BB: NACC: Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference

[baseman201]

Man, how in the crap does that happen?

Did IL Wesleyen have a big inning or was it little by little?

[DiceT]

THE NAC website says Concordia and Dominican played to a tie.  Ties are lame.

[WLCALUM83]

Per IL Wesleyan site, virtually all the CCIW squad's runs were scored in the last 3 innings. The press release indicates IL Wesleyan used 9 pitchers in the game. (Box scores aren't available yet.)

4/25 Projections:

In-conference:  Edgewood sweeps Marian.

Non-conference:  North Central over Benedictine
                            Concordia-Chicago over U of Chicago (barring a letdown over yesterday's loss.)
                            Concordia-WI over Cardinal Stritch
                            Elmhurst over Aurora

(Provided everyone can dodge all the raindrops.)

Honestly, that absolutely sucks

Being up 8-0 on the #22 team in the nation and losing.  Plus they are finally ranked #8 in the region and have a chance to beat a top 25 team.....

Ahhh, that really does suck, but life goes on and they have a game to win today.  They need a strong end of the season going into the tournament.

And I agree with all of WLALUMs picks

           Rockford and Lakeland split. (Game day re-adjusted on this one.)

[WLCALUM83]

North Central's still batting in 2nd, up 3-2 and Benedictine's making a pitching change. (Ben's starting pitcher gave up 4 walkes in 2nd, per Cardinal broadcaster).

[WLCALUM83]

North Central put a 7-spot up in the bottom of the 2nd. North Central 7, Benedictine 2.

[WLCALUM83]

Non-conference final just in:

North Central 13, Benedictine 4.

Per University of Chicago website--the Maroon's game with Concordia-Chicago won't be played today. No make-up date set up for that as yet.

Elmhurst/Aurora also postponed.

[baseman201]

Marion and Edgewood postponed til tomarrow.  But lookin at the forecast, odds are it will be postponed again.
