Chris Jones thinking the 10 run mercy rule may be in effect for this game (last game of a Big East series), so if Creighton doesn't score, the game might be over.

So ends a regular season that by all accounts on paper was exceptional and to me surprising based on how much we lost off of last year's team. Goal 1 accomplished, Onto the BET and then let's see where the chips fall. Perspective is interesting. We are bummed about probably losing out at hosting but not too long ago, making the tournament was a difficult enough proposition!!

I agree with your post, although I never get hung up over the idea of hosting like many people seem to do around here. I will say that I greatly enjoyed attending the 2010 regional in Norwich. One of these years I suspect it will happen again if UConn keeps making the NCAA Tournament.

I just want to make sure UConn makes the NCAA Tournament again, and at this point I highly suspect that will be the case again this season even if UConn does not take the Big East Tourney.

Here’s something impressive:

Last year we lost the final series to Gtown after losing zero series to that point. This year? We did not drop a single series the entire regular season. Quite a feat.
 
Dominant performance today. Awesome win! Great season so far. Let’s go get ‘‘em at the Big East Tournament. If our starting pitching holds up, I like our chances.

Bummed for Cooke. He looked like his old self and then had to leave. I hope he can come back this year. Any word on what the issue is?
 
I was at a memorial service for my ex brother in law today. A real good guy and former rugby teammate as well.…coming home to read this thread was really nice after that. Thanks for all the posts everyone! #HookC
 
Interesting note - After the fifth inning of the first game, UConn outscored Creighton 22-4 for the rest of the series.

Also, haven't seen the attendance for today's game yet, but they announced about 1400 for the opener and almost 2300 for last night's game. I don't know where they were all sitting, but not in view of the cameras, based on the replays I saw.
