    loud statement

    Dangerous team - usually strong pitching though Cy didn't have much control tonight - and the offense capable of exploding at any time.

    Personally I don't see this win as a 'statement game'. At least for me, I already knew that Rowan was tough tough tough. It's all about pitching, & nobody has a more loaded staff. Offense & defense are solid, but pitching is what separates Rowan. All other Area III teams are competing for 2nd.

    I agree Rowan will be tough to beat in a playoff series because they can trot a different college-caliber starting pitcher out there about 5 nights in a row. Stanly and Lexington are still capable, but both teams have lost players that would've helped greatly. Still with those 3, won't be no surprises with me.

    statement?

    Good point and agree especially on the pitching but think it was statement in sense showed Rowan could come back with backs against wall - against a good team that had beaten them earlier this year - ditto for Dupre in relief coming into that situation, giving up bomb, and then working out of inning and shutting them down rest of way.

    Legionfan, in that context Rowan made a loud statement. I guess I was originally trying to say that Lexington fans already had huge admiration for Rowan's 07 cog in their ongoing Legion machine. Even when Lex won, we considered that game to be more about us winning than Rowan losing. It's always a happy day when you beat RC. That is respect.

    @UK7Dook3 - wow that is respect - you got good team up there too - this does look like one of the better rowan teams in recent years - although note rowan historically would have been even stronger w/ some of the catawba players (conflict w/ coach gantt also coaching catawba).
