BTW, Elmhurst swept Wheaton by a combined 57-36 - did they get their seasons mixed up?  Which sport were they playing?! ;D

Quite a series...here are the line scores from those games for your entertainment

Game 1:
Wheaton College..... 000  340       00 -   7 10  2
Elmhurst College....   110  0(11)0  04 - 17 18  4

Game 2:
Elmhurst College....   101   350   04 - 14 11  0
Wheaton College..... 111   070   00 - 10 17  3

Game 3:
Elmhurst College....   328   700   105 - 26 29  4
Wheaton College..... 330   008   401 - 19 27  3


45 runs on 58 hits in game 3!

Does anyone know what happened to Matt Price from Wheaton?  He was one of the stronger pitchers in the conference last year as a Jr. but has an ERA near 7.00 this season.

Augustana beat Millikin today 7-5 to complete the sweep according to the Millikin website.

BigPoppa

Carthage sweeps Lakeland College on Sunday 13-3 and 21-3.

Too bad the bats came alive a day late. Looks like we will have to win the CCIW tourney as it appear that our Pool C chances flew out the window by getting swept Friday/Saturday at IWU.

Anybody have in-region record of the Central Region teams?

North Central swept the 3 game series over North Park with an 18-5 victory today at NPU.

Wow, from 4 runs in 3 games to 34 runs in 2!  Was IWU's pitching that good or Lakeland's that bad?  (Or was it just one of those unexplainable things about streaky hitters?)

That's just baseball. If anyone ever figures it all out, please tell me so I can sleep at night. I'll admit that I was surprised by the three game sweep of Carthage, but I'll still take Carthage to win the CCIW tourney.

As much as this hurts to say, congrats to IWU on the sweep. With Carthage's top 3, I didn't think there was any chance of them getting swept. IWU will be the only team that will have a shot at an at large bid. I was at Carthage for a few innings of the second game yesterday. It was 80 degrees everywhere in kenosha except on Carthage's baseball field where it felt about 55. Lakeland's pitchers were obviously nothing special, and it was a great day for hitting with the wind blowing straight out to center field.

Here is the updated conference standings and remaining games:

School            CCIW       
Ill. Wesleyan  15-0      3 vs. Augie; 3 vs. Elmhurst
Carthage        9-5        1 vs. Elmhurst; 3 vs. Millikin; 3 vs. North Park
Augustana      9-6        3 vs. IWU; 3 vs. Wheaton
Elmhurst         8-6        1 vs. Carthage; 3 vs. NP; 3 vs. IWU
North Park      6-9        3 vs. Elmhurst; 3 vs. Carthage
North Central 5-10       3 vs. Wheaton; 3 vs. Millikin
Millikin            4-10       3 vs. Carthage; 3 vs. North Central; 1 vs. Wheaton
Wheaton        2-12      3 vs. North Central; 3 vs. Augustana; 1 vs. Millikin

IWU is practically a lock to host the tourney.  I also expect Carthage and Augie to be in as Elmhurst and NPU play each other and then EC plays IWU and NP plays Carthage.  NPU needs at least 2 of 3 vs. Elmhurst to get in and North Central is not completely out of it if they can take care of Wheaton and Millikin while NP and Elmhurst struggle.

Lots of different scenarios as the season winds down.

I see IWU #1; Carthage #2; Augie #3 and NP #4

I see IWU #1; Carthage #2; Augie #3 and NP #4  quoted from previous entry

Sorry, the 4th position is a toss up, Elmhurst, NCC or NPU can fit here

NCC and Elmhurst have the inside track, I only see NPU in there if the sweep Elmhurst and take 1 or 2 from Carthage.  These past two weeks have been a nightmare NPU was 11 and 10 at one time.


Good luck this week and hopefully get the games in on schedule.

Sit tight, hold down the fort and keep the home fires burning. If we're not back by dawn... call the president.

Mr. Ypsi

IWU, 15-0, first in the CCIW
EMU, 12-1, first in the MAC
UM, 11-1, first in the Big 10
Ypsi HS, 3-0, first in the Mega White
Tigers, 11-8, tied for first in the AL Central

If I'm dreaming, only a sadist would wake me up! ;D ;)

After the 13 consecutive losing seasons (including the near-record disaster of 2003) prior to last year, imagine my amazement to be both surprised and disappointed that the Tigers are 'only' tied for first!

In the immortal words of SNL: "Bezball been bery, bery good to me". :D

Carthage defeated Elmhurst today 11-2 to move to 20-11 overall and 10-5 in the CCIW. IWU(15-0) is up 5 games with 6 to go, so barring an historic collapse, they will wear the season crown and host the CCIW tourney.

Carthage hosts Millikin this weekend in Kenosha and North Park the following weekend. IWU has yet to play either Augustana or Elmhurst. I expect Carthage to close the gap a bit, but 5 games would be a miracle.

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

North Park lost to Rockford tonight 6-5

REDMENFAN

Eight of Carthage's eleven runs yesterday came in one inning as they sent 12 batters to the plate in I believe the 4th inning. The redmen pounded out 21 hits

WLCALUM83

North Central up 7-2 on Benedictine going into the 3rd inning.

WLCALUM83

North Central 13, Benedictine 4--final.  (Sabatino hurt while attempting a diving catch in 7th inning, had to leave the game.)
