La Crosse falls in World Series championship opener

May 27, 2015 By Bill Scott

NCAA Baseball Championship logoIt was a long day for the UW-La Crosse Eagles on Tuesday.  La Crosse was able to reach the best-of-three championship round against top-ranked SUNY-Cortland by holding on to beat Trinity University of Texas 10-7 in an elimination game.  The game included a 5 hour, 4 minute rain delay.

The Eagles would need to pick up and face Cortland in game 1 of the best-of-three championship, but they fell behind by 5 runs early and lost the championship opener 11-3.

Game 2 is set for 11 a.m. this morning.  La Crosse needs a win to force a third and deciding game later today.

It’ll be a tall order for the Eagles, trying to find a way to beat the number-1 team in the nation twice.  La Crosse (36-15) is looking for its first National title.

Cortland (44-4) is in the same boat.

Warhawks shoot for World Series crown today

May 27, 2014 By Bill Scott

UW-Whitewater will be well rested when facing Emory today for the NCAA Division 3 College World Series Championship.  The Warhawks had yesterday off and will be shooting for their second World Series title, having won back in 2005.

The Warhawks are 3-0 in the double-elimination tournament and 43-7 on the season.  They’ll need to win just once to claim the title.  If Whitewater loses the opener, then a second Championship game would be played.

Emory comes into the game swinging a hot bat.  They combined to score 25 runs on 33 hits in a pair of elimination victories over Southern Maine and St. Thomas on Monday.

The Warhawks carry a 10-game win streak into play today.  Winning the championship would mean Whitewater would gain its first-ever sweep of the three major sports…football, men’s basketball and baseball, all in the same year.
