First place in the A-10 and just a few wins from their all-time best record. D1Baseball has them in the tournament right now.
We will have to win the conference tournament to get a bid because the A-10 is a terrible conference for baseball. We would also get a 4-seed, which are the equivalent of a 13-16 seed in basketball.
But I will be so psyched if this happens. The baseball tournament has become one of my favorite sporting events. College baseball is nuts. Only a few teams have more than two quality starting pitchers or one good bullpen arm. That means no lead is safe. Also, the first round of regionals are double elimination, so managers will regularly do things like let a freshman left fielder who has only pitched four innings all year start in the most important game of the season or let a starter throw for 145 pitches.
This is Vandy’s tournament to lose this year. The Vandy Boys won the last title. Their starting pitching is nuts with Al Leiter’s kid and Kumail Rocker, who threw a 15-K no-hitter in the last tournament. Leiter is probably the top pick in this year’s draft and Rocker is Top 5.
