Yet if you are looking at the teams I cited in that piece, which ended up on lots of at-large contenders' schedules, they basically are good every year. Hard to go wrong scheduling St. Thomas, St. Scholastica, UW-La Crosse, UW-Whitewater, Concordia-Chicago, Wartburg, Southern Maine, Wheaton (Mass.), etc.

Whereas Schreiner, Southwestern, University of Dallas are at the opposite end.

If finances are the only possible consideration in scheduling, well, that's unfortunate but you still have the ability to go win the automatic bid and get in. But if you don't schedule like you want to be considered for an at-large bid, you may not get one.
One other thought.

St Thomas is Pool C because they were upset by Macalester in the MIAC.

St. Thomas wasn't seeded to win the MIAC -- Bethel was the top seed.

Thank you. I assumed that the 4-team bracket had 4th place Macalester playing top seed Bethel and regular season co-champion St Thomas being the #2 seed.

I was very surprised at Macalester winning the MAIC tourney

Baseball is not a game that builds character, it is a game that reveals it.

D.O.D. Yes he did!

I caught a bit of the CLU/CTX and Cent/Linfield games on the feed.

UTT dug themselves a hole today, but they have done this before so they have the mental state to work back through the losers bracket.

Centenary looks like the team to beat although I did not see Rhodes/UTT game.

UTT vs CTX who are probably sick of each other by now...and one will even be sicker.

Big game is the CLU vs Centenary in the evening.

CTX had 2 on in the top of the 9th, no outs, and the tying run at the plate, who lines to the SS. Cal Lu gets the Triple Play!

CLU jumped out to early 5-0 lead after two innings and held on to win 6-3.   Game ending triple play with 2 CTX runners on definitely helps the cause.   Marshall P with a strong 8 innings, 10k outing leave CLU and bullpen in good shape going into Friday.
