If you would have told me this past Wednesday that we would sweep this series, I'd think you were crazy. Outstanding job!

UTA came in ranked 20th in at least one poll. Congrats boys, huge weekend! I would think is one of our biggest and best weekends in a while. I remember a few years ago, when we took a series from a LSU team that I believe was #5 at the time.

Here’s to hoping we carry this momentum into the rest of the season.

GO APPS!!

We're 6th in the conference right now after taking down #1 UTA. I really like what I'm seeing these days on the baseball field!

WataugaMan has it right. I left the game thinking the same thing; Jekyll/Hyde. The guys looked sharp today.
Not surprising considering 3/4 of the team are in their 1st or 2nd year on the squad. We're also still building depth which explains the mid-week struggles. Let's be honest, the only games that really matter right now are the 9 remaining conference games. The mid-week games are just gravy at this point.

I agree that the conference games are the ones that matter, but I still don't want to lose to WCU tomorrow. That said, I wouldn't change anything that jeopardized the conference series this weekend. Fortunately the Catamounts appear to be a very beatable team.

Yes Congrats boys.... very nice series. Finally we had an offensive explosion. In three games had 31 hits and 13 extra base hits (6 doubles, 2 triples and 6 HRs) Way to go! Like most sports it comes down to match ups. Of our remaining conf. games we will continue to play teams that have higher era’s than UTA had.... UTA .455, SoAl .488, CC .497..... keep swinging those bats! Yea guess I was in a hurry this morning leaving out Arky.... their era .478... Boys keep ripping that ball.

*Update* T2 - 0-0 after 1 but the good guys are getting hits. Good sign.

*Update* B4 - BOOM! Riley Smith 3 run shot bottom of the 4th. 9 total hits on the day. Left 2 more stranded in the 4th but man...the Mountaineers are shelling this pitcher. Doubt he comes out for the 5th.

NP. Several other users have stepped up on games that I couldn't keep up with. Just trying to get people talking about baseball. This team deserves a lot of credit today. Got the bats going early. Got into a couple jams. Then turned it back on.

Very important series on the road this week against an Arkansas State team that was once near the top of the standings, but has hit the skids the past few weeks. They're fighting just to make the tournament at this point.
