It's UMAC #1 VS. #2 This Weekend
This weekend the Saint Scholastica Saints baseball team will take to the field at Wade Stadium in Duluth against the #2 team in the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference, the Martin Luther College Knights. The Saints enter the three game series with record of 25-3 overall and 13-0 in the UMAC, while the Knights come to Duluth with a 17-10 overall record and a 14-1 record in the UMAC. The Saints will take to the field for the first time since they had their 22 game winning streak snapped last Sunday by the #25 ranked St. Thomas Tommies. The Knights enter the weekend on a modest four game winning streak following a sweep of the Minnesota-Morris Cougars last weekend at Mueller Park in New Ulm, MN.
The Knights are led by junior Jeff Dolan, who has started all 22 of the Knights games and is batting a robust .434 with 2 doubles, 2 triples, and 11 RBIs. The Knights also will bring senior outfielder Shane Krause who has also started all 22 games for the Knights and is batting .370 with 6 doubles, 2 triples, and is leading the Knights with 4 homeruns. Leading the Knights on the mound is senior Nate Hochmuth who has a 5-1 record and has started 7 games for the Knights. Hochmuth has pitched 4 complete games for the Knights and has struck out 29 batter in 45.1 innings of work.
Make sure to make it down to the Wade this Friday at 3:00 PM and Saturday at Noon to catch the Saints and the Knights as they battle atop the UMAC standings. We have also received word that this Friday marks the opening of the concession stand at the Wade, and that the City of Duluth has turned the water on, meaning the restrooms are up and running! So, anybody who used the indoor bathrooms last weekend, the city plumber would like to talk to you. Plus, that's kinda gross. Anyway, we have also heard that Wade Stadium has received permission from the college (and the nuns) to sell beer during CSS games! So, come on down to the Wade this weekend for some good baseball, a couple of hot dogs, a hamburger, and some ice cold Budweiser! We'll see you there!
