Mr. Ypsi

Go Augie!!

Let's have an all-CCIW final (even if the home team forgot to show up :'().

Augie 3 - Luther 0  thru 3 innings

Augie had the first 5 base runners reach base...2-0, no outs, bases loaded and they failed to score again in the inning.  It was a great chance to break the game open, but still a good start for the offense.

Augie 3 - Luther 0

Top 5th; runner on 1st; no outs; top of the order

Augie 6 - Luther 0

Still top 5th; one out

Any updates on the Augie Luther game? It's been quite awhile since the last update. Hopefully, there will be 2 CCIW teams in tomorrow's finals.

I got my own answer. It's Augie 6 Luther 1 with Augie at bat in the top of the 9th.

Mr. Ypsi

The scoreboard shows it as a 6-1 final - all-CCIW final(s)!!

Congrats to both Carthage and Augie for making it to the regional final.  I can't imagine that Augie has any pitching left after fighting back through the loser's bracket since the first day.  Carthage has a distinct advantage in that department. 

However, Augie's young pitchers have really come through this week, and hopefully they can keep it up for a couple more games.  I guarantee that Carthage thinks they already have this regional won, so hopefully Augie can come out and surprise them in the first game tomorrow and force a 2nd game, where anything can happen.

Carthage won 3 of th 4 previous games this yearagainst Augie, when the teams were playing on even terms. Carthage has played 2 games in the last two days, while Augie has played 4. Losing that 1st game is in the tourney really kills a team's chances, but Carthage has pretty much proven they are the class of the CCIW and has to be the prohibitive favorite to wrap this one up in the noon game.

Whatever happens today it has been a pleasure to see #6 see Augie prove they belong by reaching the final day in the Central Region tourney.

You obviously have NO IDEA what you're talking about.  If you think that Augie or Cory or Adam (Carthage coaches), or anyone in the Carthage program is going to come into the noon game thinking that they've already won, you're a complete moron.  You don't win 18 in a row by looking past teams.  You don't get 90 First team CCIW members since 1989 by being complacent.  You don't win 7 Regional Coach of the Year awards by not preparing your players.  You don't have the success that Carthage has had since the early 90's by not being focused and ready to play every time you step between the lines.  ESPECIALLY when you have a chance to go to the College World Series!!

Mr. Ypsi

Per the scoreboard, Augie up 2-1 after 3.5.  So far pitching seems to be holding up, as each team has only 4 hits.

Carthage is up 5-3 in the 7th according to both D3Baseball.com and the Carthage Athletics webpage.

Carthage wins 5-4!!!!   


Ruffie gets the win, Husing gets the save by working the 8th and 9th.  Augie got ejected in the 6th.


Way to go RED!!

Congratulations to Carthage on the victory.  Best of luck as you represent the CCIW!

Congrats to the Redmen. At 17-11, I don't know who saw this coming. 19 in a row later its off to Appleton! I had a friend at the games giving me updates. He said Augie got ejected he thought in the 4th inning. Apparently he didn't agree with the balls and strikes that were being called. He went out to the mound and gathered the infield in, waited for the home plate ump to come break it up, and then just let him have it.  Augs also got a gatorade bath after the game! Congrats to Carthage. They play Friday at 1:15 according to the hotline against the New England Regional Champ.  Final 8 fellas, keep it going
