myrecordwashorrible Posted May 19 Report Posted May 19 UIW wins 14-4. UIW is 1-5 against SELA and Corpus. This should make UIW the 8 seed. Thus Cards vs. Cards in the first round of tourney. Game time, who knows??? Just thankful they are not facing SELA in their home ballpark to open the tournament. snakehead26 1 Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted May 19 Report Posted May 19 LU and UIW at noon Wednesday. McNeese and Northwestern kick off tournament at 9. This group of 4 is Lamar's side of the bracket. Quote

Not sure who I would rather play if we make it to the championship game BUT likewise glad we are not opening against Southeast LA on their home field. Quote

The other side of the bracket to go it's full allotment of games. Anybody but Nicholls (their offense and pitching compliment each other the best from that side of the bracket IMO) coming out of the other side. Lastly, Lamar ease through 3 games on their side. Too greedy??? snakehead26 1 Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted May 22 Report Posted May 22 Well, the Achilles Heel bites Lamar. No timely hitting and fall 6-3. Quote
spidersal Posted May 22 Report Posted May 22 Well, first of all we need to congratulate Lamar on a very fine season. They had at least 41 wins and a conference championship The first time that has happened in a long time I was hoping they would make it to the regionals this season, but is now very unlikely coming from the losers bracket. I hope it happens in the near future, but again a phenomenal season Quote
snakehead26 Posted May 22 Author Report Posted May 22 I was fretting at the early lost opportunities...we had 5 hits and 6 walks but only 2 runs at that point. Then I was hoping the pitching was going to hold up but it didn't either. So yes now it would take 5 straight victories to win the tournament. myrecordwashorrible 1 Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted May 22 Report Posted May 22 Will be there at 9 tomorrow morning hoping to watch much more Lamar baseball than I had hoped to see. Hoping to see a little better plate discipline. Go Birds. Quote
Chester86 Posted May 22 Report Posted May 22 Hate it for the boys, but doesn’t hurt my feelings at all for the coaching staff. Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted May 23 Report Posted May 23 4 games to go counting the championship game if they can reach the finals. It's HOT and Skinner (catcher) started cramping in the 7th or 8th. Will be interesting to see if he is behind the plate for both tomorrow if they can keep winning. These tournaments can be odd when you can potentially play 6 games in 4 days after never playing more than 5 in a 7 day period during the season. Go Birds. Truly do like the 2 site 4 team set up before a best of 3 series the following week for the 2 winners. Glad to see the conference return to that format. Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted May 23 Report Posted May 23 Lamar v. The Word at 9 tomorrow morning. Quote

It is a better format in that it rewards the two highest seeds during the season with home field advantage during the first week and then the top remaining seed gets it for the championship game. This year SE LA is the team with the biggest benefit because the entire tournament was scheduled for their home diamond. Quote

myrecordwashorrible Posted May 24 Report Posted May 24 6-0 OUR Cards after 1/2 inning. 4 doubles and a home run. All very hard hit balls. snakehead26 1 Quote
snakehead26 Posted May 24 Author Report Posted May 24 Lamar not messing around with UIW in early innings jumps to a 6-0 lead in top of first. Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted May 24 Report Posted May 24 Varnado 3 run homer 14-0...still top of 3. Really need to end this one in 7. Quote
myrecordwashorrible Posted May 24 Report Posted May 24 Lamar has emptied the bench, yet sill putting up runs. 18-2 after 5 and 1/2. Quote
