I was on a two and out team in 06.....CatfishNCWC on the USAS thread was on the team that won it in 99

I was on a 2 and out team as well.  CTX 2002, ECSU was the champ that year.  2 and Q made me want to puke...terrible feeling.  to top it off, there was  a3 day rain delay to begin the tournament, and win it did start it was in the 30's for the night games....but the weather was the same for all 8 teams....

haha  dang 4 degrees sure would make your arm feel good and loose...i dont know how you guys do it...i commend you for it. if i lived north, id probably just wish i was born a girl or wish i was good at hockey.

The truth is I live to far north.  My school on the other-hand, my school get s to celebrate a national championship every year - okay two years ago we did not get one but lost by the slimest of margins - and our hockey tam is just not good enough - alas.

What school or team do you follow?  what years did you play?

my school on the other hand apparently sent the undefeated football team that we dont have to play the Howard Payne Univ. baseball team.  32-19...unbelievable

1995 Cortland State, 2 and out but had no pitching left! We lost the 1st game of the NY regional and won 5 in a row to get to Salem. Great team, great trip, great memories like watching Jared Washburn gas and light up the radar guns!

[BigPoppa]

Scuba- we lost to Washburn (UW-Oshkosh) in the first round and beat your Red Dragons in the second round of that '95 series. All I remember about the Cortland team is the bat girls

[scuba16]

Big Poppa,
We lost to Marietta 11-10 and then to William Patterson 16-10. We scored 20 runs in 2 games and lost both games. Who would have thought.
You guys lost to Oshkosh and beat Eastern Conneticut State in the 2nd round. I also remember EConn's bat girls!
Actually, we watched your game and couldn't believe Washburn was throwing that hard for being so small. He was 92-94 on all of the scouts guns.
Lieder and Jorgenson combined to hit something like 75 hrs that year!
Lorgensen had 40+!
There was some seroius talent that year in Salem.

At old Salem Stadium, anyone would have thought. Coaches can hit fungoes out of the park there.

Jorgensen hit 42 HRs that season and Leider hit close to 30. It was unreal. Mix in four-time all american Jeff Zappa and  Jarrod Washburn and I am still amazed that they did not come home with the title.

[scuba16]

If I remember correctly, Laverne saved their #1 for later in the tournament and Oshkosh threw Washburn game 1. I guess the only way anyone was going to beat Oshkosh that year was doing something taboo, like not throwing your #1 in game 1. When it works you look like a genius but if you lose you look like a retard!

Old Salem stadium was tiny with concrete block walls. I played CF and the ball would rocket off the walls. The wind blew out all week and runs were scored at will.
