How about embarrassing UNCC Charlotte RPI was below 150.DeltAlumnus said
We will fall out of the top 25 in most polls and killed any lead we had with USM or Rice.
These losses will haunt us.

A couple years ago, we had a midweek game that should have been about 2:45 long take an extra 45 minutes to play while umps figured out where they should position themselves as they had no idea whatsoever they were doing out there. Just out of curiosity, I'm going to see if I can find that score sheet and see if there are any similarities. I know I wrote in my game notes about the umps' bizarre behavior that day. The good umps never show in my notes. The vast majority of the time, there is little noteworthy, perhaps nothing more than being meek with his strike calls (we have two that are very quiet and barely make any hand signals or are "front pumpers" instead of "sidewinders" when calling strikes, some notoriously late with their calls, etc., so I know what to expect during the game). The vast majority of the time there is nothing to write about. But, I think I've written more notes this year than the past few years combined. Today I have copious notes.

I may be stating the obvious, but Charlotte played us tough. I think we had a better team. But they took it to us and didn't stop. Hats off to them. And yes MLB, the umps have been interesting to say the least.But they were not why we lost.

I think if you look up how many teams win when they give up 5 unearned runs in a game let alone an inning the win percentage is going to be very low. Good that they fought for 15 innings, bad that they allowed themselves to be put in that position.

How is this pouring salting the wounds?
Everything I said was true.
I am upset we lost and these losses in a tight race will haunt us. We are way better than this shouldn't be losing to this team.
Get a grip.

Following a tremendous relief performance that covered 7.1 shutout innings and allowed just two hits at No. 12 Florida Atlantic, Charlotte junior LHP Holden Capps has earned the Conference USA Pitcher of the Week award. The C-USA Hitter of the Week is shared by Charlotte freshman DH Drew Ober, who had 11 hits and eight RBI on the week, and Louisiana Tech junior 2B Jordan Washam, who also notched 11 hits, along with six RBI and four runs scored, while leading the Bulldogs to three road victories.
