BB: OAC: Ohio Athletic Conference

[Dr. Acula]

Congrats to BW on advancing to the super regional unblemished.  I watched their first game with UW-L and that was a good game.  Huge clutch bomb from West in the B8 to take the lead.  Credit to Nirider for busting it down the line to beat out a GIDP one batter earlier to set up the 2 run shot.  He was moving.

Mount set a new record for wins in a season at 32.  I wasn't upset about dropping the opener to Hobart.  You just never know what you're dealing with when you face somebody's ace and the kid threw really well.  Tip your cap.  They bounced back and beat up on Bridewater St. which was good to see.  The second game against Hobart was not great.  They didn't hit a soft tossing LHP who after the 1st I wasn't sure would be around more than a couple innings.  Well, he was.  It reminded me of the lefty that started for Behrend that they had trouble with also.  They have a lot of LHH and maybe those guys that throw more junk give them trouble.  It would have been a moot point because they were running out of arms even if they beat Hobart.  Overall a great season, setting a new standard and returning basically everyone except Tsouras.

Austin Ziance is transferring to WVU.  Big blow for Etta although probably not surprising.

Hard working kid and deserves it.  Had a ton of action once he went in the portal.  Sucks for new coach coming in..announcement to be made this week.  Unfortunately, very confident it's going to be a current OAC coach.

A current OAC coach, huh?  Hmmm.  That would be a good move by Etta IMO.
