I'm really disappointed in this.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Coach Stan Hyman was chosen as Coach of the Year by the Mid Con. SUPER! He deserves it.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Travis Check was selected as CO PLAYER OF THE YEAR with a pitcher from ORU.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Now, watch this breakdown..&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;First team all conference&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;#1 team in the conference - ORU gets league leading 8 players&lt;br&gt;#5 team in the conference - Southern Utah gets 6&lt;br&gt;#3 team in the conference - Valpo gets 4&lt;br&gt;#4 team in the conference - Centenary gets 3&lt;br&gt;BOTTOM DWELLER Oakland - gets 3&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;#2 TEAM...WITH COACH OF THE YEAR AND CO PLAYER OF THE YEAR ...gets T W O ! TWO...2! (One of those was Mark DiBernado for 2nd TEAM!) &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Get real. We have players batting in the .300's and obp in the .300 and .400 range; some players with great stats who are not even recognized. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I could understand this if we were the #4 team or the #5 team, but when you're the #2 team - preseason #1 pick...well above .500 this is a travesty!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I hope the NECKS come out and kick it today and tomorrow and just win the darn conference bid to the NCAA tourney. That would teach them!&lt;br&gt;</description><pubDate>Thu, 24 May 2007 15:57:09 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>sportsnut</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
