Oh i agree that Keene had to beat Eastern once, and maybe get to that Saturday of the LEC final.  If they had lost to Eastern and Eastern won the conference then they still might of got in.  We all kinda thought that the LEC was going to get two teams, just turns out that RIC took one of those spots by winning the tournament.  You kinda have to congratulate RIC as they went out and earned it, if you win the tournament you dont have to worry. Put yourself in that position where you rely on the NCAA anything can happen.  How about a UFC Dana White (from boston actually before moving to vegas) quote..." Dont leave it in the hands of the judges".  Keene and Amherst did by not taking care of business and really have no one to blame but themselves.  Would i of put MIT in??  Heck no not at all, but its not my decesion.

fotoguy,dont look at Mitchells stats unless you are gonna dig deeper than the numbers.Mitchell won the WEAKEST conference in the nation oh boy !Are they going to regionals while my team is already home ? Yep .Cortland could pitch their bullpen by commitee and beat Mitchell.They were taken down to the wire in championship by Southern Vermont.As for Cortland being down this year,what is an off year for C-Land?OMG Mitchell is the number one hitting team according to D3 boards YAHOO!!Mitchell doesnt have a starter on their team that could play for J Brown at C-Land.I watched the NECC for their first 2 years and it is a terrible conference,and it didnt get any better just because it now has an AQ.

I agree with Tarheel on this one.  There is no way and i mean no way you can even compare Mitchell with anyone else in any of the regionals.  I would bet that of the 58 teams?? maybe 64 im not sure that made it, Mitchell would have to be either the worst team or maybe the second worse.  That conference is absolute sham. 

I think that RIC has a good chance of beating MIT in the first game and facing the Winner of Tufts/ Bridgewater

Surprised to see 1 player named to both the first & second team for different spots. Tip fairchild at one time was a lock for Utility Play or something like that and would be named for both his pitching and hitting. Was Shawn Gilblair, as great a player as he was, ever get named to two positions?

Just wondering.

Walsh good choice

Schult eh not so much.  I guess the best of not a great pitching year in the LEC.

Chedwik from USM a no brainer

I was surprised to see Pelky get first team pitcher, and then i went back looked at his stats.  I was shocked, i didnt realize that he had such good numbers.  I mean the kid did it all from start, to relief, and i think he kinda snuck under the radar of the LEC or at least my radar.

Overall not a bad job by the LEC.... Congrats to all players that were rewarded.



RIC blows out MIT in the first game of the regional.  A MIT team that does not belong over keene or amherst.  Go RIC make a great run!!!

We might see both Tufts and MIT go down as I think they should. The NESCAC is I think overrated this year, but maybe I speak too soon. I ain't exactly been right lately.

KSCer MIT is NEWMAC with wheaton, babson etc. 

And yes NESCAC overrated.

The fact that MIT got  pasted by RIC yesterday 12-2 does not look good for them.  NCAA messed up on that Keene should of been in or Amherst

LEC Fan

By the sounds of it Keene or Amherst should have automatically been selected to the World Series!! I can not believe the NCAA screwed this one up...how does a 29-14 Keene team and a 25-10 Amherst team get passed up for MIT?!? How dare they not pick Keene or Amherst...what were they thinking? How could they possibly do what they did? It is unfathomable!!! Word...the world is coming to an end!!!

They didn't get picked...they didn't win their conference tournament...better luck next year!

GO ANCHORMEN!

Keene and Amherst had they chance on the field to make it to the regionals. Win the Conference Pool A AQ bid and your in. If you dont, you could stay home or hope some committee will do the right thing to pick you...I say win it on the field

Oh i agree you need to win it on the field, and if you win you dont have to worry about it.  But, lets be honest here people MIT is a good team but not better than the other two teams we have been talking about.  My point was more the NCAA really thought that MIT was a good team as they put them in the 4 seed or upper half of seeds, and its looking like it might be a two and out for them.  Im just not impressed with MIT I guess

It is a bit dissapointing that KSC, (really do not follow Amherst), did not get an at large bid to NE Regionals, as KSC team could have had a good shot to do well at Whitehouse Field, however, Crash is correct, win the conference tourney and take it out of the hands of a bunch of unseen coaches.

Seems to me that the NEWMAC is given more credit then they are due.  They had 3 good teams but most conferences do also.  For example, St. Joes got hosed with the 6 seed, incredibly...behind MIT.  Thats simply stupid....the GNAC who had 3 good teams, (st joes split with suffolk and jwu, jwu won 3 of 4 vs suffolk and suffolk make the conference finals) compare them with the NEWMAC.  MIT even ahead of Babson was silly, let alone Amherst.  
I'm not saying Suffolk or JWU should have been considered for at at-large bid, they shouldn't but neither should MIT.

Yes, the Auburn Regional seedings are googy as well.  Who are these behind the seen people making these decisions??? ::)
