Another week and even more games! Over the next 4 days (Thursday-Sunday) there will be just over 350 games taking place all across the country. We take a quick look into 3 series this week that we think are going to play a big role in rankings, as well as see how some teams will match up against some of the countries best.
#23 Crowder vs #25 North Iowa area
Here are two teams that usually don't get started till a few weeks later in the season just due to the fact that they play in cold weather most of the time. And what would you know this series is already being questioned because of Weather. This is the first time out for both teams and it should be a good series all in all.
NIACC is coming into a new era with a new head coach in Drew Sannes after the former Head Coach Travis Hergert accepted the MILB assistant Pitching Coordinator Job with the Phillies. That though doesn't mean there is not a lot to look forward to for NIACC. Coming into the year they have a lot of upside. Being one of the Top teams in Iowa coming into the season. They are lead on the field by Utility SO Dylan Danielson (Oral Robertson), and SO Infielder Anthony Catalano (ULL) both look to lead the charge for them at bat and in the field.
For Crowder, they come to the weekend having played 2 games already. As of writing this, they are 1-0 with an 11-7 win over Labette on the 1st of February. So far their offense in that one game was led by Rod Criss who went 3-5 with 3 Doubles, 3 RBI’s, and 2 runs, and Josh Patrick who also went 2-3 with a run and 1 walks.
