A Sea Of Red

the flames hit the road for a huge weekend series against the bucs, with a single game saturday at 3pm and a doubleheader sunday starting at 11am. CSU (15-25 overall, 4-8 big south) is coming off a 7-2 loss to savannah state, but won their last big south series over winthrop. LU (22-23 overall, 9-6 big south) had a tough 11 inning loss to george mason of the glorious CAA on wednesday and looks to soldify itself in the upper half of the BSC standings. GO FLAMES!!!

Why the DH on Sunday? Just curious most of our conference series are Fri., Sat. & Sun. Anyway headed down tomorrow and will catch the game Saturday and some of the action Sunday.

Graduation is Saturday down there, from what I've been told.

Nice win today! Decent crowd of Flame fans here

LU takes the 2nd game of the series 13-2, as Umberger goes 6 1/2 innings for the win. Every starter but Rotola (who scored a run) gets a hit; Giammaresi with 3 RBI, and Grijalva with 4 RBI.

Game 3 just getting underway, as CSU scores 2 unearned in the first off of page. A sweep will be huge with a series with HPU coming up in two weeks as it appears VMI, LU, WU, and HPU will be battling for the 2-3-4 seeds and avoiding the play-in games.

I thought AG tore his groin? How's he playing?

Liberty was only up 5-2 going into the 9th and dropped an 8-spot in the 9th for the final margin

I'm assuming a great job by the team's Certified Athletic Trainer (and students) had much to do with getting him back on the field.

Liberty now leads 8-2 in the bottom of the 9th with the help of a 4-spot in the 7th inning

Ryan Page goes the distance as Flames win game 3 8-2 for the conference road sweep. That's big.

I miss AG

very nice weekend. the guys do what they were supposed to do and they did it in convincing fashion! we are now solely in 2nd with VMI third. great job flames!!

That's taking care of business, guys. The team can now focus on finals (and graduation, for some) before taking on the Lancers in the battle of the real LU vs the poser LU next weekend.
FWI,...former Flame Billy Daniels is the pitching coach for Longwood, and local (Brookville and LC) product Shawn Abell is the other Asst Coach.

Big wins for the team. Congratulations.

WOW! Second place. Go guys. What a great sweep!

After all of the grumbling the past month or so, it appears we are positioning ourselves very nicely to meet our ultimate goals.

Must have been some nice talent in the mix after all. Thanks to our previous staff.

checkmate....please let it go. i think all moderators have asked you to stop, so please give it a rest.

Good advise to let it go, no need. I think you will see some big changes next year based on the talent level of this years team. You might want to wait and see what happens and then post your thoughts.

Of course you are free to express what you wish, just don't dig a hole you can't get out of.

CM - I love you man! There you feel any better. I hope you will stop kicking your dog soon.
MR is gone. Storm is HERE! Deal!

knucklehead speaks the truth and has seen the light, like 99.9% of LU baseball fans have. CM will see the light in the near future.

i doubt he ever will see the light but there is a small glimmer of hope for him.

We need to all form the Checkers support group. You can do it CM you can you can! YAY!
