Stump- 

Thanks alot.  I cant imagine trying to get there but it seems like a nice home field that no one else knows about.

Also,

Good day for pitchers as Keene St., UMass Boston and Fitchburg St. all received great starting pitching.

Hockeyfan i never thought i would see the day that USM's pitching and defense would carry them hahahah.  What happened it seems like Keene who was all pitching and defense and no offense 3 years ago has now become USM like with thier bats carrying them a lot of days, and USM the other way around.  Im sure that USM will not have a problem scoring runs as they never seem to do.  Did i see Henry on a box score?  Hes still there?  It seems like Henry and Castillo from Eastern have been in the league for like 30 years


Yup, Henry is still at USM: USM has a fast team so they may score runs with hit and runs and steals but for the most part from what I have seen and heard is USM is a team with gap power this year: nothing like the team that had last year!!!  KSC has a scary offense: haven't seen them this year but I saw them plenty last year and ECSU has can swing the bat along with UMB...Should be a fun and different year watching USM...

Curry holds off a ninth inning rally from Wheaton to win 7-6.

UMass Boston took game one 5-0 over MCLA and leads game two, 12-5 in the bottom of the sixth.

Southern Maine takes down WNEC 11-3. I am hearing that it was a close game early, but once USM got to WNEC's bullpen the game opened up. The USM bats will always be a threat, no matter if it is supposedly a "down" year for the bats. Also, WNEC needs to figure out that bullpen in order to get to where they want to be. So far WNEC has had two big tests against in-region teams (Keene St and USM) and have lost both.

Those are two tough losses because I believe they count towards your end of the year stats as in-region.  It stinks because the team usually gets better as the season goes on.  WNEC will have a chance against Keene St. again but not USM. 

MASCAC had some good wins today as did UMass Boston.

I am going to try and make my way over to MIT tomorrow for their game against Wentworth.  Video of the game and maybe some interviews.  I have Hockey East semi-finals tomorrow night so I cant stay long.

Hobbesy,

Thanks for the comment regarding TCCC, nice to see them get a mention. I have watched LEC baseball for 10-12 years, and had the chance to see numerous TCCC games over the last year. 2-3 teams in TCCC could compete in the LEC. Curry & WNEC among them.
Interestingly, WNEC and Curry usually fight it out for the Tourney Championship. Curry has a history of running the table during the regular season, WNEC for some reason struggles against some of the lesser talented teams in TCCC during the regular season. Not sure why.

Last year's Championship run by WNEC had to go through Curry on their home field, not a easy job by any means. Curry's field is one of the more bizzare and difficult parks to watch a game from.

Should be interesting to see whether WNEC has the talent and ability to repeat this year. They lost a lot of talent to graduation and transfers from last year's squad. Coach LaBranche does an amazing job at WNEC in keeping this program at or near the top of the heap in their conference and as a strong program in New England.

Good Luck to WNEC. And thanks again Hobbesy for your observations and blogs, I really enjoy them.

Your welcome.  I am planning a trip this Saturday to watch the Curry-WNEC doubleheader at Curry.  It should be a great two games. 

So many teams in the TCCC makes it an interesting conference.  Lots of league games can make it easier to take a loss than say a 14 game schedule but still important to win all of them.

It appears so far that alot of the teams are pretty even in the TCCC but Curry and WNEC's out of conference schedule put them a step ahead.

I am hoping its nice this weekend so I can take a trip down and check out the games.

And the answer cannot be:

1) EConn - Starters
2) EConn - Reserves
3) Trinity -
4) EConn - JV
5) EConn - Guys who tried out at EConn but did not make the cut

Thanks,
