Cold Conference Call and Class
Catch-up
 Let
us just tell you first-hand … Buffalo is not the ideal place to play baseball in
early April. However, there were conference games on the schedule [at Canisius]
and we were determined to win them no matter how cold it was. After dropping the
first game of the series, we rebounded by scoring double-digit runs in game two
in a 13-3 victory. Sunday, our bullpen was able to piece it together in the end
and it was another game three win for the Red Foxes, this time by a score of
7-3. It was a good series win for us leaving the weekend 4-2 in conference and
19-6 overall.
This week we won at
Bucknell 13-1 on Tuesday before hosting Holy Cross on Wednesday, which was a 6-5
victory in 10 innings. Mid-week games allow for pitchers like us to stay back on
campus and attend class. Since neither of us is scheduled to pitch, our coach
will let us stay back and catch up on any schoolwork we’re behind on. Through
the grueling schedule of spring, 54 games and taking a full class load, things
can become very busy. Staying home for mid-week games like Bucknell can be very
helpful in continuing academic success.
We continue our MAAC
schedule this weekend as Rider will come to town. Rider, the defending MAAC
champion, will be a tough test, one we will be ready for. The three-game set
will begin with a doubleheader at noon on Saturday, followed by a single game
Sunday.
