Are they better than last years Div.III national Champs????

They swept Heidelberg today 5-3, and 13-2 to improve to 22-4 on the season, and 9-1 OAC.

Very good pitching, and solid defense. only weak spot might be in the hitting department.

Whats the other conf. teams have to offer?

[rickoshay]

MC plays two at Otterbein today with first pitch at 1:00.

Game will probably be streamed online by WMOA 1490.

[rickoshay]

MC shutout Otterbein twice today, 8-0, and 5-0

[rickoshay]

Rain in forecast for today, so doubleheader vs John Carroll has been postponed until tomorrow.

[rickoshay]

MC split with JC Sunday, winning the first game 3-2 in ten innings, then dropping the second 8-2.

My omen about the MC hitting reared its ugly head in the first game as the Pioneers only managed four hits in the ten inning game.

Marietta travels to Wooster tomorrow (Wed.) for a single nine inning game.

[rickoshay]

Marietta improved to 26-5 with a 15-9 victory over Wooster.

Woosters record dropped to 21-13.

Marietta had 19 hits, Wooster had 11.

Marietta college hosts St. Vincent (Pa.) tomorrow at 5:00.

[WGOU]

Marietta is very solid. I don't think they'll lose a tournament game until the College World Series. They might go undefeated there, too.

[rickoshay]

Marietta beat St. Vincent 15-2 this evening.
St. Vincent falls to 20-14 on the season

Marietta pounded out 22 hits, including a school record 11 doubles and one round tripper.
Evan Brockmeier was five fro five with two doubles and four runs scored.
MC had eleven players with at least one hit.

So much for my doubts about their hitting.

[rickoshay]

Due to rain in the Cleveland area todays Marietta vs Baldwin Wallace doubleheader has been postponed until tomorrow.

Marietta has picked up a non-confrence game for today at Muskingum.
First pitch today is 11:00 am.

[rickoshay]

Marietta beat Musingum 16-5.

Both teams played lots of reserves that don't usually see much playing time.

As both teams have important confrence games tomorrow, no starting pitchers played today.

[rickoshay]

Marietta takes two from Baldwin Wallace today 7-0, and 7-2.

The Pioneers improve to 30-5 on the season with todays wins.

Last regular season OAC games are at Wilmington Fri. May 5th.

[rickoshay]

MC now scheduled to play five games this weekend.

Two at Wilmington today to finish out OAC schedule, Two tomorrow at home vs LaRoche (Pa.), And a single game Sunday vs. Penn State Behrend.

I assume all games can be streamed online at WMOA 1490.
