Wow. Wasn't just a few years ago we were winning like three games a year?

Great news!

I think Xavier generally enters the A-10 about 3-20 and them rips off a 20-10 A-10 record or something along that lines. Things are definitely looking up for Xavier baseball, but the baseball version of the A-10 makes the basketball version of the A-10 look like the NBA Western Conference

In fairness to the A-10 though, Northern baseball is just a big pile of suck regardless of the conference. The Big Ten...bad. The Big East...also terrible.

Not shocking that the team farthest to the south, is the defending champion of the A-10, and the team that's favored in 2009.

[ATL Muskie]

I'd like to see those teams play OSU on a snow-covered field in February and see how they fare.

Wait, wrong thread......

Good to hear that X baseball is on the rise. I love college baseball.

Big Greased does suck, other than Louisville, who just happens to have a nephew of mine, a 6:6 left handed red-shirt freshman pitcher, on the roster.

[GoMuskies]

And Louisville mostly sucks. They just had one ridiculous run. Their 3B this year is a freaking monster.

Can we move this to the smack board, so I can have some fun?

I love baseball season :)
