SWEEP!

With the 3 game sweep of Sewanee on the frozen mountain, the Petrels have set themselves up for a playoff berth. The magic number to clinch is 2. 2 OU wins, 2 Sewanee losses or an OU win and a Sewanee loss will send us to our first playoffs since 2004.

Nick Greenfield recorded 2 wins in 9 ininngs pitched.
Tim Ernst recorded two saves.
Sean Tuttle came within one out of a complete game victory.

Offensively every one contributed...Two out hits were the key.

Game 1: Down by one in the last inning with none on and two outs the Petrels rallied for two runs. Game 3: None on and two out the Petrels send 7 to the plate and score 3 runs.

Rizzo had an outstanding weekend, Lucas knocked in some HUGE runs. Ernst continued his hot pace. The bottom of the lineup including Archer, Anderson, Giddens and Stathakis were clutch.

Defensively we had the best weekend of play all year, on the worst field we've played on.

Final week of the regular season is upon us. @ Emory on Tuesday, @ LaGrange on Wednesday the onto DePauw. Time to start gaining momentum.....Win a couple of Non-conference, Georgia Cup games then win a couple of games at DePauw then onto the SCAC Divisional Playoff in Millington, TN.

Depauw does a great job with Live stats and Internet radio broadcasts. We will NOT be doing live stats, we'll let Depauw handle them. Here is the link to Depauw's website. The links are on the right.
