BB: ODAC: Old Dominion Athletic Conference

A.G. · March 14, 2009, 08:51:34 PM

LC and W&L now postponed on Sunday, too. $:-\$

With two weekends of ODAC games washed/snowed out, I suspect pitching depth is going to play a huge role in tournament qualification and seedings.

VWC and EMU making up their DH on Tuesday this week.

what does it mean for the odac if teams cant get in the washed games from the past few weeks?

Teams are already rescheduling the lost games. Some will mean Sunday DH on top of the Saturday DH....LC and W&L are doubling up on a Monday. You will probably see some non-conference games take a beating as the teams scramble. Like I mentioned in an earlier post...it will be all about pitching depth.

Huge weekend for my Quakers. They play 4 conference games this weekend. On Saturday, a DH at home versus Hampden-Sydney and then a DH at Emory & Henry. I really think the Quakers can go 4-0 this weekend and put themselves in great position in the ODAC.

HUGE DH on Sat at LC between the Hornets and RMC. BC will try to get on track with a DH vs VWC, as well.

LC sweeps RMC behind stellar pitching performances by Connor Thompson (3 hits, 8 K's in CG shutout) and Joe Devlin (2 runs in 7 IP).

VWC spilt with BC, meaning LC currently sits alone at the top of the standings at 4-0.

From what I see RHP Nick Wilson got back on track vs Bridgewater after first bad outing of season...good to see that. He is one of my favorites to watch at VWC. Bulman still struggling with control.

HighHeat · March 22, 2009, 05:18:48 PM

VWC defeats Tufts, 14-5. Marion has four RBIs and CJ Rhodes has two hits. Samuels gets lit up again as he went just one inning and a third, giving up four earned. With Bulman and Samuels struggling so much, I wonder where VWC is going to go in terms of a third starter after Baker and Pisula.

Guilford split with EHC on Sunday. At 4-2, the Quakers are right in the thick of the early season race, and plays at LC on Weds in which should be a great game to watch. Weds begins a stretch in which the Hornets have NINE ODAC games over an two week period.

HighHeat · March 23, 2009, 09:55:18 PM

Okay, so I am no longer a doubter of Guilford's Kyle Wooden. It is 23 games in and the kid is batting .575. He's slugging a .975 clip and has 78 total bases already. He is flat out raking and I recant any statement that was said about him earlier.

Does anyone have any idea of what kind of glove he has and if hes playing summer ball anywhere?

LTBB1971 · March 24, 2009, 11:53:26 PM

VA Wesleyan going on tough stretch where they play at #2 Salisbury (THU), 2 games at Roanoke (SAT), 2 games at Hampden Sydney (SUN) and one at Randolph Macon (WED) within next 7 days.

2B Phil Cadle (.270-0-6), 1B Hilton Hiannicielo (.195-0-3), SP Gary Bulman (2-2, 7.71 ERA), SP Daniel Samuels (0-1, 12.00 ERA), SP Colin McNulty (0-2, 4.82 ERA) still struggling...time to shake things up and make some changes? Pitching is still an issue after Baker and Pisula. Maybe some other arms can step up and provide quality innings. Nick Wilson (2-0, 2.13 ERA, 25.1 INN) and Brett Horowitz (1-0, 2.37 ERA, 12 APP) have been godsend to the Marlins.

A.G. · March 25, 2009, 09:04:25 AM

LC has such a stretch that started yesterday...and today is the first of 8 ODAC games in the next two weeks...with games against Methodist (yesterday), along with NCWC and Shenandoah thrown in just "for kicks."

This is getting like deja vu...all over again!

QuoteLYNCHBURG, VA - The No. 14 Lynchburg College baseball team will have to wait again to take on Guilford College, as tonight's game with the Quakers at Lynchburg City Stadium has been postponed.

Local forecasts are predicting inclement weather for tonight and the next couple of days in the Lynchburg area, thus the reason for the cancellation. This is the third time this season that the Quakers and Hornets have been postponed, as today's game will be made up on Thursday, April 9 at 3 p.m. on Fox Field.

It also looks as though the person who wrote the announcement doesn't understand the difference between cancellation and postponement. If the game is rescheduled, then it hasn't been cancelled ... well, you get the idea.
