CDD3 -
Thank you for the SCIAC schedule information. 
Any idea what is happening on March 17?  It shows Chapman playing Occidental and La Verne? 

It looks wrong also on the Chapman site and SCIAC site. Looks like a error that has not been corrected yet. I have a hardcopy Chapman schedule that shows playing March 17 DH with La Verne
Playing Occidental Feb 17 and DH on Feb 18.

La Verne has not posted their 2012 schedule yet. 

The Occidental site has Redlands scheduled on Feb. 17 and 18.   The Redlands site has the same.  It appears that Chapman needs to reschedule the Occidental series.  The SCIAC schedule shows Chapman playing 4 games from 1PM through 9PM - now that would be quite a feat!

The Chapman baseball schedule has been corrected.

The Chapman baseball schedule has been corrected.

Still looks strange. Not sure about the Occidental game for 2/17, 2/18. Redlands and Occidental schedules show them playing each other these days. So who is right? Chapman schedule shows them playing Occidental on those days also.

OXY schedule now looks crazy on 2/17, 2/18 now.

http://www.oxyathletics.com/sports/bsb/2011-12/schedule

Do we need the Cal Tech guys to fix the schedule for Oxy, SCIAC, Chapman and Redlands...

[dahlby]

I advised the Chapman SID of the schedule situation and he made the corrections on the web site. That is what I go by.
Maybe you should contact the web master for the SCIAC board...I don't know what else to do. But, the school's individual web sites are probably the best to go by, as long as the coach's have kept their SID's in the loop.

[CrashDavisD3]

So if Chapman's website is correct then Redlands & Oxy sites must be wrong then....

Thanks !!

It appears the conflict on the SCIAC schedule for the weekend of Feb. 17 - 18 has been resolved.  Occidental is scheduled to play Redlands and is NOT scheduled to face Chapman at all during the season.  Chapman adds a game versus Cal State San Marcos.  Based on the previous success of the "in-region" teams Chapman will face in 2012, Chapman's SOS may be even higher than it was in 2011 (SOS rank #9 of 370).

High SOS is key for 2012 for Chapman. They will now be in the much stronger Pool C bids. In the past they were in the weaker Pool B bids. Chapman can not win a Pool A SCIAC AQ bid in 2012. Chapman should be strong again if they remain injury free in 2012. They should be back at the West Regional again.

REVISED SCIAC SCHEDULED

SCIAC Baseball starts with Cal Tech on January 21, 2012 and ends on May 5, 2012 with Redlands/Chapman playing a double header

The poll also lists La Verne.  That is 5 teams from a conference of 9 all nationally ranked.  That's a pretty strong conference!

Only 2 will make it to the playoffs...Conference winner will get the Pool A and then the others will fight for a Pool C bid. Chapman in 2012 can NOT get a Pool A bid. SCIAC looks like the strongest conference in the Nation.
