BB: USAC: USA South Athletic Conference

Narch-

I couldn't tell you but the trasfers doesn't mean they actually played baseball where they are from.  It doesn't really mean anything.  All it means to me is they had two years or one year and they transfered in.  How many of them are everyday players for Greensboro? How many are on the JV Team here?

     USA South so far has ridiculous numbers as a conference. Total win-loss is 23-5, the LOWEST team batting average is .288 and 5 teams are over .300, the HIGHEST team ERA is a very respectable 3.72, and Christopher Newport University has a just silly team ERA of 0.39 through 3 games.  Most games played so far have not been against schools from the frozen tundra, and it hasn't been exactly toasty anyway.

       Lots of games this weekend, so we'll see how another round of games affects the numbers.

About those GC transfers.  Maloney and Burgess in the same year.  From what I've heard Shenadoah is also getting good numbers in the transfer department.

[NCWC]

Some good South Region action through the middle of next week.

psbbg - i'll have to research some of your questions, but the monarchs have a total of 2 transfers on their varsity and jv teams....

i will tell you this, i doubt there are many who are transferring in from a juco or d2 or d1 and playing at gc if they didn't play at their previous school

CNU-Rowan (2/17)  Kulik vs. Moreland?

Coach Harvill told me last night that Moreland is pitching against Bridgewater since it is a regional game.

I have done some research on the Greensboro Transfers.
They have a total of 15 transfers.   10 Juco guys and 5 from 4year schools.
10 of them are position players and five pitchers.

7 of them are regular starters in the field it looks like.
For the pitchers it looks like one of them is a starter.  The others are relievers.
That is a lot of contributors that were transfers. 
Is it just me or is that a  insane amount of transfers for a D3 squad.

[NCWC]

Are there any outstanding academic programs at GC?  What does tuition run?

[narch]

Is it just me or is that a  insane amount of transfers for a D3 squad.

catfish....thanks for the research...that's insane number for a d1 or d2 school, let alone a d3

i'll add this - they brought in 4 juco transfers in basketball, and i think at least 3 start (maybe all 4 do...i'm sure the gc guys can straighten that out) - they had a basketball player last year who had completed 3 1/2 years at a d2...a one semster transfer?  they also have a number of transfers in most of their other sports - maybe gc is a very transfer friendly place...or maybe there is something going on

[NCWC]

Wesleyan has four transfers on the baseball team.  One from TN, 3 from NC.  I think three of them did the recruiting for themselves.

[NCWC]

Bishops pick up another win today in a close one. NCWC 3 vs LaGrange 2.

Sr. 1B Mark Wooten had the stick today for NCWC, two doubles.
Sr. RHP Blake Rice picked up the win with a complete game, 5 hit, 8 k performance.

Blake is on a good pace right now (2-0) 1.13 ERA, 15k's, 2 CG, 16 IP, 5 H.

[narch]

Blake is on a good pace right now (2-0) 1.13 ERA, 15k's, 2 CG, 16 IP, 5 H.

could be better, i mean, his latest game showed a dramatic decline in performance...can't the kid dial up a no-no every time he goes out there 

[NCWC]

Your right narch I think his decline in performance will just make him another average pitcher.  He will probably just finish the season at a 11-1 mark, 2.75 ERA, 11 CG, 75k's, might not even earn him USAS pitcher of the year.

[NCWC]

so far today Rowan beat CNU, Emory beat Meth., still more action to come
