Titans lost 9-3 to Wash U last night.  They were up 3-0 after 6, but Wash scored 3 in the 7th, 1 in the 8th and 5 in the 9th.  Pretty much eliminates IWU from Pool C bid.

CCIW predictions this weekend

IWU over Augie 2-1
Carthage over NP 3-0
Millikin over NCC 3-0
Wheaton over Elmhurst 2-1

IWU's best chance(other than winning the tourney) is to have Carthage win the tourney and they finish second. I think Carthage is in either way, If Augie wins the tourney, Carthage gets in as a Pool C. They also need Wash U. to win the SLIAC tourney and ensure that only one SLIAC team gets in.

Baseball is not a game that builds character, it is a game that reveals it.

Carthage beat Chicago today 17-7. Backup short stop Seth Romano hit a 2 run home run to end the game in the 8th. Carthage was up 11-0 early on, and chicago battled back to make it an 11-7 game before Carthage got the bats going again. Great job by the Redmen to win these 3 non-conference games, compared to last year when we lost one to Marian and one to Chicago completely eliminating our chances of getting an at large bid last year.

Poppa...Wash U is in the UAA and they are a Pool B team.  I don't know how the Pool B scenario looks but hopefully they will get one of those so they don't become a Pool C team.

Thanks... my bad!

Carthage beat North Park today 11-1 after 7 innings because of the mercy rule. Couple errors by NP that Carthage really made them pay for. Evosovich started for Carthage and gave up one run in the first inning and then settled down nicely to remain unbeaten on the year.

Augie and IWU split today's games:

Game 1:  IWU 3, Augie 2

Two great pitching performances today from Augie's Kevin Kuntz (8.2 IP, 2 ER, 7 HA, 8 K) and IWU's Dave Dobosz (9 IP, 1 ER, 6 HA).  IWU won the game in the bottom of the ninth on a game-winning single by someone.

Game 2:  Augie 6, IWU 1

Augie scored 4 runs in the first inning.  Augie's Andrew Setter pitched a complete game and picked up his 7th win of the season.  His line:  7 IP, 1 ER, 6 HA, 0 BB, 3 K

Looks like a crazy game in Rock Island today.

Augustana 12, IWU 11  (10 innings)

IWU scored 2 runs in the top of the tenth and then Augustana came back and scored 3 in the bottom of the 10th to win it.  Adam Cosentino delivered the game-winning base hit with 2 outs in the bottom of the 10th.

Carthage won both games today, 11-3, and 10-0 in 7 innings because of the slaughter rule. That's all the details I know as of now

NPU got a taste of what it's going to take to compete with the big boys this past weekend. The Vikings just don't have the personnel to challenge a team like Carthage. Right now 2007 is looking promising, but 2006 is turning out to be a learning experience.

As I said the other day, Rome wasn't built in a day -- and neither will the NPU baseball program. But I'm still encouraged by what Luke Johnson has done thus far. This team is light-years beyond the disaster of the last few seasons at the Park.

Agreed... NPU is moving in the right direction and 2007 is looking very good for the Vikings. A full year of recruiting will also have a great impact on the program. They still have a shot to sneak into that last spot, but it is going to be tough and they will need some help. Millikin has two tough weekend left with IWU and Augie so I expect them to drop off a bit. If NPU sweeps Wheaton and takes 1 or 2 from IWU... you never know!

Does anyone know the dimensions of the fence at North Park? I don't remember from last year. It was also neat for a lot of the Carthage fans to watch Ozzie Guillen's son play for North Park. Some who were White Sox fans loved it. Most of them who are cubs fans were giving him an ear full after he made an error during the game at Carthage.
