Congrats to Rhodes.
At NPI ranking of #40, 2 losses in the tourney might have knocked Rhodes out of an at-large bid. After May 9th games, I had Rhodes as the #22 at-large bid (of 23 total). In the SUNYAC, Oswego went 2-and BBQ and lost 10 slots in the rankings.

As I see it, because of the rain-out, Centre may have been denied a Regional Hosting at NPI #17, but the SAA extended their prowess as a Baseball Power Conference with 3 bids.

I think Trinity will have a sufficiently strong NPI to earn a Pool C bid, if they do not win the conference.

Former B-SC coach Jan Weisberg will make his D1 head coaching debut Friday when his Eastern Kentucky Colonels travel to Alabama State for a three-game set.  He was previously the HC at D2 Valdosta State, where he led the team to a 30-22 record.  He will have his work cut out, leading a team that after an 11-44 season (8-22 American Sun) lost 28 players from its roster.  Only 18, and only three starters, return.

Question.

4 errors for TUTx vs TLU on Tues.
What was the condition of TLU's infield?

Just saw this.  Trinity's somewhat error-prone this season (three games with four errors so far) and this was not only the first time they hit the road this season, but the first time they played on natural grass.

Good to see the Tiger bats get going this weekend (23, 10, and 10 runs) but looks like Jim Page's Majors are struggling this season.

TLU's field is usually pretty good. McMurry had 5 errors in game 1 and 2 in each of games 2 and 3 back on February 13 and 14.
