3 seed in the College Park regional vs Wake Forest.

Anyone else notice how the commentator was talking about the eventual Wake Forest Maryland matchup? Uh, guys? I wouldn’t be at your house on that matchup happening.

Wake is a tough 2 seed but we should have a decent contingent of fans there.

This regional looks good for UConn

It's all about pitching depth. I think UConn has a tough Wake starter in the first game, but our pitching depth gives us a good chance.

Details of Shipley. Its playing surface is FieldTurf (dirt mound) and the dimensions are 320 down the left field line, 385 to center and 325 down the right field line.

Maryland is number 2 in team home runs with 121. Wake is number 7 with 108.

Good game time for me, avoids an evening conflict with the Norwich Sea Unicorns playing at home that night.
