Ye olde notebook:
If you’re a major college baseball fan in West Virginia, you might be like me.
A little hazy, that is, on how this NCAA baseball tournament stuff works.
Hey, we deserve a break here. After all, Marshall’s last appearance in the event was 1978 and the program has only been there twice. WVU, on the other hand, has been in the event 11 times, but the last appearance was in 1996. If my math is on point, that’s 20 years ago.
OK, so allow me to tap the brakes here. Unless MU wins its Conference USA baseball tournament this week in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, or WVU wins its Big 12 tournament this week in Oklahoma City, there’s no guarantee either will make the NCAA tourney.
