Very on brand for these programs that both Troy and West Virginia are starting transfers from Division II on the mound in Game 1 of the CWS.

On March 11, Troy dropped to 5-7 with a loss at Vanderbilt. In the dugout, Skylar Meade told his team: “Don’t feel sorry for yourself. It’s about getting better, just getting f—ing better.”

Troy is six outs away from advancing to the Super Regionals. I spent the day with the Trojans when they played at Vanderbilt in March.

His mom Erin called him “The Baby Giraffe”. Still looks like one. We lost her 10 months ago last week. She was watching today. What a special team around him. #GBR

4 of the 8 teams in the 2025 CWS didn’t make the NCAA Tournament this year. 3 of the 4 that did lost on Day 1. Arkansas is the only one that is in the winners bracket today.

"Milwaukee, in the field for the first time since 2010, is allowing opponents an OPS of .866 — the highest mark among the 64 teams in the NCAA Tournament."
Milwaukee 10, Auburn 0 B4 (Auburn with 1 hit)
