BB: ODAC: Old Dominion Athletic Conference

[NCWC]

I saw a show with the AD from Kentucky and he couldn't brag enough about how much money was going to be in the budget the next couple years.  It got me thinking.

[mybleedinghands]

These are not the same as the numbers on the COOL website.

I'm not sure which are more accurate, but I got curious about some others and then noticed that some of the ones cited weren't the same.

I'm surprised at how high Washington & Lee's marks are. I knew it was a very good school that I wish I had applied to (along with Virginia and Wake Forest) but from those numbers I might not have gotten in. Probably would have, but possibly not.

waht is the COOL website?

http://nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/

Put in a school name or a state name and then click on the school and you can get all kinds of info about it.

That site doesn't appear to ahve the most recent information, at least not for LC. LC's info is for last school year at best, some of the information is 2 years older or even older. Also, some of that information is just simply inaccurate, even for being 1-2+ years old.

Let's get back on topic, gentlemen.

LC sweeps down at MU today, defeating Frostburg 19-1, and following that up with a 7-5 win over Methodist.  Nichols got the win in game one, and Thompson gives up only 1 ER in 6+ against the Monarchs.

18-1 actually, and Conner gave up 3 earned runs, not one.

[A.G.]

18-1...and Conner only gave up ONE ER.  All the innings were extended by either E6 or E4.

box score says 3 earned runs, and what is E6 and E4? 

[mm77]

E6 is error by shortstop.  E4 is error by 2nd baseman.  If the play by play is correct, then there was only one earned run.

i could be wrong, but aren't both of the runs in the 2nd earned, as well, since the error would have been just the 2nd out and you can't assume the fc would have been the third out

[mm77]

Actually you do assume that the fielder could make the out on the batter.  That is why it is called a fielder's "choice".  The two runs in the second were unearned.  The fielder's choice would have been the third out.  All runs scoring after that would be unearned.

i think you're right as i look this over...i was forgetting that the runner on in the fc got there by error (despite the fact that i pointed it out earlier in my post) - either way, the ss looked like a defensive liability yesterday

Thanks for noticing "I may be right."  I used to score some D1 college ball...but I have come to be used to spotty score books at many of the D3 schools.  That just comes with the turf and I have learned not to get bent out of shape.

Either way, the LC bats came ALIVE!  With a little better pitching and making a couple of plays on Sunday, and it would have been a banner weekend for the Hornets.

Two big bright spots for LC were Ricky Capelli and Daniel Haugh.  Both hit all weekend, and Haugh looked pretty solid at his debut at 3B after working all fall and spring as LaBrie's backup at SS.

Capelli's success thus far is pretty surprising. Didn't do anything this first tow years here and didn't play the first few games this year then storms onto the scene this weekend!

[A.G.]

Capelli has been busting it in the intrasquad...moreso in the field than at the plate.  The same with Haugh.  The LC coaches did a great thing by letting Haugh get his feet wet at DH for 3 games before inserting him at 3B.  The young man has great hands and footwork at SS...and I wondered how he would make the transition to 3B...he passed with flying colors.

Hey Hornet guy.....is there a radio broadcast of your home games?  I will be attending next weekends games, but want to listen on the radio as well.  Thanks and good luck....I look forward to the road trip.

[A.G.]

Nope.  No livestats, either.
