How is weather in Fayetteville?  Methodist supposed to play Montclair State in the afternoon and then NCWC comes into town to play Montclair State at Methodist at 7 pm?  Really weird...After 4 days, still raining pretty steady in Norfolk...just wondering about Fayetteville.

Trio of Bishops garner USAC Player of the Week accolades

Fayetteville, NC - The North Carolina Wesleyan Department of Athletics is pleased to announce that a trio of Battling Bishops have earned USA South Athlete of the Week accolades in their respective sports. Senior Luke Williford was tabbed baseball's Player of the Week, while freshman teammate Ben Franceschi was named Rookie Pitcher of the Week. Like Franceschi, freshman Ashley Driver of softball also picked up Rookie Pitcher of Week honors. This is the first award of the season for each.

BASEBALL PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Williford, a senior outfielder from Edenton, NC, hit .550 (11-for-20) with eight runs scored, seven RBI, six stolen bases, two sacrifice hits, one double, one triple, one homerun and one sacrifice fly in a 5-0 week for the Bishops. In a doubleheader sweep of Piedmont, Williford went a combined 4-for-7 with three runs scored, three RBI, two sacrifice hits, one homerun and one stolen base. The homer, in fact, was a three-run blast that erased a one-run deficit in the seventh inning of game one and eventually sealed the baseball program's 1000th victory.

BASEBALL ROOKIE PITCHER OF THE WEEK
Franceschi, a native of Kitty Hawk, NC, went 7.2 innings in his first collegiate start to collect a win in the team's 7-3 victory over Stevenson on Wednesday. Franceschi allowed two runs, only one of which was earned, on four hits with four walks and three strikeouts.

Great job by Ben Francheschi on win vs Stevenson.  The freshman got a chance to start and did a great job.  As for Luke Williford it was just a matter of time.  He has been just such a consistent hitter over the years, I knew he was not going to keep that average at .105...I think he started hitting once they moved him from DH to CF.

What a day of baseball yesterday in Fayetteville.  Three of the most storied programs on the East Coast playing on the same field for 2 games.  Poor Montclair had to run into perhaps the two hottest teams going right now.

just saw the ncwc/msu box...knowles pitched a gem going 6 innings with 7 k's and just 2 hits allowed...he's off to a great start for the bishops

i'm hoping the monarchs can keep the win streak alive through the middle of the week - the tufts jumbos are 1-2 right now, with losses to lynchburg and g'boro and a win against au

narch

8 straight for the monarchs as they beat tufts 10-2 and pounded out another 15 hits (box score)...20 games into the season, the monarchs are hitting a robust .381 as a team- inghram was 4-4 with 4 rbi...not a bad day at the office - britt pitched REALLY well again, going 7 and giving up just 4 hits with 6 k's - his last 2 starts he's 2-0, 14 ip, 6 h, 2 er and 12 k's...he's got really good stuff and seems to be trusting it more - i expect bisp to get the nod on the bump on thursday against montclair...if mu can get a quality start from him, the staff will be set up well going into the weekend

NCWC

NCWC is up 6-1 on Tufts through 3 and a half.  Justin Diener is on the mound for the Bishops. Game 1 of 2 I believe.

Make it 8 in a row for NCWC with a 9-1 win against Tufts in game 1 of DH.

Salisbury wins its third game in a row down in florida. check out this phenomenal statistic...

Notre Dame transfer, Ryan Smith, hits two three-run homeruns in the first inning and totals nine RBIs in the first five innings of the game.

Talk about a MAN game.

mu took their 9th straight overall and picked up their second win against montclair in what sounds like a wild game last night...the monarchs scored 12 runs on 4 hits in just 5 innings and the game didn't start until 10 pm...crazy

game story and box score

montclair had just played a marathon game against averett earlier in the day.  The game went into extras and they did not leave danville until probably close to 7 oclock.  had to have been a long day for those guys

Well it looks like the Pride will finally get to play a conference series this weekend...should be interesting to see how they do. I saw where they have turned it around a little bit of late. They have been playing a lot of weak teams as well though. Any idea if they will make up the 2 conference series that were rained out? They probably don't want to play NCWC  ;)
