Congrats to Denison University Coach Mike Deegan on his 100th career victory today in a win against Marietta.

For completeness, Denison beat Marietta 3-2 on Sunday.

FYI, Denison is scheduled to play Marietta in October.

Denison starts Fall Practice Monday. A bunch of freshmen trying out. Lots of pitchers and OF as best one can tell from afar (20ish at last count). Big Red Weekend is at the end of the month, so we will get to see some intrasquad games then. Looking forward to it but no more so than the son who is ready to get back after it.
Good luck to all as the Fall Season gets underway.

Appears that I spoke to soon. (Not an uncommon trait my wife has told me.)

Was announced last night that Denison Assistant Coach Ryne Romick has accepted a position to be the new pitching coach for the University of Dayton.

Very happy for Ryne as he will excel with the Flyers. A loss for Denison. He is a very good coach and had a good relationship with his players. Big shoes to fill.

I'm hearing the Denison has a large class coming in. Maybe between 14-18, from 13 different states. Hear the majority are pitchers with OF, C and other positional players thrown in. Will be interesting to watch. Love the competition that will create.  Also told that the entire coaching staff (including volunteers) returns; which is terrific for the program!

Bishopleftiesdad -- Hope the summer is going well for you and your son.

Any idea when and where they will release the Spring NCAC schedule?

Congrats to DePauw on winning the NCAC automatic bid to the Show. They earned the trip to the NCAA as a result of an outstanding weekend of baseball. The bats truly came alive. Carry the NCAC flag, keep swinging the bats and make a long run in the tournament. To the rest of the Conference, good luck with summer ball and let the off-season conditioning begin.  ;D

A shoutout to Denison's two seniors, Connor Murphy and Andrew Touhy for a classy senior season. It was a pleasure to watch and their contributions will be difficult to replace next year.

Looks like the seeds held true to form in cross-over. Good luck to the 4 teams that remain with a chance to get to The Dance.
#11
Good luck to all this weekend.
#12
Denison and Depauw host; not travel.

It's baseball. Anything can and often does happen. The Wabash series will be a good one.
#13
Denison wins first game today (game 3 of the series) 3-1. Murphy goes the distance to get the W.
#14
Wabash and Denison split on Sunday. Denison takes the series 3-1.

All 4 games were amazing 1 run games with the first two going extra and the last two being decided in the last inning. Two evenly matched and well coached teams.
#15
Dension takes 2 from Wabash on Saturday. Both games went extra.
