VWC gets another impressive pitching performance out of Daniel Samuels, as the Marlins improve to 8-2-1 with a 15-4 pounding on Ferrum.  Brandon Hathaway connected for a 3-run homer, the first of his collegiate career.
The Marlins are on a roll, hopefully the momentum will stay up for this weekends DH against Eastern Mennonite.

I dont know what has gone sour for the Panthers, but they have lost five in a row. Their only victories are sweeps over Huntingdon (3-10) and Averett (8-12).

Ferrum has fully justified that they are the worst team in the USA South with a pitching staff ERA of over 5.50 and only player (Franklin) with double digit RBI's (11).

i think you mean 10-4-1 rather than 8-2-1

VWC all over CNU today. 13-6 at the time being, Wesleyan may tack on a couple more before its over.

Narch, yes you are right. I misread their overall record with their record at home. My apologies.

narch's monarch thumped the Tigers today 8-4.....we scored one more run today than yesterday...no errors again...but.... the pitching gets real then after Hadra, Bailey & Breedlove. 1-1 on the southern trail...win tomorrow at Greensboro and everybody heads back to Farmville with a big ;D lose and we go home  >:(.

Year after year Coach Booth always seems to get some of the top local talent to return to the area and play for Va Wesleyan after a stint at D1 ball.....no exceptions this year with First Colonial Alumni Gary Bulhman...3-0 with a 1.57 is not shabby....and his 333 bating average doesn't hurt the team at all and he is only a freshman.....long term, will he stay and finish his career at Wesleyan?.....only time will tell.

i didn't get a chance to make it to the game, but i talked to someone who did - he said that hsc looked like a team that was much better than 7-13 and that the first two innings were just too tough for hsc to overcome - if the monarchs continue to get the pitching they have over the last 5-7 games, there are a lot of teams that will lose to them, especially at armstrong-shelley field - getting a strong 7 inning performance out of the #4 starter was big for mu yesterday, though, with the weekend series against ncwc coming up

From what I have heard, Bulman is staying put.  At VWC, they are letting him do his thing and he is getting it done.  But you never know, the right money could be flashed in his face.

A 32nd round pick (I believe?) last year, but optioned to sign with the University of Tennesse, Bulman has truly been lights out.  This is in the literal sense as well, as he hit a towering shot yesterday against the Captains that almost shattered a light in the parking lot behind Marlin Field.

narch....I only saw them against VWC...but I did see the Jekell & Hyde play that some of the parents I spoke with talk of .....game one they looked good and game two it was bad! I was told there is some talent...this freshman & soph pitching class was supposed to be solid.....their era's are scary...but there has been a lot of postion moves because of the lack of hitting and this has caused some of the pitching problems with poor defense....big innings after two outs have just killed them....We spotted you guys with 4 after two outs in the 1st inning. I don't know....hopefully they will play into a solid team.

31st Round by Arizona, He is a draft eligible next year since he will be 21 years  old at draft time.  So I think he is 2 and done with VA Wesleyan.

LC put up a 16-spot in the 2nd inning in a 22-2 defeat of Penn State-Harrisburg.  LC returns to action on Friday as the Hornets host Tufts University in the Jumbos' season opener.  A huge early-season ODAC showdown looms over the weekend as the 4-0 Hornets host the 5-1 W&L Generals at Fox Field.

In other ODAC games on Thursday...
H-SC fell to Greensboro 3-2
MEC lost to Mary Washington 4-3
RMC defeated Averett 4-3

It looks like H-SC is heading back to Farmville with a >:( face as the Tigers dropped a 3-2 ball game to the Pride from Greensboro. Just as Hornet7 said in an earlier post, they will probably pitch by committee....8 pitchers held the Tigers to 6 hits. Transfer Matt Daniel ( E&H) and fr Andrew Lawson pitched well for the Tigers. Lawson has pitched well in limited duty. I'm not sure why he hasn't be used a little more than others?. Once again the lack of timley hitting hurt their chances of winning a game. They are playing hard and competing...I think their fortune will change sooner than later. The Tigers finished 1-2 on their Carolina swing.

Looks like NCWC played 8.5 innings today and lost the lead to VWC in the bottom of 9. Tied up 4-4 top of 11.  I suspect they will play that game out when they come to Rocky Mount.

Deanes looked really good yesterday.  Had him on the gun at 88-90 today also showed a nice slider.  I'll have to give him another look.

[Deanes befriended Josh Hupe, local star and pitcher for the Minnesota Twins in the off season and helped him iron out some kinks in his delivery. He's getting better and more dominant each game.quote]
