Sad part is that they scored there six runs in an inning that should have ended with a double play before RU scored their first run. We could have a few more but some bad base running in the 7th cost us.

In regards to Liberty: the Flames need one victory over Radford to be locked into the tournament. There is a scenario I missed during the three hours of going over the tournament outlook that keeps Liberty out of the tournament:

-- Liberty is swept by Radford, Charleston Southern wins two of three against Coastal Carolina and Gardner-Webb wins two of three against Presbyterian. CSU (12-12) and G-W (11-12) would move ahead of Liberty (11-13). PC (11-13) would be tied with the Flames for eighth and the Blue Hose would own the tiebreaker by winning once against Coastal Carolina. Again, my apologies for missing that earlier. But, if Liberty wins once and finishes with a 12-12 record, the Flames are in based on owning the tiebreakers with CSU and Longwood.

-- Liberty also owns the tiebreaker over Winthrop (won two of three in Lynchburg). High Point took two of three from the Flames in High Point, N.C., to earn the tiebreaker there. If the tiebreakers come down to won-loss percentage versus No. 1 team in division, Liberty was swept by Campbell. Liberty was also swept by Coastal Carolina if that tiebreaker needs to be used in a non-division opponent tiebreaker.

Thanks, I missed that.

Sorry if the link doesn't work, I can only access the mobile version right now.

Liberty has not had a losing season since 2005 (Royer's last year I think), so not only do we need a win today or tomorrow to make the tournament, but we need one for that reason as well (this did snap our string of 30 win seasons though)
