Looking forward to this week's matchups. It will be interesting to see if any more separation is created, or if we see more splits.

LaCrosse threw Boushley 8 innings on Thursday.

Stevens Point takes game one over Warhawks 4-3. erikao. Throws a complete
game and Jones takes the loss.

Could warhawks possibly go undefeated this year in conference? I could see point maybe pulling a game off if Erickson is on.  I was kidding in basketball not so much in baseball this year. Probably the worst the wiac has been in 20 years top to bottom but whitewater being so good helps.
ShineTime with the "kiss of death" once again for Whitewater....  Point knocks off Whitewater 4-3 in the opener of their four game series.

Erickson gives up three runs (all earned) on six hits and three walks, while striking out six to give Jones his first loss of the season.  Point did all the damage in the 6th inning off of Jones, as they scored four runs on four hits and a pair of walks to turn a 3-0 deficit into a 4-3 lead.

I wouldn't exactly say Erickson was "on," as I have seen him throw better in the past, but he did keep the Whitewater hitters off balance enough to avoid giving up many extra basehits (just one double.)

It's a big win obviously and would be awesome if point could get a split however the only way I can see point beating a top 10 team is with Erickson on mound.  Not saying point doesn't have some good arms just not good enough yet to hold down a rough whitewater squad.  Like I had said I felt Erickson had best chance to beat them.  What a great day outside for baseball

Lavery and McMahon do the job on the mound as La Crosse sweeps Stout 9-3 and 5-0....  Will be interesting to see who starts with Stahulak tomorrow for the Eagles.

The first and still most accurate description of the D3 Championship BeltTM thread.

badgerwarhawk

WARHAWKS: 3, 6
Stevens Point: 4, 1

Everything looked good for the first five innings of game one.   Though we weren't hitting very well the WARHAWKS managed to eke out three runs and Jones had faced only two hitters over the limit walking one and allowing a single hit.  Krause's single in the first brought home Bryden staking the WARHAWKS to a 1-0 lead.  Bryden's infield ground out in the fifth brought in a run and was followed by Fleischman's RBI single pushing the lead to 3-0.  Then the bottom fell out in the sixth.  The Pointer bats heated up with a double and four singles and Jones walked a pair so by the time the dust had settled the Pointers had taken the lead 4-3.  After that Erickson did the rest allowing only a pair of singles one of which was erased in a double play and retiring the final two on strikeouts.  Jones took his first loss of the season pitching allowing 7 hits, 4 earned runs while walking 3 and striking out 9 in 7.2 innings.   Nompleggi recorded the final out with a strike out.  Bryden was 2x4 with the only WARHAWKS extra base hit (2B), scored a run and had an RBI.  Krause was also 2x4 with an RBI and Fleischman recorded an RBI on a single hit.  Erickson surrendered 3 earned runs on 6 hits with 6 strikeouts and 3 walks in a complete game W. 

Renz put win number five on record in game two.  The righty went 8 innings giving up a single earned run on just three hits while striking out eight and walking a pair.  White's two run home run opened the scoring in the third and Aldridge's solo shot in the fifth gave the WARHAWKS a 3-0 lead.   This time the Pointers failed to score in the sixth and the WARHAWKS added three more runs in the seventh with a two run home run from Bryden and Fleischman's triple that was misplayed allowing him to score unearned.  The Pointers scored their only run in the seventh when Iioncile led off with a solo home run.  Nompleggi relieved Renz in the ninth and after striking out the first two Pointers faced walked a hitter and allowed single.  After an infield ground ball on an 0-2 pitch failed to get the force at second the Pointers had loaded the bases.  But Nompleggi stifled the rally with a pop up out to second.  The WARHAWKS offense knocked out 14 hits including three home runs and a double.  Bryden stayed hot going 2x4 with a run scored and 2 RBIs.  Fleischman was also 2x4, scored and drove in a run.  Krause (2x4, 1 RS) and Chamberlain (2x5) had multiple hits as did Aldridge (2x4, 2 RS, 2 RBIs).  White had 2 RBI on his home run.

Kawlewski is not the answer...struggles to throw strikes and when he does, gets hit around the park.  I haven't seen one reason why Jirschele feels he's the number 2 starter right now.
Kawlewski with a complete game shutout as Stevens Point defeats UWO 4-0 in Game #1 of a DH today.  Kawlewski gave up just four hits and struck out six while walking three in the 116 pitch outing.
Just in case this was missed the first time.... 

Kawlewski holds Whitewater to two runs on eight hits over seven innings while striking out eight and walking three in Point's 6-3 victory over the Warhawks.

So does beating the #3 team in the nation according to d3baseball.com justify Jirschele having Kawlewski as a weekend starter?

I didn't know anyone needed justification from me over their decisions.  Kawlewski has definitely figured it out lately but his stats still aren't impressive and I still don't have much confidence in consistency from him.  As far as Jirchele goes, I was in the camp that he would be a phenomenal recruiter from the start giving his family background.  I haven't seen that yet, the top D3 guys in the state are all going to Whitewater and La Crosse.  Oshkosh has seemed to pick it up the past 2 years as well.  What I thought would be a deep pitching staff hasn't materialized from UWSP, Jirshele needs to get some help there for future seasons.  Not making the postseason isn't a good season at UWSP, and this season looks that way unless they have a great run at the conference tourney.

Nobody (especially someone who has accomplished as much in the game of baseball as Jirschele) needs justification from you, but when you are quick to criticize something, don't be surprised when someone points out that your criticism might be flawed.

In a short season like D3 baseball, one or two outings can make it so your overall stats aren't impressive regardless of what you do the rest of the season.  With that said, I'm guessing Kawlewski is still in the Top 10 in the WIAC in ERA at the end of the weekend despite his rough start.  That seems to be pretty respectable for your #2 starter (unless you are Whitewater!!!)  Take a look at his stats once Point returned from Florida.  Three starts, 22 IP, 5 runs (all earned,) 17 K's/8 BB's.  Maybe not "ace" material, but far from "getting hit around the park."

As far as the rest of your post, I'm not going to comment on it for the simple fact that that he's in his second year at the helm.  I'm the type that tries not to make "knee-jerk" reactions.

Knee jerk reaction you say....almost 2 full recruiting classes isn't a knee jerk reaction to me. 

I'm not impressed with Jirschele, it's an opinion.  I had high hopes when he got the job, he hasn't improved the program.  Pretty simple thought process there.

As far as Kawlewski goes, he struggled mightily in beginning of the season.  I don't have confidence in his consistency.
