Hard to get a good read here...they lost to Marshall (sweep), Wofford, Furman and Alabama State, but they also recently knocked off the #4 team in the country and had to go to extras with USC Upstate last night...Its not out of the realm of possibility to be sure

Rain should hold off until late Friday night. Heaviest may fall Saturday around noon so they may still be able to get the games in.

Liberty wins 4-3 as Niggli sticks his glove out and says "well look what I found!"

Best 25 game start in school history

Wow. As a guy who goes nuts for football and track, but only casually follows baseball, I have found myself checking this forim several times per day for updates. I'm learning a lot about the team and am really pumped to see their success so far this year!

Liberty has only allowed 5 runs or more in a game 5 times in the first 26 games...that's sick...and it looks like these are guys who arent being extended farther than they need to be either (a regular issue mentioned by some of our membership)

Am I correct to assume that you guys still aren't 100% healthy either? Scary, especially the pitching. You all might have a little treat in store for Coastal when they head your way later in the season.

I think we will get better as the year progresses, and be a tough out in the conference tourney. We can't buy any breaks on the health front so far either.

Likely just rest with the quad. He played in game 1, so I assume they don't want to push it.

It would might be a blessing if we can get the game in tom. and have several days off in a row. We need to rest guys like Wimmer, Robertson, Cox, Haley etc. I'd be intersted to know about Dudley, we haven't seen him since UVA and the back spasms. I think we will really need him down the stretch, especially in tournment play.
