It seems that in baseball on all levels that it is not all that easy to sweep a series. Thus, getting at least 4 conference sweeps in a season is a pretty impressive thing.

 

[BlueWolf25]

After a couple blowout wins, I love seeing this team fight back from a late deficit to close out a huge sweep. That’s the kind of mentality that’s needed in postseason baseball

 

[dbmill]

A mention of how UConn baseball has been fighting so many injuries, big and little, this season.
