I can tell you with 100 percent certainty though that after point lost 3 of 4 at lacrosse and then lost two vs whitewater I wasn't alone in thinking there was no way they'd make regionals. Either way still a ton of work ahead and hopefully point will take advantage of the 6 team regional. Any way point goes kowalke game 1. I don't think they will based on fact beau has shown he's a warrior and could probably throw again pretty quick.

I wasn't talking about that... I was going back to when you thought they wouldn't finish in the Top 3 in the WIAC standings because they didn't "address the catcher position" or have any experience coming back to pitch.

Whitewater implodes! Blows 7-0 lead in last three innings, gives up 5 in the ninth to lose to CUC on a single, groundout, fly out, walk, walk, walk, balk, double, single.

UWL bounced Carthage of Chicago from the tourney by a score of 10-3, but will the pitching hold up ? We need two wins Sunday.

I must apologize. I said UWL defeatrd Carthage. It was Concordia of Chicago. My apologies to anyone I may have offended. Concordia played great baseball, and is worthy of our respect. Again, I am sorry for the error.

Point is ice cold at the plate they are down to 6 outs not looking good.

Well the head coach has Carthage ties lol. Surprised that CUC made the run they did after they were 8-11 at one point during the season. Going 25-4 the rest of the way is tremendous. Way to make the NACC proud CUC!

Webster eliminates Point, 4-2. The Pointers leave the bases loaded in the 9th.

Point has so much to replace for next year. Hoping watson can return to be at top of staff and that kowalke can pitch consistently next year. Guessing Strommen Kranz and guckinberg will all need to play major roles. Greco more than likely moves to short. No idea where the power will come from. Either way this regional disaster is hard to swallow feel like point had golden opportunity more than ever being shipped to 6 team regional.

Let's go la crosse give me and the kids more reason to go to appleton. Not the same without a wisconsin team or St Thomas in it.

So do the WARHAWKS. We only return third base and center field. We lose Grove but do return several pitchers and expect Austin Jones to be healthy enough to contribute. The staff has a lot of holes to fill.

I think whitewater has a big edge though over point with returning pitchers. If watson is eligible and himself I think it would be even. I think some of points position players could step up such as Kranz strommen and guckinberg maybe schultz at 2nd perhaps gerber moves to 2nd I have no idea all I know is it will be a long time before point has a group of seniors that could rake like these guys.
