Just saw Emory won their Rawlings tournament against York and Greensboro... and doing it on the mound with some new freshman pitchers.

Makes it scary when it was believed they were only going to hit this year after graduating those arms.

I know this might upset Frank, but I feel Rhodes is the team to beat in the SCAC. A lot can be said of their top two on their pitching staff, and while I am not sure who they lost offensively, those two arms can carry them a long way this season.

Flanagan only lost 1 game last season, and Holt had a strong 9 wins himself with a 3 ERA.

Look forward to seeing how they play this season...

I would have to disagree w/ Marvin. While numbers are the most important factor when determining all-americans, the success of your team can surely help your case. If players have relative statistics, the one whose team reaches Appleton most likely will get the nod, historically. There is a reason why 7 of 8 regional winners had all-americans, just like there is a reason why 1/3 of the all-americans were represented in Appleton. Yes, these players led their teams with great numbers, but more importantly, they had the statistics and the success, especially to get themselves nationally recognized.
