BB: MIAC: Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

[BigPoppa]

Is there a website that lists the schedule for the Metrodome? I'd love to see the daily line-up of games to maybe catch one here and there when I get a chance.

Any ideas?

Check this out for some info. Not a great layout, but the info is there. Hope this helps!

Love it!  Can't wait to start taking in games this week.

did you get out to any games... what have you seen thus far that is interesting?

MIAC 8-0 so far this season, pretty good start.

I've only gotten to see the St. Olaf and Bethel DHs.

-- Hughes looked really good in the first game for the Oles; look for him to have a much better year this time around

-- Bethel took care of business; nothing really special about them though from what I saw. Slick can hit, but we all knew that. Their pitching looks pretty average, which is also what I expected.

-- Wish I could have seen the St. John's game. From what I've heard and saw from the box score, they're going to be a pretty tough team this year, especially adding a pretty good recruiting class.

-- Mac handled Wartburg pretty easily it seemed. Murrey throws complete game with 9k's, seems odd burning him in a complete game this early non-conf, but wins are wins I guess. On box scores, they look pretty good beating a team with ranking votes.

Look for a playoff scramble at the end, other than St. Thomas who else looks like they can lock a playoff spot early. Mac looks like they'll at least win 1 game a series and Olaf's youth may cost them a few it shouldn't lose. Ready for another fine MIAC season.

Nice split to open the season for the Augies, respectable on the mound for game one, surprised on the lack of offense though.

Concordia swept Elmhurst late last night. 6-3 and 2-0. Concordia plays Edgewood tonight at 10:00.  EC has live stats: http://www.sidearmstats.com/edgewood/baseball/

Good Luck to the Tommies as they start their title defense today; especially good luck to O-dog.  Great guy, great coach, great baseball mind, and in my opinion, has been doing much more head coaching than outsiders give him credit for over his stint as pitching coach.

Wanna know how to lose credibility as an announcer? Claim that a 380 ft shot to center would be gone at St. Thomas, where the wall is 475.

What idiot announcer made that claim?

What idiot announcer made that claim?

I don't know his name, but whoever the color commentator is for St. Scholastica's webcast.  I was watching with a few alumni; we all laughed.

[MIACLUV]

I've heard that guy in the past, its actually enjoyable when CSS plays the MIAC squads to get some radio coverage no matter how ridiculous most of the stuff spewed from his mic is. I actually got to listen to the Hamline game online and there were times where there had to be 2-3 batters go by while he rambled on, but for a d3 program guy he's pretty solid. So you know, from seeing him in the booth at the dome, he exactly what you think he looks like!

[MIACLUV]

Too bad Schuld had to stick around in that game last night would have made going to the Gopher vs St. Thomas game much more exciting!

[Iluvd3BBALL]

I agree, I still think I want to take in that game anyways.  I think St. Thomas should handle the UofM's sorry excuse for a program.  Why can't they get the best players in the state to stick around?

[formman]

Maybe because they are tired of all the coaches kids and the coaches best buddies kids getting to play.

The UofM has not recruited a Minneapolis Public School kid in forever and there have been some decent ball players.

Sad...
