Greensboro had 8 home runs today, three by Corona.  Was it windy today in Greensboro?

Wesleyan took one on the chin today, 6 errors?  Was it windy in Mount Olive today?

The game was AT Guilford...and that place is a bandbox where the wind tends to blow out.

Guilford is in Greensboro or am I mistaken.  ???

No...you're right.  I was just pointing out that the wind blowing out at Guilford is a pitcher's nightmare.

it wasn't a nightmare for the g'boro pitching staff :)

I have to wonder about the pitching rotation for Guilford.  The #2 pitcher in the game was a junior infielder who has not seen mound action since the summer before his senior year in HIGH SCHOOL.  The rest of the pitchers are all listed as pitchers on the roster.  How do you throw a kid into that situation like that?

They probably had him work a little bit in the fall, my guess is he was one of the better arms on the team.  Guilford was probably trying to make something happen.  It seems like when Guilford will get or develop a good player, that player ends up transferring w/in the conference.  You can't really build a staff like that.


Greensboro has two games this weekend.  I wonder if they start Mock and #2 to try and get wins or let their #4 and #5 go.

goldglove...today wasn't your day...monarchs win 12-2 - kivett powers two hr's and goes 4-4 with 6 rbi - quinn gets a bomb, too...having him healthy and driving the ball will be critical for the monarchs - toth went jus .1 inning with 3 walks...not sure if he left hurt or unable to locate - i'm hoping it's the latter - geisinger goes 5.2 with 5 k's and 1 er for the win in releif

Here is a nice piece I found about Chris Pecora.

After hearing so much about him on this site over the past year, I am looking forward to seeing Pecora play this coming Friday.  Who are some of the others to watch for this year at NCWC?  The only one I really remember was the FAST lead-off guy who was maybe the best drag bunter I've seen in a while.

All American Matt Smith....Its hard to say because different situations bring out the best in different players...There isn't one guy who is going to be swinging for the fences or getting all the rbi's.  It is a pretty diverse team.

The Captains kick off the 2008 season Tuesday by hosting Hampden-Sydney. Its the first of 15 straight home dates to open the year. Yeah thats right, 15 straight! Be interesting to see how Kenny Moreland does in his first start as a senior. He was 9-3 with a 2.30 ERA last year and a 1st Team All-USA South pitcher. Some new faces to this year's roster mixed in with some old ones from last year. The starting froshes from a year ago are a year older and I also look for Trae Bailey to have another solid season.
