the flames hit the road for their final big south series to take on the keydets. VMI (33-17 overall, 9-9 big south) is coming off a 5-4 loss to ODU. game times are 7pm friday and saturday, and 2 pm sunday. the flames are third in the conference and i think could move up to second providing we take two games in the series and winthrop loses two to coastal. would we not own the tie-breaker since we swept winthrop?? SJ, are you gonna go to saturday night's game??

[SuperJon]

It's possible. It depends on if I get someone to go with and/or what I do on Friday.

I was invited down to a 3rd round playoff game by a high school coach in NC that I may go to tomorrow night. If I go to that, I doubt I'll have they money/gas to go over to VMI. It all depends on when I get paid too.

[bigsmooth]

im gonna go sat. night tentatively. let me know your plans.

[SuperJon]

I'd love to go, especially to see their new stadium.

[BJWilliams]

Winning this series (especially with the events of this week) will be huge for these guys going into the tournament

[BJWilliams]

4-0 Flames in the 8th (the Live Stats from the VMI site are not being too helpful but I was able to glean that a bit) and we are still batting

[Sly Fox]

It was scoreless until we scratched out four runs of which only one was earned.

Its now 4-0 in the bottom of the 9th.

[BJWilliams]

Liberty wins 4-0 David Stokes goes 7 innings for the win

[Sly Fox]

A 4th straight quality victory over a Big South contender would be reason enough to celebrate. But it being the first real contest after our tragic week makes it all the sweeter.

[BJWilliams]

I was saying a few posts earlier that this series is even more important beyond the conference seeding implications after the events of this week

[krh44]

Nice win and some good coverage on the Roanoke news some highlights of the game and talking to Royer

[PAmedic]

way to go guys- one down, 2 to go

lets go out on a high note

[Sly Fox]

We dropped today's game 5-3 in Lexington.

[prototype]

Now we just have to rest all our pitchers. You knew we wouldn't throw our top guys this weekend, other than Stokes, with this series being so close to the BSC Tournament.

My guess is Vaden is starting today.

[krh44]

Looks like Page is on the mound

[Coastal89]

6-1 Coastal in the top of the 4th, if this keeps up LU should be the #2 seed.

[Sly Fox]

Tied at 5 in the top of the 6th as best I can tell from that Stat tracker at VMI.

[krh44]

Proto was right - Vaden did start they had Page on the live stats page

[PAmedic]

6-1 Coastal in the top of the 4th, if this keeps up LU should be the #2 seed.

Ian over on HPU board reporting that 1st and 2nd seeds will be whomever wins or loses the CCU/WU series this weekend, w/ LU being able to do no better than 3rd.

I'm no good w/ stats- so will let you guys hash that one out

[Fumblerooskies]

WU is 15-5; LU is 13-7. That puts us two down with one to play...No way we can jump to 2nd.

[Coastal89]

My bad, I thought you guys beat VMI yesterday.

[Sly Fox]

VMI leads 8-5 in the 7th.

[krh44]

LU up 9-8 now

[Sly Fox]

Terrific turn of events. It would sure be nice to head intot he tourney with some momentum.

[krh44]

Going to 9th LU up 10-9
