Harper and Schaenzer need to step up big and give us some solid outings so we can avoid the pen as much as possible. Marshall, Keen and Bringhurst could all give us an inning or two possibly. And anyone coming out of the pen for less than a couple innings on Tuesday will be good to go by Friday. Good chance to give our depth a test. If the bats stay hot, it won’t matter to much.
Well I know EKU beat ranked Virginia on the road in late February. Virginia won the series, but I guess they are good enough that the Cats better show up motivated.
NCAA has a full set including rankings by stat. Looks like they have a really good pitching staff. As of 3/1, they are #1 in the nation in ERA and shutouts. #3 in triples, #4, in On base %, #6 in BB, It doesn't look to me like they had not played anyone in those stats but they played #15 South Alabama this weekend and took 4 from them, some by lopsided scores (8-2, 14-2).
What is the best NCAA Division 1 ranking service? I just realized that I don't remember which ones are any good and they are all over the place in terms of the rankings.
Not Texas Tech, Tenn Tech is who has the small field. Morehead States is something like 280 down the line in right. Seemed smaller when we played there.
Yea. Maybe some very small colleges don't have stat pages, but it's strange for a top 5 team not to.
Me too, even the bad teams show their stats. I know this weekend will be a challenge, on a side note TTU's ast. head coach's family is from here in our county, he will have about a dozen kinfolk at each game this weeked, He is J Bob Thomas
Go to their website and the stats are under the media tab.
They have some impressive stats, but then so do we. Looks like their starters usually only go 5 or 6 innings, breaking them in early, not to over use their arms.
Interesting, a Texas boy with connections to the East Ky. Mountains. Small world, who would have thunk it !!
