BB: WIAC: Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

[ShineTime]

Is Platteville for real I would have to say they are and have really good chance of making regionals.  Unfortunately the wiac isn't getting 4 teams.

Game One:

Platteville: 3
WARHAWKS (25-5, 13-4): 2

The WARHAWKS jumped out to a 2-0 lead with single runs in the first and second innings.  Trey Cannon's RBI single accounted for the run in the first inning and Steve Chamberlain matched that accounting for the second inning run.  The Pioneers tied the game with a pair of runs in the fifth inning both coming with two outs.  The Pioneers scored the winning run, unearned, in the seventh.  The WARHAWKS could only generate seven hits in the game and stranded runners in scoring position in the first, second, fifth, sixth and eighth innings.  Additionally two WARHAWKS base runners were thrown out at the plate.   

Pitching: Lake Bachar (L, 4-1): 6 IP, 11 H, 3 R, 2 ER, 0 BB, 3 K; Donnie Manke: 3 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 3 K.

Hitting: Daytona Bryden: 2x3, 2B; Steve Chamberlain: 1x5, 1 RBI; Mikole Pierce: 1x2, 1 RS; Trey Cannon: 1x4, 1 RBI; Nick Kuhlman: 1x3, 1 RS.

Game Two:

Platteville: 2
WARHAWKS (26-5, 14-4): 5

Casey Power's RBI double in the third inning drove in pair of runs and staked the WARHAWKS to the early lead.  But the Pioneers got both of those runs back with RBI singles in the fourth and fifth innings tying the game 2-2.  The WARHAWKS took the lead for good in the sixth by scoring a pair on Adam Gregory's RBI single and a fielders choice.  A pair of fielding errors by the Pioneer infield allowed the WARHAWKS to score the fifth run in the seventh.

Pitching: Mike Nompeggi: 5 IP, 7 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 5 K; Austin Finn (W, 1-0): 2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 0 K; John Olejnczek: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 1 K; Andrew Lowe (S, 2): 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 1 K.

So now if you win one time in a four game series you are considered "for real" by the one AND ONLY Shinetime? 

Well if that is the case, at least now I understand why you think UWO is "better than their record would indicate" since they also won one time in four attempts against Whitewater.

Remaining games:

WHITEWATER (26-5, 14-4): @ Stevens Point (2), @ Stout (4)
La Crosse (22-10, 15-7): @ Platteville (2)
Platteville (21-13, 12-6): La Crosse (2), @ Oshkosh (4)
Stevens Point (21-11, 10-8): WHITEWATER (2), Superior (4)
Oshkosh (20-14, 10-10): Platteville (4)

Point stuns whitewater 3 to 2 in game 1.  What a difference a week makes.

I wouldn't say "stuns" is the correct word....  Amazing what happens when Beau pitches closer to the norm and Point plays better defense behind him.

BTW-I thought you said Whitewater can "flat out rake?"  They must have left them in the shed or on the bus in Game #1.  Difference in the game in my opinion, was Whitewater being caught stealing three different times in five attempts.  That is pretty much like only betting to bat eight times instead of nine.

Speaking of "rakes," La Crosse put up 20 runs against Platteville's "great pitching staff" in a 20-1 victory.

The results mean La Crosse and Whitewater are in a virtual tie atop the WIAC standings going into Game #2, although Whitewater holds the edge in the all important loss column by two games.

I bet whitewater will mash game 2 no idea who point sends out seeing they put so much emphasis on beating St Scholastica Sunday if Daniels goes game 2 Platteville will have shot to win cejka is virtually unbeatable so good thing they didn't put him out game 1

Well, at least you are consistent!!!!!

Point leads Whitewater 9-0 after three innings and La Crosse leads Platteville 8-1 after five innings...  (Hall go the start for Platteville, not Daniels.)

[ShineTime]

Well my guess is point more than likely locked down a regional berth now unless they **** the bed at superior wasn't counting on them looking like the best team in d3 today. 

[Westside]

This is comedy gold. Watching ShineTime's predictions get worse and worse throughout the year, and cubs always there to put him down.

You two should have a talk-radio show.

Well if Platteville is "for real" after winning one out of four against Whitewater, what does that make Point since they won two out of four against the same Whitewater team?

Someone has to point out the error of his ways!!!!

Btw-I'm not putting him down.... just pointing out his errors, again and again and again and again and again......

[ShineTime]

So whose the most dangerous wiac team come regionals.  I have no idea what to think now after today other than whitewater didn't throw their top 2.  I don't like potential point vs lacrosse match up in wiac tournament cejka is so dominate

Whitewater stumbles even once against Stout and Point won't have to worry about Cejka.

Whitewater sweeps Stout and they get #1 seed and host WIAC Tournament.  Whitewater wins three out of four, and La Crosse hosts and gets #1 seed by virtue of taking three out of four from Point, while Whitewater split with them.

[cubs]

As long as Platteville splits with UWO this weekend, they wrap up the fourth and final spot in the WIAC Tournament.  UWO needs to take three out of four to "steal" the fourth and final spot.

So who do you have Shine?  The "for real" Platteville to split, or the "better than their record" UWO to take three out of four?
