Hokies canceled game with Marshall and caught more social media flak for it than #2 UNC canceling against Wingate. UNC decided not to cancel this week against UNCW.
Series against Clemson already in progress. Up 5-1 in the 7th.
Tomorrow is at 3pm on ACCNX
Saturday is at 1pm on ACCNX

D1 had Tech firmly into the ncaa tournament. As the 3 seed in the Morgantown regional
Hokies won 5-1
PLAY THE DAMN SCHEDULED GAMES!
Ok
Less games means the Hokies fewer chances to break out the Hammer. The same hammer which i included in your current profile pic for that Liberty series several years ago.
Well if the team wins today or tomorrow. We'll very likely see some extra postseason baseball
I still have my doubts and I'm fully prepared to see VT get left off the NCAAT unless they win the ACCT
Every bracketogly site has Tech firmly in. If tech gets to 15 acc wins. They are in
I want to believe, I'm just not going to allow myself to. Especially after the ladies got screwed with hosting, then get double-tapped by L$U, it's furthering fuel for the ESPN-&EC superiority complex. If we're on the bubble along with ANY $EC team I expect the $EC team to get the nod and we get left home.
Down 1 to 0 in the 9th and we tied it and then beat them on a 1 & 3rd pickle. Runner got caught between 1st and 2nd they chased him down but the runner made it home!
That was truly fun to watch, and perfectly executed by both runners. They had them in a pickle for sure.
SOUND UP....
Not even a baseball fan, fantastic call.
Hokies has clinched a top 8 seed in the acc tournament. They will be getting a first round bye
It's something. Still pains me to know we could have played ourselves into a double-bye over the last few weeks if we had played a bit better.
Hokies up 4-1 in 2nd
Welp...didnt last long.
Trail 6-4 now in 3rd. Gave up a 5 spot in 3rd inning.
Hokies make it 6-5 on a Sac Fly
For all the shit the Wahoos talked about baseball, they trail Louisville 7-0 in the 7th. A loss and they finish 14-16 in the ACC.
Hokies can finish no worse than 15-15.
BooHoos lise 10-5
Clemson playing bullshit delaying tactics in bottom of 6th. Mound visit, infield huddle, mound visit to switch pitchers
Unfortunately it worked. Failed to score 1st/3rd with one out.
Bullpen games are so tough to follow.
Ten pitchers so far combined in 6 1/3rd
Bottom of 9th up to 15 pitchers now
Make it 16 now. Clemson's third pitcher in the 9th inning
FFS...17 PITCHERS...4TH Clemson pitcher in the 9th
7-5 Clemson lead now
8-5. Mental errors and wild pitches followed by singles
9-5 on solo homer in 8th
Load the bases in 8th but fail to score
12 Seniors on this team recognized for Senior Day today.
10-5 on another solo Homer. Crushed it halfway up the roof of the building in left center
10-6 on a FC
Cooke makes it 10-8 now with two run RBI single with bases loaded
Ethan Ball HBP for 2nd Time today to load bases again
Welp Lutterman pops out to CF.
Hokies lose 10-8
Hokies finish 15-15 in ACC play. Believe it makes them the 7 seed in ACC Tournament because Miami upset #11 FSU today so think they finish 16-14.
You are correct. Hokies will be playing at 5 on Wednesday
Hokies drop to 47th in RPI
Somehow with today's loss and results of other games we dropped TEN spots in RPI. No way in hell a loss to 46 RPI Clemson should drop us that significantly. No combination of factors this late in the season should move anyone that much.
Drops us behind NC State, Texas State, Clemson, Troy and ECU. May mean the Hokies have to find a way to win two games in ACC Championship, hope both NC State and Clemson lose first round and those other bubble teams also struggle in conference tournaments.
Clemson winning only moved them up to 44
So Klempson was a Quad 4 loss.
Another reason RPI is garbage
1000%. It works for football and maybe basketball to a degree but its trash for diamond sports.
Like I've been saying, we're gonna get screwed out of the NCAAT to get another &EC team in. I don't want to be right. We need to win the ACCT to feel comfortable getting to the tournament.
