I commend your honesty... funny things happen between the lines. It always balances itself out in the end.
Baseball is not a game that builds character, it is a game that reveals it.

I didn't see the game, but the scoreboard at Guilford's McBane Field said 7-5 visitors.  I guess that's one for the SU Hornets and the USASAC - darn it!  lol

still a lot of games to be played, but....i'm with you so far :) - part of the problem is what i alluded to earlier in the season...3 game weekends - usasac teams just can't afford to pitch any of the top 4 pitchers beyond tuesday because they might need them on the weekend, so you go into mid-week matchups pitching a number 5 vs. a number 3 or 4 - i think one of the cnu fans said this, though...usasac teams need to start putting a priority on recruiting quality starting pitching DEPTH, and that will help tremendously in regional, mid-week games as well as on a regional/national tournament level - i still have faith that the usasac is a superior baseball conference to the odac this year, and i KNOW that historically that has been the case - mc has won more regionals than the entire odac

I just got home from the HSC vs. CNU game today and i think that CNU threw there #2 who actually could be considered there number 1...he was extremely effective but seem to run out of gas in the 6th or 7th...HSC threw there #3 and he was very effective throwing off speed...who does CNU have this weekend in conference play or who did they have last weekend to be able to throw their #2?

The Capts had an "off" conference weekend this past weekend. CNU played Castleton (VT) in a double-dip Saturday and threw their 1 and 3. Capts play host to Greensboro in a three-game set starting Saturday. He will be back for the weekend, no doubt about it. That kid was on the All-Tournament Team in the World Series as a freshman. Plus, he wasnt recruited, he was a walk-on who turned out to be great find for the Capts. Still early in the year, but he will be up to speed, he usually is able to throw 9 strong, I know he was having some arm trouble last year that kept him out for a bit, Im sure he will be fine. Congrats to the Tigers on a great win.

I hope the USA South coaches realize that this three-game conference schedule crap sucks. They need to go back to two 9's, one on Saturday and one on Sunday. Just my opinion, I could be wrong (as I quote Dennis Miller).

I know a couple of the coaches are arguing for a three game weekend in the odac...i think it has it's benefits, but i think that  you are right in the fact that the 3 game series hurts the USASAC...it will undoubtlky hurt the odac if they ever turn to it

Since the ODAC has ten schools, they can play 18 conference games with just a doubleheader or  home and away games against geographically closer schools.  With only seven baseball playing schools, I guess the USASAC thinks they need a three-game series to make a decent conference slate.   Personally, I hope the ODAC doesn't adopt it.

I saw this in the NY section of this site and liked it:  www.baseballreference.com/schools/   
You can see how many major leaguers went to each school and when they played.

Capts and the Pride split a double-dip with CNU winning game one, 6-3 and GC winning game two, 4-1.

Capts put an 8-spot up on the Pride in the fourth inning and come away with a 10-5 win.

I hear Ferrum finished off their sweep of Shenandoah and I see NCW won both yesterday, no result as of 5 pm on game three.

monarchs step out of conference and sweep piedmont - brandt fired a cg, 5 hitter on saturday...maybe he's rounding into form - the monarchs NEED him to...big series against the capts this weekend (with 3 non-conf tilts between)

monarchs get a 3-2 win under the lights (first time ever...a little mc history made last night) to climb above .500 at 11-10 - play tufts today

coach austin is probably thinking that mc should join the gsac now - with 2 wins vs. lagrange, 2 vs. piedmont and 1 vs. m'ville to go with a loss to huntingdon, the monarchs are 5-1 vs. the gsac

tufts wins 3-1...monarchs are REALLY struggling to score runs of late, but the pitching seems to be turning a corner - endicott today and frosh sholar on the hill...he's a big boy...hope he pitches well
