I mean no disrepect to baseball programs on other levels, but the first NCAA Division I games of the season are today. I was lucky enough to see 30 or so games (including a few DII games) last season. My work hours have changed, so I don't know what to expect for 2011. Regardless of what the calendar says, it's springtime. Play Ball.

Wofford guide online
Like The Citadel, Wofford is not printing a media guide this year and will make it available online only. I'm all for saving trees, but I don't like this trend. There will be times when a media guide is needed for reference and an internet connection isn't readily available.
Black College podcast started
BlackCollegeBaseball is starting a weekly in-season podcast centering on black college baseball programs. I'm all for anything that expands the interest in baseball, particularly on the college level.
