19-0 final. Lots of guys had good nights at the plate.

1 hit shut out with 14 K's in 7 innings.

Got the run average up after the underwhelming offensive weekend.

Yeah, they were well ahead of us in RPI coming in, prolly still will be.
Even Hofstra is ahead of us even though we are 5-0 with 3 head to head wins against them and they are 0-3 which is ridiculous. I've always thought the RPI formula puts too much weight on SOS as opposed to how a team actually performs from a win loss standpoint.

Weights are generally 3/4 who you’ve played and 1/4 your record. Theoretically if you play nothing but top 20 strength of schedule teams you could have a top 10 RPI even with a terrible record. It’s ridiculous.

Caleb: "University of Souix Falls is in the [such n such] conference if anyone's interested."

Polk: "I don't think anybody at home is interested in that at all."

Damn, Coach!
That was funny, but him calling them all children and boys while former players have talked about him giving lingering pats on the asses with curved fingers made me cringe a little.
