WOW! Heart-breaking loss for the Redhawks.

Was anyone at the game to see the elbow and ejection? Was it legit?

Bo lost his cool on the basketball court a few times too.

Why can't Gillespie discipline these guys. 

Better Dead Than Red.

Must mean you'd rather lose than win, with the amount of games the Lawrence Baseball team has won over the past 20+ years.....  Feel free to make the MWC Tournament at least once, much less the NCAA Tournament.

Bo Johnson is the topic.

Don't think it was legit.  The 2nd base ump said he wouldn't have thrown him out.  Bo was just bracing for contact with Evanoff, but the ump didn't see it that way.  Just so happens to be the same ump that threw him out of a game last year.  Me thinks he has it out for him.  Was pretty weak ejection considering the importance of the game.

It looks like three WIAC players will be suiting up in the Northwoods League this summer.  UW-W's Adam Dominick will be pitching for the LaCrosse Loggers and centerfielder Jordan Stine is playing for the Wisconsin Woodchucks.  UW-O's Mickey Faddness is on the Eau Claire Express roster.  He drove in their only run last night in a 2-1 loss to Madison.

FYI: there is a D3 summer wood bat league chat on the National board

Can anybody preview the WIAC for me?

With two teams in the top 11 (UWSP #7 and UWO #11) it appears that it is going to be quite a battle for the conference.

How does Whitewater look? Who appears to the the #4 team (assuming that UWSP, UWO and UWW are 1-3)?

BP-
Oshkosh returns 8 out of their 9 starters from last season, only having to replace Schwebke in CF (although he put up some nice numbers as a 1st Team All WIAC selection .355 BA 17 2B, 4 3B, 10 HR.) 

The Titans weakness, may be their pitching staff.  They only return one pitcher who threw more than 30 innings last year (Jeremy Reubens-51.2 IP.)  They will need to replace three All WIAC pitchers (Adam Bretl, Brian Gerl, and Adam Roos) and two other seniors in Cal Stanke (drafted in the 15th round by the LA Dodgers) and Brad Bolton who accounted for over 70% of both the teams victories (25 out of 35) and innings pitched (304 of the 413 IP.)  To say they will need some freshman to step up would be an understatement.....

As far as the 4th team, I would have to think that Stout has the inside track at this time.  (Depending on other schools recruits, I may be swayed.)  They return 1st Team All WIAC OF Eric Johnson, along with Honorable Mention All WIAC selections at C, SS, and P.
