Kent goes 44-11, wins MAC regular season, before the MAC tourney was ranked 23rd in the country, beat Osu, Penn State, Pitt, and another ranked team from the south, but can't get an at-large bid from NCAA. This conference gets absolutely zero respect!!!

Western Michigan is in the Louisville regional and faces Louisville in its opener later today. Ohio State and Wright State (both of which played the Rockets this season) are the other teams in the regional. That one's in progress as I'm typing. Buckeyes lead Wright State 5-2 in the fifth.

Tyler Burdick's (who played TE for the Rockets in the late 80's) son plays for Wright State...think he was all league as a FR this year.

Two and out for the Broncos. After losing 6-1 to Louisville, lost 10-3 to Wright State to end the season.

Too bad the Pecos League is not on the list; Santa Fe Fuego needs some help this year!

Ten Rockets earn academic All-MAC honors. Congratulations to them.

Great for him (and us). Local kid at every level, coached by former pro (recently let go by Genoa, hope he settles well somewhere local). Congrats to the kid, his hard work paid off.

According to twitter Zach Schwartzenberger '17 OF/P from Saline MI has committed (I assume that's a verbal) to the Rockets.
