    Fantastic job by Minium. Rucinski loaded the bases in the 7th. Minium came in and got the first batter to K. The second batter hit the ball so hard to left that it was right at Delucia and the runner on third had no time to tag. Then Minium got the third batter to pop out to Kovanda. Great job Theron!

    2 out of 3 was huge. We really got a nice RPI bump from winning those games. If Sparty would have just beaten friggin' WMU..dammit!

    Looking ahead a bit... If we take care of business vs Akron ans PSU, and UM and UL hold their current RPI rankings for another week..we have a chance to put ourselves in the mix for an at large. Two of three vs UM (57) and a split with UL (4) should give us a huge bump. Still a ways to go, but i thought i'd put that out there.
