I'll be at Wesleyan on the 15th and 16th of next month to see this kid in action.

I should be there also.  I saw Kivett play at CNU last year and will have to see him again.  He could be a pro prospect his Junior Year.  Also it is hard to not see the NCWC/Methodist game.

Captains get an 11-0 win to open 2008 yesterday over Hampden-Sydney (narch add another USAS win over the ODAC  ;D) Kenny goes five and strikes out six, walks two and allowed just one his. Three other hurlers combined for four innings and allowed no hits. Chris Despins hit a BOMB to straight away centerfield yesterday and went 3-of-4 with four RBI. This kid is MAMMOTH!! He's 6-5, I dont know what he weighs, but he is a beast.

CNU gets Eastern Mennonite tomorrow at 2:30 pm.

Sounds like another masher first name of Chris they used to have.

The Bishops notched another win this afternoon over Lynchburg 9-4. Kyle Robertson went 5 innings to record his 1st win after a long lay offed due to injury. Congratulations to Bird and the Battling Bishops. Up next is Piedmont Saturday and Sunday.

A lot of guys got hits.  The LC starter has serious control issues the first inning, as the Bishops batted around.

the monarchs won 9-2 over frostburg yesterday - big pitching performance from kisiah going 7 strong with 7 hits, 0 er and 7 k's - lynchburg today at 1...should be a great day for baseball

game story & box score

NCWC

NCWC dropped one today to Piedmont... 5-3... Im willing to bet it was a pitching duel into the late innings and somehow piedmont blew it open...Haven't seen the box score or heard how the game went yet.

lynchburg gets mu, 7-5 today - toth wasn't sharp...i think he gave up 5 runs in 3+ ip - his stuff looked good, but he struggled to locate and really labored - kivett was 0-3 when i left, but he hit a ball on the nose with a runner at 2nd that was right at the 2b...that was actually a big inning for lc and one that could have decided the outcome of the game - carter led off the inning with a dribbler that the ss threw away (his 2nd error of the game to that point) and advanced to 2nd with kivett at bat...and the monarchs didn't score him - i was more impressed with kivett in the field...he made a couple of spectacular defensive plays

narch...are you going to be there on Sunday.  I would sure like to meet you.

It seemed #5 was pressing...but he sure impressed the heck out of me at 3B.  Very good ball player.  LC was fortunate to escape the 5 errors out of its infield.  I have no idea who we're throwing in the game at 4 on Sunday?

The Captains split a DH with Arcadia today. The Knights scored eight in the top of the second and CNU put two up in the fourth I think before scoring six, most of those came with two outs, in the bottom of the seventh to force the extra frames, where the Captains won it in the bottom of the ninth.

In game two, CNU scored three times in the first and one more in the second to take an early 4-0 lead. Arcadia came from behind in this one to win it 8-4.

Up next, Gwynedd-Mercy Sunday at 11 am.

hornets7...won't be there sunday, unfortunately

you didn't happen to be the guy yelling at the umpire about tom austin's winning percentage at shelley-armstrong field, did you :) - the lynchburg fans sure did a lot of complaining about calls (a couple of the complaints were very much justified, i'd add)

the monarchs got a solid pitching performance from landon jordan in game 2 today as he went 5.1 with 5 k's and just 1 er in an 11-1 win...i imagine bisplinghoff will go for mu on the hill on sunday - i'm also wondering if kurt kelly is hurt...he led the monarchs in starts and was 2nd in ip's last year and hasn't pitched yet this season - if the monarchs can continue to get quality starts from jordan and kisiah, can add kelly into the mix at some point and can get toth throwing strikes to go along with solid contributions from bisplinghoff and the geisinger coming out of the pen in long releif and making occassional mid-week starts, the makings for a very solid rotation are there

on the offensive side, kenly locklear hit 2 bombs in the night cap giving mu 11 as a team this year...and they hit 7 as a team all last season - i do think this team is going to much better offensively than they were last year - quinn didn't play at all today...i know the lynchburg starter was a lhp...the frostburg roster didn't specify wether their starter was a righty or a lefty...hope he's not hurt

A.G.

Sorry I will miss you, narch.  MU is a good squad and our bats just finally woke up, yesterday.  Going into the games, we only had TWO guys that were over .300...and that is not good for a team that usually leads the ODAC in hitting....and FIVE E's is in excusable for a team that was second in the nation in fielding last year (and all five were by returnees).

As far as the line about Coach Austin...that was pretty funny...and wish I'd have thought of it...but that was another dad.

NCWC...I tried to send you an email to answer the question you posed to me in the email you sent me but it was returned to me with a delivery failure notice after 8 attempts. Please let me know what I need to do to get an email through. I used the email address under your board name.

hornets7 - i don't want to take anything away from lc and the lc bats, but 3 walks and a hit batter in 2.2 innings by toth certainly helped them generate some runs - the hit batter came with 2 outs and a 1-2 count (after what should have been strike three...the umpire shouldn't have given the batter time while the pitcher was in his windup and it's unlikely he would have swung at the ball or hit it if he had swung with one hand in the air as the air as the ball passed by him), and the next guy gets a hit that scores three runs (and toth's inability to find the plate certainly aided that at-bat...he went 3-0 on him before the questionable strike one call...3-1 sure is a good count to hit with, especially when the bases are loaded) - the last walk was a 2 out walk when toth had 2-2 count - the next 2 guys get singles that each drive in a run - again, i don't want to take anything away from lynchburg because they were great 2-strike and 2-out hitters, but toth sure helped them out by failing to put guys away and putting runners on in critical situations...only one of the guys he put on base didn't score - he went through a couple of periods when he struggled with control last year, as well...when toth turns things around (and i'm very confident he will...he's too good not to), there won't be many teams scoring 5 runs in 2.2 innings on him

Interesting, Marietta opens with these guys down in north Georgia. Last year they were pretty decent but we beat them, kept waiting for them to go on a run of wins last year and it never happened. Maybe they're going to put it together this year, but hopefully not against the Etta Express :)

Piedmont started off 5-0 through yesterday.  NCWC beat them today 10-3 with a grand slam off the bat of jc transfer beauloseil.  Beauloseil is leading the team in average, rbi's, hr's, and total bases. He is turning out to be a very good pickup for the Bishops (5-2).  It looks like the NCWC coaches changed the lineup today to try to break out of a horrible day at the plate yesterday. Leading off with Pecora who went 0-1 with 4 walks. Jr. Ben Moore went 7 innings and gave up three runs.  So. Doug Roenker came in for 2 innings of scoreless relief.  The boys have 4 days to get ready for the number 1 team in the nation.  Im willing to bet Mr. Robertson if ready, will get the ball.
