Shocker SB at Northern Iowa

[1972Shocker]

Disappointing day. Shocks need to try to find themselves between now and the Valley Tournament and see what they can do in the tournament.

Other Series

Southern Illinois 1-1 Indiana State

Drake 2-0 Missouri State

Bradley 1-1 Loyola


All of those series lost one game to the weather. Illinois State at Evansville is still in progress with two games today and one on Sunday. The results of that series will determine if there is a chance the Shocks can drop all the way to fifth.

On Saturday Illinois State squeaked by Evansville in both games of their DH, 18-0 and 10-1.

Regardless of the outcome of today's game the Shocks will be in 4th place 1-game behind SIU. Looks like 3rd will be the best the Shocks can hope for.

They will lead Evansville by 2 or 3 games depending on the outcome of their game against ILS today. The are 3.5 games up on 6th place MSU.

But the big hurt is losing ground and more likely losing hope for a top two finish and a bye in the Vallley Tournament.

Update: The final game of the Illinois State-Evansville series was cancelled. So the Shocks are in 4th, 1 game behind SIU and 2.5 games ahead of Evansville.
