Round And About

Had one of those weekends with a lot going on and only drove by Wesleyan Saturday afternoon and there was a good crowd watching the USA-South Tennis action at the new tennis venue at NCW.  Rode on in to town and as I passed the Sports Complex was amazed at the amount of cars there until I realized that there was a little league tournament going on while USA-South Softball was at the other end of complex.  More people watching the little league.

College volley ball is going through spring drills just like football and Sunday Campbell VB took part in a beach volleyball tournament in Fort Fisher State Park.  UNCW. Campbell, UNCG and Winthrop all had two person teams there and there was a day of interesting VB.  Beach VB is more athletic because those big people who would normally just work the net had to cover all the space.  Much more different strategy  in beach as there is not as much blocking as in the gym with six people on each side.  Very nice day and didn't get burnt to a frazzle since the temp never got above 70.

Gone all day Sunday and had to watch the Masters replay once I got home.  It is hard to skipped the commercials when the Masters doesn't have many.  I like Adam Scott and glad he finally won a big one.

The latest RPI rankings after this weekends college baseball and Carolina is #3.  Florida St is 6th,Virginia is 7th.  Virginia Tech loses six games in the last two weekends but when it is to Carolina and State their RPI only dropped to 13th.  Miami 15th, Georgia Tech 17th, Clem 18 and N C State 20th.  Interesting State sweep BC this weekend but BC RPI is under 200 so State fell further in the RPI than Va Tech.

Tuesday night is rivalry night in the Big East as right now the top two square off  with Fike and Hunt.  One of those will lose and Rocky Mount and Northern Nash both with two losses the winner will join the loser tied with two losses.  Nash Central and Southern Nash both need  wins or the playoffs will be slipping away for the loser.
