BB: WIAC: Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

Well you can make that 12 losses for sure (the least amount a WIAC team will have in hopes of a Pool C bid) as Platteville sweeps Oshkosh today. I think that noise you heard was the WIAC's Pool C chances flying right out the window.

Wow, I'm assuming Oshkosh had to go pretty deep into their pitching staff for this double header.

Actually they only used four pitchers in the Monday DH and nine pitchers in the four game series. No pitcher was used in more than one game.

Not that anyone needed any proof that Superior is...ahem...not good, but I thought this was amazing.

Superior has only held the lead in a WIAC game twice this season in 16 games. Both times, the lead lasted for exactly 1/2 inning.

Led La Crosse 2-1 at the end of the 1st

Led Oshkosh 1-0 at the end of the 1st

Yikes!

As long as it continues at least one more weekend.

I was surprised to see Oshkosh only salvage a split with Marion yesterday though the Point series this weekend probably had an impact on what pitchers they used. But, Marion?

I think it said something in the boxscore that they started 7 freshman, including the DH (Shere, Arrowood, and Accola.) Looks like Lechnir is going back to his old ways, instead of using transfers to plug holes for a year or two.

WHITEWATER[/color] gets the first two against Superior 14-3 and 9-2.

Superior led 3-0 after the first inning in game one but the WARHAWKS[/color] answered with 3 in their second at bat and scored in 4 of the next 5 innings for the seven inning victory. Matt Schliewe drove in five runs with a double and a home run while Jordan Stine, Greg Harder and Ben Prather had 3 hits apiece.

The game two the WARHAWKS[/color] went up 9-0 before Superior got a pair of runs in their last at bat. Stine continued hitting well going 3 for 4 with an RBI. Prather also had three hits.

------------

Oshkosh and Point played a pair of dandies today. Oshkosh trailed 1-0 in game one and had gone hitless into the sixth inning when they got their only two hits of the game, a two out single followed by a home run. Oshkosh holds on for the 2-1 win.

Game two was even wilder. Point blew another lead and the teams went to extra innings when the game was tied 3-3 at the end of nine. It continued that way until the bottom of the 11th when Oshkosh drew three walks. One was intentional, the last one forced in the winning run, 4-3.

Hopefully the Pointer can rebound for a pair of wins tomorrow.

Any updates on which games are being played or not? I know many teams had moved their game from Sat. and Sun. to Fri. and Sat.

Today's WARHAWK[/color]/Superior doublehitter was moved from Superior to the Humpty Dumpty Dome and the start pushed back to 8pm. Looks like some midnight baseball tonight.

Oshkosh/Point was cancelled and rescheduled for Monday.

Does the WIAC conference tourney champ get the bid or is it a combination of the season and the tourney?

The Regular Season champion is considered to be the WIAC Champion. The tournament detemines only the automatic bid.
