Thanks, Chakote! I am pleasantly surprised at Carthage's success this year seeing how they had few returners from last year. I thought they would be "rebuilding" this year and struggle a bit in the CCIW. For once, I am happy to be wrong.

Thanks about AG.

I think that the committee wanted to split the 2 NWC members.  IMHO, GFU and Pac LU will be bussed, Chapman will go to Linfield and some other team will be flown to another regional, e.g., Mississippi College or Cal Lu if they get Pool C bids.

Chapman #1 in the west once again, I am sorry for bragging but this is 4 years and 4 years of great baseball, they fought hard all year and didn't give up I am proud of you Panthers thanks for the memories

[Ralph Turner]

Congratulations Chapman, on a successful season.

Chapman returns pitchers with a 19-12 record and a 6.12 ERA (based on last years stats).  I am really not sure about this team but they always find a way to win.  Also, who is the coach that voted them #1 in the Pre-Season poll   I think Chapman has a lot to prove this year, but they very well could do it, just like they have the past few years.
