Stillwater and College Station Regionals would be fun to attend. A&M and Texas would have likely preferred just about any other team than ULL. Poor Nicholls and Tulane sent all the way Oregon.

The RPI sits at 65 and the KPI is in the 80's. The numbers would need to be higher for a shot at an at large bid. Not being a pessimistic person, it's just not happening this year. Was the best season in years and hope to see more like it.

Reflection moment. My father and I truly enjoyed this past season. As 2 former high school coaches (1 good..him...and one subpar as noted by my screen name) we truly enjoy just watching quality baseball and this season definitely had it. The experience in Hammond is one I will treasure as they do a great job with the tournament, Hammond is a neat town, and our alma matter battled and made it one heck of a ride. As someone that has been a faculty member or teaching fellow at 3 present/past SLC confernce schools and served on athletic advisory boards, be thankful for what you have in your President and AD at Lamar. I visited with each a few times at games this season and got to know them a bit. There is a definite effort to improve the facilty and especially the game day experience. The program is truly supported and it's nice to see each present at games so often. Thanks for an enjoyable experience to the players, coaches, fans, and all us smack talking characters on here. Good luck Nicholls and go get em next year Big Red!

10 run ruled. Heck of a season.

Same after 6.

10-4 after 5.

10-4 after 4.

8-4 as Orsak and Skinner go back to back. Orsak has 7 which sets a conference tournament record for home runs.

Scoreless 2nd.

Got 1 back.

Not a good start. Down 7-0 and on the 2nd pitcher. Cards coming to the bat. Just a field goal in the bottom of 1st would be nice.

Here we go!

Tournament note. Hammond native Basiel Williams hit a game trying homer against SELA in the 9th to send game to extras on Thursday and last night hit a walk off homer to send Nicholls to the finals. Did it against his hometown's University. He was one very excited young man.

Birds play Pokes at 1 as Nicholls sits waiting for the finals. SELA played Nicholls tough in both games of the tournament, but lost each by 1 run. So, if LU gets to finals they will be playing their 6th game and Nicholls will be playing their 4th. Can Johnny Wholestaff hold up and the bats keep rolling? Go Cards!

Winner. Await the outcome of SELA and Nicholls game to know tomorrow's game time.

Headed for 9 up by 9 with hopes of playing tomorrow at 9.

I know. I was wanting the same. Save all the pitching you can.

Greedy now aren't you! 😀

Not time to be rationale. Lol.

He got greedy! Grand slam!!!

Sacks jammed with no outs after a walk, double, and an intentional pass. Skinner at plate. Time to get greedy!!

10-9 as Pokes get an opposite field homer with 2 outs. Headed to 8th.

10-8 headed to bottom of the 7th. McNeese is bringing relievers with high ERA's.

Orsak with his 3rd homer of the game.

LU turns a 2-5-3 double play on a bunt attempt followed by a strike out. 8's headed to 7th.
