I couldn't agree more with wooscotsfan.

I was following the game via LiveStats last night. For whatever reason LiveStats did not list Fanelly at all. I don't know why, but I figured it had to be an error. The box score this morning and story confirmed my suspicions of an error.

An interesting note about Wooster's opponent, LBC. Their leading scorer, Bryce Williams, appears to be on his 3rd team in as many seasons.

Is there a story behind that or what?  I'm missing something.

I don't know the story. I was reading his bio which states this is his first year with the team, yet he was a Jr. I did a little Googling and found he played for two other teams prior to arriving @ LBC.

Wooster's schedule and roster is posted.

I'm all in on Oberlin! 

According to the headline in Wooster's local paper coach P is not too happy about not making the post season. Unfortunately you need to subscribe to read the full article online. I'm not a subscriber, but would like to hear what he had to say, not that I was expecting him to be happy about the situation.

Can't disagree with mideastfan here. I really thought Wooster would out slug Oberlin in the final game Saturday. Not so fast my friend. Hope they can find some more pitching in the off season. I sure wish they had Buckingham. I never did hear what happened there..

That's one solution.  We could also not do things like schedule five games in two days.  That doesn't help anybody.

True, but Wooster had plenty of issues prior to the NCAC tourney.

From the NCAC tourney release:

The double elimination tournament continues on Thursday afternoon with the winners of Thursday's first two contests squaring off at 4:00 p.m. with a slot in the championship round on the line, while the losers of Thursday's first two games will meet on Thursday evening at 7:00 p.m. in an elimination game. Please note, no game will be started after 10:00 p.m. on Thursday night.

The final slot in the championship round will be determined on Friday morning at 10:00 am with the winner of game four taking on the loser of game three. The first championship game will be played on Friday at 2:00 p.m. with game seven scheduled for 5:00 p.m., if necessary.

Please note, should only three games be played on Thursday and game seven would put a team in position to play four games on Friday, the tournament committee will meet to set an alternate date and time for the contest based on which teams are remaining.

I'm not sure what the NCAC may have documented in their bilaws/charter/whatever.

From what I was reading on the NCAC site, the current format was settled on so seniors would be able to attend their graduation ceremonies. Their rule was that no game would start after 10 PM (e.g., due to rain delays) and no more than 4 games would be allowed in one day. If it came down to a required game 7, with game 7 being the 5th game on Friday, then the conference would meet to discuss a new date for playing game 7.

You are correct Wally.

Wooster had quite the comeback against OWU. Down 3-0 they got 3 in the 7th only to let OWU score 1 in the bottom of the 8th to retake the lead. Down to their last strike with a runner on 2nd, Wooster got a double from Lackner scoring Ostendorf from 2nd for the tie. Wooster then got an unearned run in the 10th for the win. Schuch hit a foul ball that was dropped by the fight fielder. Schuch got a double then later scored the eventual game winner.

No sign of any bats for Wooster so far. Props to OWU pitching however for their efforts.

Who had Oberlin a top the winners bracket after day 1?    I'm hoping Wooster can get the bats going because I wouldn't count on the pitching.

Oberlin takes out Allegheny 7-6 in game two. Wooster vs Oberlin coming up. Wooster swept Oberlin in the regular season.

Wooster defeated OWU 12-3 today in game one. Wooster takes on the winner of the Oberlin/Allegheny game (1:00) @ 4:00 pm.
