Started the out with a 10-0 win. Lots of offense - 13 hits, lots of pitching - 4 hit shutout. Hope to keep that going all weekend.
GSU also lost to UNCG tonight, so thats good too.

Another win and another GSU loss - we are currently atop the SoCon! Three-way tie right behind us with GSU, UNCG and CofC all 13-6. Another game of good offense and a good game by Girdwood - 3 hits and 1 run over 8.

Does anyone know what's going on with Webb & when he might return to a starters role?

We owe a big thanks to G!!
Girdwood is fitting in pretty nicely as a weekend starter....I bet his draft stock is starting to rise again.

Sweep is complete and UNCG swept GSU! Another game of solid hitting it seemed like and Dylan Clark went a strong 7 giving up only 2. Glad we won these games against a team we should beat, but actually dropped RPI spots based on Davidson being so weak.
UNCG and CofC are tied behind us now with a key series against each other next weekend in Charleston - we will be down there to play Citadel as well. GSU gets Wofford and Davidson at home back to back here so they will probably get some wins there.

Just keep winning. That's the best thing you can do.
Just curious, does anybody know if there's a way to watch games online? As much fun as I have watching games via the online gamecasts, I'd much rather watch the team live again. I miss it.

GSU also still has to go to Boone.
UNCG has: @cofc, vs. CIT, @ Wofford CofC has: vs. UNCG, vs. App, @ Samford

Webb is on the MLB equivalent to the 15 day DL after straining his back during the Wofford series and then aggravated it against CofC. Hopefully back against Citadel.

Glad to see the team rebound and get a big series sweep. It's amazing how much things can swing from one week to the next.
UNCW on Tuesday and then a Citadel team that had Elon's number last year. Despite their record, that series in Charleston makes me very nervous. Hopefully they can take at least 2 of 3.
I assume in the CofC vs UNCG series the best thing for Elon would be CofC to take 2 of 3 against UNCG, since UNCG would own the tiebreaker against Elon. Of course GSU losing at least one to Wofford would help as well.
It's the homestretch and hope to see the guys finish strong.
Go Phoenix!

I agree with the Citadel series - they dont have a good record this year, but have a lot of talent and pitching on that team. Plus they always play us tough. Getting 2 of 3 would be great. If we can do that in both of our final series then another team would have to win out to pass us or win 8 of 9 to tie us. I would say that GSU has the best chance to win out with their schedule but they would need to do that to tie if we can go 2-1 on each of our series.
