses second game 3-10. I am still looking for a box score.

Wabash loses today to Hendrix 1-8.

[TexasDad]

We know Hendrix well. They have been outside for a couple of weeks playing both intra-squad and then 2+ weeks of regular season games. They are young but swing the bat well. CF is the real deal. First year coach who has the program moving in the right direction. Nothing shabby about Walbash's first games out of the gate with them.

[Bishopleftiesdad]

My son played with a couple of players from Hendrix last summer in Newark. Jacob Perschke, and Nick Land. Both were pitchers last summer. I see Jacob is a position player and not listed as a pitcher at all for Hendrix.

Is the CF Colin Radick? Because if it you are right he is the real deal. He played in Alaska last summer if I remember correctly.

[TexasDad]

Yes, Radick is the guy. Also,  RHP from there who my son played with in the past is set to play this summer for Newark if memory serves me correct. Will Nichol is the kid's name. Only a sophomore but he is a competitor.

It's really too bad the NCAA doesn't have a comprehensive stats page like the NAIA does.

[Bishopleftiesdad]

Not quite as pretty as that NAIA page but I have been able to find all I need here.

Considering the number of conferences and teams in D3 I am not sure a page such as NAIA's would work well.

[Bishopleftiesdad]

TexasDad,
My son will be in Va, next summer so I will probably be attending a couple of games in Newark. I will keep an eye out. Newark is not afraid to play D3 players. Land got quite a few innings last year and Perschke got quite a few starts. They also had a First baseman from Denison and a CF from Elmhurst, who played a lot of innings in critical games. It has payed off as Newark (licking County) have been back to back champions of the Great Lakes league for the last two years.

Kenyon's first game of the season is against Augustana, who today is ranked in the D#baseball.com's top 25. Way to schedule a tougher opponent. I hope this is online.
