The post season begins on Wednesday afternoon at JLJ with NDSU vs. SDSU at noon...that's an interesting matchup since the 3 seed Jacks have won 8 in a row.....then ORU battles WIU at 6pm....winners and losers match up the next day.....let the fun begin!....:eagles:

Great pitching by McGregor, Glaze and Stout....HR and 3 RBI by Cummings. WIU came back to tie it at 2 but the Good Guys pull it out late 5-2....So we have NDSU vs. WIU in an elimination game at noon tomorrow then ORU vs. SDSU at night.....Jacks are smokin' hot with 9 wins in a row and we are 40-14....great match up. Does ORU go with Ausua or McMinn???...:geek:

Looks like WIU has one foot out the door....3 early errors and they trail the Bison, 6-1 in the 2nd inning of the elimination game going on now....:geek:

NDSU advances with an 11-4 win over WIU....the Leathernecks head home....loser tonight will play the Bison tomorrow at 6pm with winner of that game advancing to the finals on Saturday afternoon vs. tonight's winner...so it goes without saying that tonight's ORU-SDSU game is huge....win tonight and you only need one win to get the title....lose and you have to win 3.......:geek:

McCutchin is the star tonight with 3 hits and a huge pitching effort getting out of an 8th inning jam with a huge DP ending the SDSU 9 game streak. McMinn with 7 strong innings holds the Jacks to 4 hits in the 5-3 win. So ORU in the drivers seat off until Saturday afternoon and Ausua on the mound in the finals. The Jacks and Bison go at it tomorrow night in an elimination game....:eagles:

Nice win for the Good Guys, 5-3.  Now we are off until Noon on Saturday.  Go Golden Eagles!

ORU showed a lot of grit by grinding out these last two games....close ones that could have gone either way late....but now we are one win away from an NCAA bid....NDSU and SDSU will need 3 wins and its unlikely either team has the pitching depth to accomplish that feat. These are the kind of games a team must win to advance in post season play...small ball and good pitching.... TheEagleman is proud of Folmar and the boys....:oru-logo:

Arguably ORU's best pitcher right now Ausua vs. the 4th starter for NDSU or SDSU on Saturday....those teams have to play Friday night...hope that game goes 16 innings......TheEagleman likes our chances....:-P
