BB G1: Louisiana vs Houston

[RaginScotsman]

Did travel plans impact the start time? Just wondering why both baseball and softball were not started a couple hours earlier.

Suspended. Starting at 2 tomorrow

And it’s going to clear up tonight. Why not just delay.

I believe it was also a class time issue.

I think it may have been an umpire issue as well. You may note we have no "local"umpires for this series. All four are from east of the Mississippi River.

Moving a game into traditional office hour times is not easy. Almost all people involved in working the events have other jobs or are in school. Moving from 6 to 3 was a small hill to climb. Any earlier probably more of a mountain.

….Jay if I remember correctly, ..that for the shot put the optimum angle was like 45 degrees …..maybe VoB can help on Javelin , discuss, jumps…..straight on kicking the wind was either really good or bad because of my elevation……for whatever, the hits taken away by the outfielders (UL & OPPONENTS) has been incredible….wind has to factor in holding the ball up!

Broussard behind the plate today at Tulane and the Tulane hitters aren't pleased with him.
