Well, the regionals are over and there have been surprises galore. And a scandal or two. Only 3 of the 8 national seeds survived. The Cowboys of OSU got busted for a bat with a flattened side, yet still advanced. Clemson got hosed out of hosting a Super Regional because the head of the committee that assigns the Regional and Super Regional sites is the Mississippi State Athletic Director. Michigan, a #2 seed, knocks off the #1 national seed and still has to travel (Big Blue didn't submit a bid for the Super Regional host in time) to Oregon State, a #3 seed. Four of the Super Regionals will start on Friday and the other four will start on Saturday. This round is best 2 out of 3. Here are the match ups:
Series that begin on Friday
Chapel Hill - North Carolina versus The USC
Houston - Rice versus Texas A&M
Louisville - Louisville versus Oklahoma State
Starkville - Mississippi State versus Clemson
Series that begin on Saturday
Corvallis - Oregon State versus Michigan
Fullerton - Cal State Fullerton versus UCLA
Tempe - Arizona State versus Ole Miss
Wichita - Wichita State versus UC Irvine
And finally, here are the current standings:
1. Mike Lawson - 21 points
2. Rhyne Stowe - 16 points
3. Melissa Murdaugh - 15 points
4. Jason Williams - 14 points
4. Roland Hundley - 14 points
6. Mark Heckle - 12 points
The standings will be updated after the Super Regional round. Good luck to everyone!
