The NCAA uses the TES mileage software, not Google.

Piedmont to Marietta is 505 miles.

If Piedmont is selected, then Piedmont can be flown anywhere that they are needed.

Piedmont isn't more than 500 to Millington though, is it?

You're right.  Piedmont to Rhodes is only 460 miles. 

If Piedmont gets a Pool B/C, then they are can go there.

Is the regional in Millington or actually at Rhodes campus?

Anyone have an update on the games today?  Was thinking about driving over for the first two games, but have no idea what the start times are now with the weather and such...

Anyone??  Anyone??

Besides the regional site, you might want to keep an eye on some Twitter feeds. You might get quicker information there...

@uwspathletics - UWSP's sports info feed
@csssaints - CSS sports info
@cpeterson_11 - I think he's a CSS player
@HUPipers - Hamline sports info
@AU_Spartans - Aurora sports info

and of course...
@d3baseball - for updates from around the country

Thanks JB.  Appreciate the info.

Looks like we'll be underway on time...

@uwspathletics: No delays here in WW! Pointers and @AU_Spartans set for 10am first pitch in soggy Whitewater! Listen live at www.1010wspt.com

Scott Williams (UWSP) vs. Drew Gay (AU) in the opener

http://www.sidearmstats.com/uww/baseball/index.htm

[Just Bill]

Nine-hitter Garrett Gajewski singles home two for Aurora. 2-0 AU in the middle of the second.

[cubs]

Looks like Gay is pitching to contact, and letting his defense do the work thus far...

[Just Bill]

Fritz (groundout) and Douglas (single) drive in runs. 2-2 through five. Very different pitchers, both being effective. Williams has struck out eight, Gay none.

[cubs]

All tied up after five complete innings 2-2, as Point scores two runs in the bottom of the 5th.  They could have had a bigger inning if not for having a runner thrown out on the bases with nobody out.

Williams with 8 K's through 5.0 Innings.
Gay with 0 K's through 5.0 Innings.

A rather clean game so far, as the teams have combined to play errorless ball through five innings.

[cubs]

Great minds think alike JB!!!!!   

[Just Bill]

Great minds think alike JB!!!!!   

... and so do ours!

[cubs]

Heading tothe 9th, still tied 2-2.....

Williams with 2 BB's and 11 K's, while Gay has 0 BB's and 2 K's.  Both pitchers have given up 6 hits through eight innings of work.

[Strikeout]

Thanks for the updates fellas....keep them coming.  Is there a way I can listen to these games on webcast or something?
