Congratulations to Jim Broughton on winning his 300th game recently. He has been coach of Colby Sawyer since it started Baseball 21 years ago, and really epitomizes what a D-lll program is all about. A small school in northern New England, Colby Sawyer faces many difficulties in recruiting for baseball and, because of weather and distance within the conference, a horrendous schedule. Definitely about the Student athlete. Congrats Jim, hope you make 500 wins.

Wake up New England, Baseball is here. Beware of Nathan Franjillo, Colby Sawyer Freshman starts the season 10 for 17 with 5 dbls and a homerun.

It will be interesting to see how ESCU evolves this year with a new coaching staff and system.

Congrats to Conor Bierfeldt of Western Connecticut on being drafted. Good Luck to him.

Congrats to coach Flaherty and the men of Gorham. You did us proud. What might have been if Carmen was healthy...

Hockey fan,
How do you see the pitching tomorrow for USM?

Hope USM completes the run  and brings back the National Championship to NE. Go Huskies!

So... USM has to battle through either Wheaton or WNEU to be able to play Endicott twice to go to Appleton, though right now it looks like Wheaton is going home, so will WNEU be able to take on USM and then play Endicott twice for the championship. Are we seeing the passing of the guard in New England with the CCC rising over the LEC NEMAC and NESCAC. We have a lot of young coaches in NE who are trying to establish themselves. Maybe parity is around the corner. There are a lot of teams just one or two players away from conference championships and regional victories and World Series appearances.

Is this DW's first tournament win?
This is Daniel Webster's first win in NCAA regional play in any sport ever, I believe. Interesting note...they have 17 NH players on their roster. Someone did a good job recruiting local talent.

Answers await:

http://www.d3blogs.com/d3baseball/2013/05/02/second-ncaa-regional-ranking-of-2013/

New England Region
1 Southern Maine 23-3 29-6
2 Wheaton (Mass.) 24-7 27-10
3 Western New England 26-8 27-9
4 Endicott 27-11 27-11
5 MIT 22-7 22-8
6 Amherst 20-7 20-8
7 St. Joseph's (Maine) 26-10 28-11
8 Eastern Connecticut 23-10-1 23-11-1
9 Bowdoin 22-11 22-11
10 Salem State 18-7 21-13
Ought to be interesting to see how this shakes out in the next week I can see Endicott bumping up because of in-region wins. I don't see Eastern and St Joe's dropping off that far with Mit and Amherst ranked ahead of them.  Of course St Joes has an automatic so it doesn't matter too much except for location and seeding. I think Eastern's fate is in their hands this week-end.

kscer,
    you have to remember though, Eastern had lost 3 of 6 since the 1st regional came out.  If they were to have been swept by Amherst, they probably would have dropped out of the rankings completely.  Sweeping Amherst just saved their season, granted they still have more work to do.
I'm not sure what rankings you are looking at, Wildthing, but after the rankings of April 25, ESCU is 4-2, with one of the losses to Wheaton. I think they are in fine shape.

Most of the teams that will be in the regionals are those teams listed in the regional rankings by the NCAA. Rankings of 4/26 had ESCU ranked 4th behind USM Wheaton and WNEU. The rankings come out on Friday, and they are the only rankings that count for the selection committee. After the automatic qualifiers, the at=large teams are chosen from the regional rankings. ESCU stands a very good chance of going to the regionals unless they are swept by KSC and go 2 and out in the LEC Tournament. If someone other than USM or ESCU win the LEC tourney, you might see three LEC teams in the regionals.

A general question... Does the NAC have an automatic bid this year as a standalone conference?

USM Loses to Babson today after being shut out by UMB yesterday. Is the magic dust off the ball? Will the trend continue  through this week end? Hope So! Go KSC...
