BB: OAC: Ohio Athletic Conference

[BobcatQB]

Mount and BW are guaranteed for OAC tourney.  However, there could be a 3-way tie for 3rd if:

ONU loses twice to Heidelberg
Muskingum loses twice to Mount
Wilmington loses twice to Marietta

As I understand it, the tie breaker between ONU, Muskingum and Marietta would be records against each other.  In this case, ONU would be 3 seed and Marietta would be 4 seed because:

ONU (3-1)
Marietta (2-2)
Muskingum (1-3)

Regular tie breaker is record against 1 seed, then 2 seed, etc if needed.  However, in this case, it doesn't go to that tiebreaker but creates it's own tiebreaker with the teams that are tied.

Should be a fun week.

Mount drops 6 spots to #14.  They dropped games at Behrend 7-1 and home to Westminster 11-6.  They just didn't hit the ball at Behrend and it was not like they were facing studs.  Just one of those days.  Gernert started and pitched well, but the pen didn't hold up.  Then Westminster was senior day so the first two arms were seniors who haven't pitched much followed by two freshmen.  Neither of those teams are bad (24-7 and 26-10), but just not the best Mount has played this year.  It also again highlights the tall task they're going to have in tourney play with the lack of reliable arms beyond maybe four guys.  There are other guys who have pitched really well, but not consistently.
