No doubt a big one for both teams. Can we finally put it all together?

Are there weather issues in Eastern Carolina? The game broadcast is now saying it will start at 7:45 EDT. The link on the Tulanegreenwave.com website brings you to ECU vs. UConn softball. Somebody in the TULANE Athletics Dept. should fix that quickly.
Edit: The game started a few minutes after 8 PM EDT. With one out and a 3-1 count to Hoese, one of the light towers went dark, and the game is temporarily suspended until it can get back online. The ECU announcers tell us that this has happened before, more than once! Now it seems that other lights are out as well.

Click the box below the softball game. Game started and is now in a delay as a light tower has gone out. You may know this already if you’re listening to Graf.

How can the problem be our pitching ?
After all we have a Tulane hall of fame pitcher as our pitching coach ....

This is just a precursor for the rest of this season. We can forget about RPI’s and what it might take to get into the NCAA’s. This team just doesn’t have it—despite the strong hitting, until last night. The pitching problems are well documented, and our fielding and base running continues to be suspect. Talent is critical, and Jewett just isn’t going to be able to reel in the talent we need. If you had a son, who was a very talented high school baseball player, would you want him playing in this program, for Jewett?

It is a state school of North Carolina, and is very much like Tulane in that a lot of their students aren't able to get into UNC so they go to ECU (a lot of ours, me included, couldn't get into an Ivy, so they go to Tulane.) Although it technically is a "directional school" most alumni would argue that it represents East Carolina meaning the Eastern region of both NC and SC. I don't totally get it myself, and I lived in NC my Senior year of HS. But they've had a very proud and supportive fan base, much more so than Tulane, for a long time. A huge part of it is that most of their alumni are from the Carolinas and stayed in the Carolina's after graduating.
That doesn't make them any better than Tulane, as we clearly are head and shoulders above them academically. It just means their a bigger school with a bigger and more loyal fan base.

Tulane leads 9 to 5 after coming back from a 5-0 deficit.
I guess math isn't a strong spot for ECU as their announcers just told us "ECU hasn't had this big of a deficit since early March when the Pirates fell behind 5-0 in the first inning. That was the Pirates biggest deficit until today against the Tulane offense."
'nut: Directional Universities vary in their athletic and academic successes. Western Connecticut, for example is just above a community college both academically and athletically. ECU is probably an equal to Appalachian St academically and MAYBE a step up athletically. But they have a great rowdy and loyal fanbase.

GREAT WIN after getting outscored 22-2 in the first 2 games.
Down 5-0, you come back!
Cellucci gives it his all!
Trent Johnson throws 2 DP pitches and, thank the Lord, the IF comes up with the one we needed.
We hit the krap out the ball!

It was VERY important not to get swept. Well done to rally from down 5-0 and not having a lead the entire weekend to salvage game 3. This Wave team doesn't give up, and neither should we. We still have a chance to finish 2nd in the conference and do damage in the conference tourney. The last few weekends of the regular season are critical, as we all know.
ROLL WAVE!

Needed the series win here. I remember there was a time when we go up there and sweep or series win those guys on a regular basis. Sad how low the expectations are hoping we don’t get swept nowadays. We still have Zero quality series wins. The committee won’t care about finishing 2nd if we have 0 quality series wins.
