Yep, it is happening like it did last year. Today at 4pm UVa plays UMd in the NCAA playoffs. Virginia was victorious last year, and they went all the way to the final game in Omaha. Both teams have had up-and-down seasons, but appear to be peaking at the right time now. Starting pitchers are Mike Shawaryn (13-2) for Maryland and Connor Jones (6-2) for Virginia.
I would have to say Maryland appears likely to go farther than UVa this year. Both knocked off higher rated teams recently to get to today’s game. And Virginia lost some of their best players from last year. The best of three tournament will begin today on the U.Va. home field.
Really exciting win for VA. massive, timely blast at the end. Nats gotta get things turned around, but I’m not convinced Clip is the answer. The good guys are back to being too streaky. of course if they can go on a few runs like May they’ll be fine!
