After having an error in Game #1 in his only chance, Gerber moves back to first base for Game #2....

Point splits with St. Thomas, losing the opener 3-0 as Max Frederick is the tough luck loser.  They score four runs with two outs in the 7th inning of the nightcap for a 4-1 victory. 

UST pitchers Maher and Gapinski absolutely dominate Oshkosh and Point hitters this week.....

Gerber moving to first has everything to do with how Hanke has been struggling at the plate.
And exactly where he would be playing if Polcyn was on the Pointer roster....  I don't agree with Shinetime's POY comment, but at the same time to say that Polcyn wouldn't be starting in the infield for Point is a bit over the top was well.
I made that comment thinking Polcyn was playing SS or 2B.  Polcyn wouldn't beat out Douglas or Jirschele.
You also said they wouldn't move Gerber back to first to play Polcyn at third base....  I disagree...

With another error yesterday in his only chance at third base, Gerber now has an .800 fielding percentage with two errors in 10 chances for the year at third base.  Compare that to Polcyn's two errors in 28 chances.

UWW wins the first game of it's Florida swing, 14-2 over Clarkson.  The Warhawks scored 9 in the bottom of the first on 4 hits, 3 walks, 2 HBP and 1 Clarkson error. The hawks added 1 run in the second and 3 in the third, thanks to a Steve Bartlein home run. The upstate New Yorkers scored their 2 runs in the 6th on 3 hits, 1 walk and a wild pitch with a Warhawk error mixed in for good measure.  UWW scored one final time in the 7th and the game ended due to the run differential rule.

Kyle Stewart (2-0) went 6 innings (2 ER, 4 hits, 2 walks, with 7 SO's) to earn the win. Bartlein was 2x3 and a walk at the plate with 4 RBI's to lead UWW. The Golden Knights finished their Florida schedule at 6-3; the Warhawks are now 3-2

Warhawks were to play Western New England later on thursday.

Can't complain too much with Point being 7-3 but one will have to wonder if their just going to pound the bad pitchers and lose to quality pitchers. What's going on with Wendorf?  I had him penciled in as the ace of the staff but it appears he's having some control issues.  Point desparately needs him to be the Wendorf of last year to have a shot at winning the WIAC.  All in all the team looks pretty solid but not spectacular.  I for one am shocked with the way Stroik and Frederick have looked so far.  That can only help their chances this year.  I'm kind of surprised that La Crosse is only 500.  Thought they would really be good this year.

Matt Beyer solo home run in the top of the ninth.  Eric Schmitz (2-1) gets the win in relief.

Ugly loss yesterday 7-3 to Benedictine.  Jack Larson (0-2) takes the loss.  Jared Fon (2x4) and Kyle Stewart (2-4, 2 RBI) have multiple hits.  WARHAWK defense plays poorly (6 errors).

Don't sleep on LAX quite yet. Having seen the Point, WW, Osh & LAX all play in the Metrodome, LAX is the best offensive unit of that group.

The WARHAWKS split a double hitter with Chicago on Saturday winning game one 8-5 and losing game two 6-0.  Tom Kerndt picked up his second win of the season with a complete game in the opener.  Kerndt allowed 10 hits, 5 runs (4 earned) while striking out 6 and walking a pair.  JT Schneider, Sam Keller and Matt Beyer all went 3x4 at the plate and each had a pair of RBI.  Jared Fon and Mike Mierow each had a pair of hits with Fon getting an RBI and Mierow scoring 3 runs. 

Matthew Roberts took the loss in game two giving up 6 hits, 6 runs (4 earned) walking a pair and striking out 4 in 3.2 innings of work.  Eric Schmitz relieved and pitched 2.1 scoreless innings giving up a single hit and striking out a pair.  As a team the WARHAWKS were held to three hits with Beyer getting a pair and Dominick Cannon getting the other one. 

The WARHAWKS (5-4) are off until Tuesday when they'll play a twin bill against Southern Maine.

The WARHAWKS improved to 6-4 by defeating Southern Maine 5-0 today.  The box isn't available yet so I don't know the details.  I do know that Kyle Stewart got the start and was pitching as late as the eighth inning.  Details to follow when made available.

Stewart (2-0) went the distance giving up four hits, one walk and striking out 7.  The WARHAWKS scored one run in the fourth on a sac fly by Mike Mierow, two runs in the seventh with one unearned and a sac fly by Matt Beyer and two runs in the eighth on singles by Jared Fon and Fred Gromalak.  Fon led the 15 hit WARHAWK offense going 4x5.  JT Schneider went 3x5, Mierow 3x3 (dbl) and Marty Herum 2x4 to round out WARHAWKS  with multiple hits.

The WARHAWKS defeated Southern Maine 16-5 today.  After scoring one run in their first at bat the WARHAWKS scored three runs in the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 6th and 8th innings on 19 hits. 

Matthew Roberts (1-1) got the start and pitched four innings giving up 2 runs, both earned, on four hits and striking out two.  Aaron Lietner relieved him pitching 2 innings surrendering 1 run (earned) on 3 hits with a strikeout.  Tom Kerndt (1 inn, 2 runs both unearned, 2 hits, 1 bb, 1 k) and Eric Schmitz (2 inn, 0 runs, 0 hits, 2 ks) finished the game.  Eleven WARHAWKS recorded hits.  Marty Herum paved the way going 5x5 with a double, triple and scoring 3 runs.  Samuel Keller went 4x5 with an rbi and run scored.  Dylan Friend (2x2, dbl, 2 rbi, 2 rs) and Andrew Bauer (2x5, dbl, 2 rbi, 2 rs) rounded out those with multiple hits.  Tim Conroy had a two run home run.  JT Schneider (1), David Cladis (2), Steve Bartlein (1), Mike Mierow (1) and Fred Gromalack (1) also had RBIs. 

This concludes the WARHAWKS Florida trip.  They return home and will play a double hitter in Ripon 3/31.

Kind of stealing this idea off the basketball board, but with it being the middle of the off-season, maybe it will draw up some interest.  The WIAC is putting together an All Time team for each of the different sports it sponsors in recognition of their 100 year anniversary. 

Any thoughts on what the baseball team would look like?

Here are some guys that I feel would be deserving:

P-Jarrod Washburn-Oshkosh
P-Jordan Zimmerman-Stevens Point
P-Brady Endl-Whitewater

P-Bill Verbrick-Stevens Point
P-Ryan Callahan-Whitewater
P-Andy Kimball-Oshkosh

C-Casey Kopitzke-Oshkosh
1B-Jeff Donovan-Whitewater
1B-Craig Lieder-Oshkosh
2B-Jeremy Jirschele-Oshkosh
SS-Tim Jorgensen-Oshkosh
SS-Vinnie Rottino-La Crosse
3B-Terry Jorgensen-Oshkosh
3B-Aaron Richartz-Oshkosh
OF-Chris Delarwelle-Oshkosh

OF-Jeff Zappa-Oshkosh
OF-Nolan Fadness-Oshkosh
OF-Scott Mann-Oshkosh
OF-Pat Tobiasz-Whitewater
UT-Vince Mancuso-Oshkosh
UT-Seth Maier-Stout


Not sure how many of these guys will actually make it, but I thought it was a start.  Obviously I am missing a few guys, so who are they?
The bolded guys are guys actually names to the list that was released today.

Btw-BigPoppa, nice call on Wickman and Gantner, as they also made the list.  Unfortunately Hinske was omitted.

There are ALWAYS going to be arguments as to players being "snubbed" but two I feel truly deserved to be on the list were Nolan Fadness and Scott Mann from UWO.  They were both named to the All Conference team all four years of their career, just like Jordan Stine.

Where's Koback?  Point only has one player on the list how about Wiczek he was player of the year in the nation?  How about that lefty from Whitewater on world series team?  Toma something he was lights out.

Kevin Tomasiewicz was 35-5 for his career and 4 of the losses came in one season.

Oshkosh does have 16 of the 27 which is well represented and isn't surprising considering the way they dominated the conference for as long as they did.

However the Stine/Fadness comparison favors Stine.  Stine's career BA was .381 (229 hits), Fadness was .335 (200 hits).  Stine had  .400 and .397 seasons.  Fadness best two were .352 and .333.  Stine has 145 RBI, Fadness 99.  Stine had 305 total bases in his career, Fadness 279.  Stine's best SL% was .636, Fadness's best was .610 and Stine's worst season (.466) was better than any of Fadness's other three (.438, .400, .425).  While they played different positions making it harder to compare fielding numbers Stine's error rate was 1 every 58.33 chances (350/6) and Fadness's was 1 every 17.06 chances (546/32).   While both were 4 time all conference selections Stine clearly had the better career numbers.

I'm not saying Fadness shouldn't have been on the team and if he had been selected I'd have no problem with it.  I'm just suggesting that he shouldn't have been selected at the expense of Stine.   I wasn't able to locate any career stats for Mann.

As you indicated you can make an argument for many others.
