BB: Regionals (Midwest) 2012 Whitewater WI

[ShineTime]

If my memory is any good I believe Drew Gay pitched against Point last year first game and for the most part locked up Point's bats too so this is not surprising that La Crosse is struggling to score.

La Crosse falls 2-1 to Aurora.  Not much of an upset as many would think Aurora is an unbelievable #7 seed.  I still can't believe La Crosse didn't get the one seed and get St. Norberts first round.  Would've made a big difference.  St. Thomas is sitting really good having Maher against Whitewater next game.

LAX UPset by Aurora 2-1

LAX UPset by Aurora 2-1

Even though I thought LAX was the favorite – and I think that may have been the consensus before today – I don't see Drew Gay beating any D-III team as an upset. Warnecke can beat anyone too. I wouldn't be surprised to see AU in the winner's bracket final.

I thought there were seven teams with a legitimate shot at the regional title. That hasn't changed.

Kind of a shame that Whitewater isn't supplying live video for all of the games in the Regional.  They have multiple camera angles for the UWW games, but not even a fixed shot for the rest of the games.  A little weak.

Whitewater did the same thing last year. I agree.

This is an NCAA sponsored event, right? It's probably up to them...

No. The host school can webcast the tournament without paying any rights fees, as long as it's a student run production and not a commercial broadcast. If I recall correctly, Whitewater's limitation is a lack of available workers since their semester is already completed.

The Central region is being broadcast via live streaming for all games if I'm not mistaken.

A little surprised to see St. Norberts handle Concordia with ease. I thought Condordia would bounce back today.

I have a feeling UWW will be seeing UWL tomorrow for an elimination game. UWL has owned us this season (0 wins - 6 losses). However all six of those games were played in La Crosse.

Maybe it won't come to that if UWW can knock off UST this afternoon. UWW is 1-1 against the Tommies this season.

UWL is currently down 2-1 to North Park in the 4th

Are there any live stats that are working for the NPU/LAX game?

Yup... 

La Crosse up 3-2 in the Bottom of the 5th inning...

Dylan Thomas getting the start for St. Thomas instead of Maher....

Colin Grove will take the ball for the Warhawks....

I know I mentioned this before and didn't get a response, but there must be something clearly worng with Whitewater pitcher Kyle Stewart.  He started the season 7-0 and was their "ace,' yet for the past two weekends, he has thrown less than an inning....
