I heard they wear black uniforms.

Last weekend, there were four teams in the regional.

Arizona won by some impressive scores.

15-3 vs Missouri
16-4 vs Louisville (with Mohammed Ali in the stands)
16-3 vs Louisville

The last time Arizona hosted a super regional,
Andy Lopez (current Arizona coach)coached Pepperdine to a victory.

Bear Down, Arizona!

When my children were young, seven or eight, we would go to the Tucson Torros games at
Hi Corbett field. Most nights we would sit with my father, high up, in line with first to second.
One night I tooks my children and pops wasn't there.
We decided to sit in the right field bleachers for a change.
First they like row twenty.
Then they thought row seven would be better.
Arrrrrgh!!!!!
Then row fifteen was where we should be.
ARRRRRRRRRg

Of course, it was time for them to go to the snackbar for some refreshments.

As they were walking up the steps with their sodas and snacks,
a foul ball was hit right to me.
With my son's glove, I caught that foul ball as my children looked on.
True story.

SJU Class of 2002.

Plus one of their stars, Jeremy Baltz, grew up down the road from me. Well, I'm 11 years older than him, but you know what I mean. He got drafted by the Padres yesterday - second round (68th overall).
