Oshkosh's roster is up. Perhaps Rubens will pitch this year after all. Besides that, no surprises.

Good recruiting class for the Titans. Is Christensen the same all-stater from several years ago? Pretty sure it is, but he's the only Titan I'm not positive about.

Anyone else have their UWO/Augsburg feed die? UWO was leading 8-1 (Top 7) in Game 1. Kyle Kannenberg had a one-hitter going. EDIT: Nevermind ... got it.

Could you give an update on these games?  I can't seem to get the audio to work at all.

UWO won Game 1, 8-1, behind a two-hitter by Kannenberg.

My feed went down for good in the 4th of Game 2 with Augsburg up, 3-1, on a three-run bomb to left in the 3rd off frosh P Sean Grabig, who finished the inning and was lifted for soph Luke Westphal. Have not heard how it ended.

EDIT: UWO came back to win, 5-4. The Augsburg site has the details. Kanny finished the day with a win and a save. Also, UWO RF Travis Helland left the second game after colliding with Mickey Fadness on a flair.

La Crosse roster is online. A transfer or two and lots of frosh following last year's senior-laden squad.

Any word on how they are doing with their long term fund raising.  I know they've raised enough to play this year but what about next year and the year after, etc.?

Where is Evan Matson projected in the UWO rotation.  I was surprised he didn't pitch at all in this DH.

Is anyone else concerned that kannenberg is going to blow out this year???  first games and he already was used in back to back games.  That's not easy on the arm to recover from, and I know they have a nice layoff until they play again, but this type of over use seems to be the trend lately at UWO, and then all the big guns are too worn down by the end of the year to contribute like they are capable of!  I hope for kannenberg's sake that they don't do that to him all season long!

Typical Tommy overusing his pitchers early in the season.  He's good at destroying guys arms just look at Reubens.  He did the same crap with him having him close than start and throw a complete game.  Anyways it looks like another year of no live stats for the Pointers.  It's killing me not knowing how they did against St. Olaf today.  You go on D3 scoreboard and there's no final for that game even though the first game was at 4:30 but every other score in the country is reported.  Anyone have a final and recap of who pitched?  I'm extremely excited about the WIAC this year and really believe Oshkosh and Whitewater should both be in the Top 25 and are being overlooked.  Point will have a difficult time having 4 games at both Whitewater and Oshkosh.  How about Jirschele transferring to Point?  His girlfriend must be something special to pack it up and head to Point with all his brother did at Oshkosh.  I'm definitely happy he's a Pointer though.

Nothing wrong with a split against SOC, but I'm surprised UWSP was shut out in Game 2. I didn't think UWSP would be blanked all year. Finals were 13-5 UWSP and 5-0 SOC. EDIT: 4-0.

SOC has a paragraph about the games so far.

I was thinking the same thing about being shut out.  They found a way to score 3 or 4 off Schuld last year at Regionals and I'm doubting this pitcher is as good.  Typical Point though scoring 13 in one game and 0 the next.  Happens year in and year out.  I was shocked last year when Licht from St. Thomas shut them out at regionals.  He was nothing special.  I want to see a box score to see who started.  I know Point has some new guys including Tuschen and Jirschele but I read Kevin Thomas had 2 hits in the loss.

I believe he is in their top four, along with Kannenberg, Westphal and Grabig.  If one more pitcher would have been used, it likely would have been him.

But you have to admit that the username is a winner!  I know I lol'd the first time I read it.

[pickleshiner]

Here's the deal with Point this year that I'm concerned about.  I think Peebs is going to try too hard to make everyone happy by getting everyone playing time instead of just trying to win each and every game.  I know you can never have too much talent but I think Point actually has the most quality depth they've had in years.  It's great if you have injuries but sucks when you have 4-5 great players on your bench.  As far as my username, I'm going to be shining it if Point ever plays to their potential.  I set my self up for disappointment again though believing this was going to be Point's best team since 05 and than they lose to an average St. Olaf squad.  I know it's early but IMO it was a shocking loss.
