For a complete rebuild we have accomplished a lot more than I thought we would. It sucks to watch us lose recently but we are playing a very difficult schedule -- more difficult than most realize.

Wins against RPI > 200 teams:
---
2 wins against 133 RPI (Little Rock)
1 win against #18 ranked Iowa
2 wins against 193 RPI (Long Beach State)
1 win against 18 RPI (Nebraska)
3 wins against 150 RPI (Gonzaga)
2 wins against 167 RPI (UAB)
1 win against 75 RPI (Kansas)

While the vast bulk of our losses have been to quality teams.

NCAA tournament level teams:
---
1 loss to #14 ranked Virginia (we got robbed)
1 loss to 32 RPI (Auburn)
2 losses to 25 RPI (Oklahoma)
1 loss to 18 RPI (Nebraska)
2 losses to 26 RPI (K-State)
2 losses to 24 RPI (Oklahoma State)

And three painful losses to South Florida, but they aren't as bad as we thought:
---
3 losses to 79 RPI (South Florida)

These losses are the truly painful ones to give away:
---
1 loss against 133 RPI (Little Rock)
1 loss to 193 RPI (Long Beach State)
1 loss to 167 RPI (UAB)

Moved.

[Kung Wu]

Shox down 2-0 in the 6th but Favors sitting on 8 Ks.

[Kung Wu]

Lets tie it up here!

1-2 FAU winning, but Shox got a run and a little momentum.

[Kung Wu]

2-2 tied up!

[Kung Wu]

Favors with 9 Ks now.

[Kung Wu]

2-3 FAU ... bats are cranking for both teams now. Gonna be a nail biter.

[ShockerFever]

This team has finally lost it.

[Kung Wu]

I'm not giving up on this match just yet. Our bats are starting to connect.

[Kung Wu]

Quality soccer players can bend a ball either direction, based on the circumstance.

Is it the same with pitchers? Do they have the ability to curve both directions or generally only one?

Seems like it would be only one or you would have some awkward wrist action, but I know nussing.

[Kung Wu]

Aight, lets go Shox. Claw back in.
