UW-Superior is no pushover this year. The Yellowjacks are in the midst of it’s best season in over a decade. Superior enters this weekend’s four-game series vs. UW-Whitewater in third place in the WIAC with an 8 & 8 record. The Yellowjackets are 18 & 16 overall.
Superior has improved its record in each of the past four seasons. From 2004 through 2007 UW-Superior’s in-conference record was a paltry 4 & 92.
The Yellowjackets are improved offensively and on the mound this year.
T.J. Wink is unbeaten on the mound at 6-0, with a 2.82 ERA which is ranked second in the conference. Brett Olson leads UW-S with a .426 batting average.
While the Warhawks are looking to wrap up the WIAC Regular Season Title this weekend, Superior is battling for the third and final berth in next week’s WIAC Postseason Tournament.
Mostly cloudy skies with a temperature in the mid-50s and very windy for today’s game less than a mile from Lake Superior.
At this point I’m not sure how much I’ll be able to blog during today’s doubleheader.
At the least I’ll be giving you every three inning updates with a full game story following each game.
