Well if you are Cortland, while you might not admit it, you are definitely pulling for La Crosse to win today.  The Eagles decided to start Cejka, meaning he would likely be unavailable for the best-of-three series, while Trinity countered with their #4/5 guy.  (They legitimately have five top of the line starters, as all five have started a minimum of seven games and thrown at least 55 innings or more.

If Trinity wins, they will be back to the top of their rotation, while La Crosse would be without their #1.  Easy to see why Cortland fans would like the match-up with La Crosse more!!!

Whatever Lacrosse needs to do they need to do it in a hurry or Trinity is going to run away with this one.

*And as I write that Trinity tags up on both second and first on a fly ball to center.  Trinity has been unbelievable aggressive the entire weekend and they have benefited from it, but I wonder if it will come back and bite them at some point today.

I will say that I do think Trinity and Cortland were the best teams from each Pool.  If La Crosse can get a victory today, I would be surprised.  They just haven't done a whole lot offensively since Friday.

And right on cue, La Crosse scores 9 runs over the course of four innings to turn a 3-0 deficit into a 9-3 lead as they head to the 8th inning....

In the process though, they have had to use both Cejka and Boushley, which will undoubtedly leave their rotation thin in the event they hold on and get six more outs.

La Crosse 9
Trinity 3

Rain Delay-Top 8th Inning

EDIT-Appears Rain Delay will last until at least 6:30 PM local time...

Cool. This is a good time for D-III guys to make an impression in the NWL while many D-I guys are still playing in the NCAA Tournament. A good performance might convince the NWL team to keep a guy around even after the D-I guys come back.

Wasn't hanke a senior.

His sophomore year was cut short by injury, so I'm guessing he was granted a redshirt season. He may not intend to play at UWSP next year if he already has his degree (so they listed him as a senior on the roster), but as long as he has a year of collegiate eligibility left he's still eligible to play in the NWL.

It's not uncommon in D-III for a player to be granted a medical redshirt, but then not use it because they choose to graduate and move on.

I don't know the situation, but that's my educated guess.

Please pardon my ignorance . . . is it common for D-III players to be placed with a NWL team and then be cut part-way through the season when the D-I players become available?

Just Bill

Yes. Players do come and go from NWL teams. Some players get signed to 10-day "contracts" because they are just holding the spot of another player or they are filling in for an injured player. Teams often have a list of nearby local players they can tap if they need to. But many times a player can earn their way into a regular roster spot through that same avenue.

Just Bill is correct -
For example, the La Crosse Loggers had 16 players in uniform for their opening day practice on Monday, May 25, and those 16 dressed for their first game the next night - 10 of them were under 10-day contracts...
This week, as of Monday, the team was waiting for 16 more guys to report, basically from D1 teams from the West Coast, as they finish out playoffs... Then, the roster will be juggled to accommodate those players...
Tonight, the Loggers were to be playing the 9th game of a 72-game season...
