Thanks for the info. Guru.  that tournament has been useless anyway, most of the teams in the region could care less about it and some can't play in it.

Couldn't agree more airball, but at this point I would love to see the tournament so Fisher could try and sneak another win or two.
GO FISHER!!!

Game two:

Ithaca 6
RIT 4.

Come on RIT, just win one for me.
GO FISHER!!!

RIT is just good enough to hang around but not good enough to beat really good teams.  With that said, i am sure the Cardinals are still a bit upset with splitting with them early in the season.  I don't like RIT's chances at all on day two with their lack of pitching... Ithaca has held back their best arms for day two.

Congrats to Fisher for winning the E8 for the first time in school history. Is this the first time a team not named Ithaca has won the league?

I am hoping for a pool B when the tournament is announced.
GO FISHER!!!

Does anyone know when the NCAA will announce the teams that are in the tournament? According to the SJFC webpage, it will be announced "late Sunday night" (?)

Probably closer to very early Monday morning.

Rumor has it Fisher has had a couple of transfers that will affect the shape of their 2011 team.  Star infielder Teagen Barresi transferred to rival Ithaca for his senior year? Pretty unusual time to be switching schools.....

On the incoming side, a hard throwing lefty freshmen pitcher transferred in from Niagara after deciding that D1 program was not the place him to be? 

Can anyone confirm?  Any other E8 info out there?

We won't see rosters until February so we may have to wait until then. Barresi was a sophomore last season so he has two years remaining of eligibility.

As with Division III baseball, sometimes you have to wait until the opening game to find out who's on the roster.

Thanks for correction on Barresi.  Yeah, I realize it will be a couple more months before all the rosters are up, I was just looking more for unofficial word that may be out there on player movement, new prospects, etc.

I heard the same rumors and can confirm that Fisher got a pretty good lefty that left NU to be with his girlfriend at Fisher :D....Heck of a reason to leave a D I scholarship but we have all been there.  It will interesting how this team shapes up.  They also lost a hitting coach/3rd base coach who was dynamite.  He and the new head coach did not get a long.  Should be interesting but it will no doubt make that 4 game set with Ithaca that much more interesting.  GONNA BE AT THOSE GAMES!!!

airball55

Who is the amazing third base/hitting coach??

reddragon00

airball55...he was an old HS coach from the Rochester area...was very good teacher and did a heck of a job with some of those kids.  took OK kids and made them good hitters....they had a lot of OK kids.  Anyone know who Oneonta's transfers are??   people say they are the real deal.  Could unseat Cortland...

They'll be mentioned in the New York region preview for D3baseball.com.
