THE IUP Football Thread

I couldn’t give you a number but it was the biggest crowd I ever saw there. Yesterday was big too, similar to today. The entire hillside on the third base line was full. They were several rows deep near both dugouts and bleachers on both sides were full.

Outstanding!

How big of a crowd?

It was fantastic. The Top of the 9th felt like a football game (not one here, mind you, but one at a place that actually cheers).

Great way to spend the afternoon. The atmosphere was electric, especially when IUP grabbed the lead late and the closer looked dominant. Today was the biggest day in IUP Baseball history, but there’s a little more work to do.

As for the bunting, these teams almost never bunt during the regular season and it comes back to bite them in these types of game where they play a little more small ball. You might think bunting is easy but it’s certainly not, especially if you’re not dedicating reps to it like you to regular batting practice. They got 2-4 down today, which in the grand scheme of things isn’t bad.

After 5 full, SHU and IUP are tied at 4-4. I would say IUP needs to work on their bunting.

Did you get any? Looks like a big line is crossing Central Pennsylvania now…

It was a nice pool day here.

Yes, got absolutely hammered. It didn’t hit until about 4:00 so they could have gotten it in, but if it went extra innings there could have been problems so probably the right call to move it to today.
