* SoCon - 4-seed Georgia Southern got revenge for an earlier 3-2 loss to 5-seed Appalachian State by eliminating the Mountaineers, 2-1. The Eagles used six pitchers to hold them to that lone run, with starter Ryan Frederick working just 1.2 innings. All told, they whiffed 9 ASU batters while walking just 1. GSU will need to beat 8-seed Furman (3-0) twice tomorrow to reach the tournament final. In today's second game, 2-seed Davidson and 6-seed Wofford also have elimination at stake. The Wildcats just took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the 1st.
* Southland - A wild day so far, as the top three seeds have all been knocked out. 2-seed Nichols State fell yesterday to 3-seed Texas A&M Corpus Christi, 3-2. Then this afternoon the Islanders met the same fate, losing to 7-seed McNeese State, 7-5. But the big blow came this morning from 5-seed Northwestern State, which sent top seed Sam Houston State home, 5-1. NSU is battling the 4-seed Lions of SE Louisiana right now, and the Demons are up 3-2 in the 8th. Later tonight, McNeese will play its second game of the day as they face 6-seed Central Arkansas.
