No Major Crisis So Far Today

The day has started and so far no major crisis to upset the world as I know it. I'm not talking about world events but I'm talking about my life as I live it every day.

I'm more worried about whether the next coach likes to be interviewed than whether we make world peace with the Arab world.

So far today there is peace in my world no major crisis.

The North Carolina-ECU super regional is starting at 12.00 noon Saturday. The first game is on ESPN-U and the second an if needed third will be at noon Sunday and Monday on ESPN-2.

I have mentioned this several times but I need to close the book on him this year. Xavier Macklin the former Nash Central baseball star was voted to the MEAC all conference team as a freshman. X-man hit 361 on the season, he lead the league in Home Runs 11, rbi's 46 and in total bases 129. Remember he was only a freshman this year.

Matt Hill the sophomore golfer for N C State who won the NCAA championship last week became only the second golfer in NCAA history to win his conference championship, the regional in which he played and then the national Championship. The only other golfer ever to do that? Tiger Woods.

Getting back to NCAA baseball coverage. All four ACC teams that are alive can be seen on some sort of TV this weekend on the ESPN network of channels. Starting at noon Friday ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, and even on your computer ESPN-360. There will be some sort of game on starting at noon Friday until about midnight Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Then Monday if the third games are needed until all series are over.

Regardless of which one it is there will be a North Carolina team in the College World Series which will make next weekend interesting.

I honestly don't think ECU has the pitching to beat Carolina.
