Hate to see ACC go down. Ultimately hurts our RPI.

Wow. Great win for my good friend Shane Winkler. I spent Friday in . .
. . . Greenville watching his team play. The Pirates split with JMU at their place.

They forgot how to hit against Towson the next game and
Made a couple of bone head plays in the 7th on Sunday in the JMU rematch.

He lost his best player (catcher Stone) with a torn hammy on Saturday . . .
. . . I think it was the third C who was responsible for one of those 'bonehead' plays. I think he's still figuring out the pitching situation with his portal girls. If he finds some consistency there they should do OK in the league.

I was wondering what happened to Stone.
She was hitting the cover off the ball. Is the hammy a season ending thing? For their sake I hope not.

Shane was fearing that. I don't know at this point.

Look at ECU pitcher Sydney Rainford's stats in this game . . . .

Bingo! and no HBP. She threw only 106 pitches in 7 complete.

Agree with no walks/HBP. But also no errors which give extra
outs in an inning. Duke had 3 errors. No freebies and solid defense wins games.

I believe you said you weren’t impressed with Duke
Sounds like you were correct

Well Mizzou beat them and sadly, they are terrible.
They just can't hit. The SEC schedule is going to be even worse.

Do they care enough to let Anderson go?

I see fans calling for it, but I don't know enough about her
Situation with money owed and stuff like that to make a prediction. I really don't know the dynamic of the team well enough after 16 games to have an opinion.

They can hit it but pitching and defense are ??? They made 3 errors in . .
. . . today's loss. Their top 2 pitchers have almost as many BB as K's right now. Of course, they have played a 'real deal' schedule unlike their rivals down the street. BTW, I have it on VERY good authority that the ECU pitcher threw about 35% off-speed pitches today. So . . . . . ** Edited by MidloHokie at 2/24/2026, 8:59:10 PM
