Just watched Davidson baseball beat UNC for the second time in three days to win the Chapel Hill Regional in the NCAA baseball tournament and advance to the Super Regionals. The Wildcats are now only two wins from the College World Series.

Interestingly, there are a lot of parallels between Davidson & W&M. Both highly-selective with regard to admissions and very demanding academically. And like W&M, Davidson's athletics are not well-funded compared to power conference schools. Davidson has only 3 baseball scholarships. Davidson's roster is filled with smart kids whose future is not in baseball ... for example, their top pitcher is going to Pharmacy school when the season ends.

Given the similarities between Davidson & W&M, it makes you realize that as well as Tribe baseball did in 2016 -- winning the CAA tourney, eliminating UVA in the Charlottesville Regional and making it to the NCAA Regional final -- with a few breaks, the Tribe could have potentially advanced to the Super Regionals. Also gives you hope for W&M's Cinderella chances in future NCAA post-season play.
