@MelCarmichael4 @BigSouthSports @JoeyHammond1 Can’t disagree with you on the offense not showing up. We definitely got the worst of the continuous changes though

[Mr. High Point @MrHighPoint78]

Absolutely disgusted with the lack of awareness (inclement weather) and mismanagement by the @BigSouthSports with the conference baseball tournament. Complete amateur hour out of the tournament directors & leadership. Extremely gutted for our young men and @JoeyHammond1

[Mr. High Point @MrHighPoint78]

@JMULiker @MelCarmichael4 @BigSouthSports @JoeyHammond1 That’s part of the pitchers’ job description right Richie?

[Mr. High Point @MrHighPoint78]

@BigSouthSports do you take into account the hard work and grind that these young men go through and put into the season? Our boys EARNED the 1 seed just to get jerked around by your mismanagement. If we do not get an at large bid a large part of it is on your leadership

[Mr. High Point @MrHighPoint78]

@HPUHoopsFan Absolutely horrible. Conference needs new leadership/tournament directors. They should look into hiring someone from Cooperstown Dream Park to run the baseball tournament

[HPU Hoops Fan @HPUHoopsFan]

So to recap the Big South tournament for High Point:

1) The Big South Started a whole tournament in an area that was forecasted for heavy rain all week/weekend with seemingly no back up plan, even though areas just a an hour or two away had better forecasts and numerous conference tournaments in the surrounding area were able to complete their tournaments on schedule.

2) Made the 1 seed start a game against the 4 seed on Thursday when the forecast was obvious it would not be finished. A couple innings into the game called delay, had them sit around getting prepared to play and then canceled the game prioritizing the 2/3 game later that night which was completed on schedule.

3) Made the 1 seed come back and burn a second day of starting pitching just to win one game while the winner of the 2/3 game sat at home with an extra day rest.

4) Then made the 1 seed turn around the next day and pack everything up and drive an hour to play the 2 seed who had a whole extra day’s rest and didn’t have to play each of the previous two days.

5) Then after losing that game made the 1 seed immediately turn around and play their fourth game in 72 hours against a rested team in a game that started after 10pm.

Listen it’s not sour grapes for losing. Baseball is baseball, anything can happen in a game or tournament but this was an absolute master class in mismanagement by the Big South.

Lets hope we did enough this season to get an at large birth.

@MelCarmichael4 50/50 chance you see Brachbill out there again. I could easily see HCJH giving Charleston Southern a different look and running Brachbill back out there tomorrow if we win. Our bats are going to have to lead us today

[Mr. High Point @MrHighPoint78]

@BigSouthSports @HPUBaseball @SeojunOh0829 @HighPointSports No doubt the right winner!!
