I've got to be honest, this is a split series that worries me every year. It's always a mid week game that seems to sneak up on the team. BUT, I'm glad the pulled out a slim 9 run win All kidding aside, congrats to the team for the season sweep of HPU!

I see that Warrennolan.com now has us listed as a "team in danger." We're only one of two teams in the top 60 with that distinction. Here's another interesting note: 12 of our 17 losses have come to the RPI top 50, with 7 of those losses against RPI top 10. Now, Kennedy could have taken the easy way out like another team in our conference (*cough App), and padded the schedule with weak teams But that didn't happen. This team still has 16 teams remaining on the sked with WFU, UNCW and ECU OOC and a top tier SoCon team in WCU. Still lots of time to heat up and gain some impressive wins.

yes we are but that's because of the negatives we have give it a week or so i think we will be back as a regular team again. The things that are holding us back are the under 500 out of conf record and the low past 10 games. If we sweep wofford this weekend and take care of business at uncw we should be out of the danger zone

I have also heard the overall record of just 5 games over .500 being a slight negative as well. But with 3 of 4 weaker SoCon opponents upcoming we may be able to push that out. If you look at the RPI needs report at Boyds World: www.boydsworld.com/baseball/rpi/rpineeds.html we are in line to finish with a pretty decent RPI and we should be top 3 in the conference. I would think that combined with at least a win or two in the SoCon tourny we would be safe.

So far, most of the (way too early IMO) NCAA tournament predictions that I've seen have us in.

And considering we just lost another series to a lower tier conference foe doesn't bode well......
