Re: Tourney

Congrats baseball team!

I was biting my fingernails all day, unsure of game results.

Re: Tourney

Wow. Great pitching and defense today. 2-0 and 1-0 victories against the Bison. Way to go, Jacks!

They had me worried for awhile. Our inabiliy to bunt in clear sacrifice situations concerns me. Pitching and defense really did shine today. This team overcame a ton of obstacles this year......poor field condiions, home games in Omaha, Sioux City etc. My hat is off to this team and it will be interesting just where we go. We have a couple of starting pitchers that could cause some teams some trouble. Clearly need to find some offense. Congrats boys.

Re: Tourney

The Jacks advance to the national tournament in baseball, joining similar accomplishments by the football, women's basketball and men's basketball teams (I'm probably missing something.) What a great year for SDSU.

I know the Jacks had one wrestler qualify for the NCAA's. Plus, correct me if I am wrong but I beleive the equestrian team qualified?

Re: Tourney

Turbak's family roots are in Kranzburg, the little town about nine miles east of Watertown. The common family name in Kranzburg is, as one would expect, Kranz but the Turbak group has to be second...good people. Blake Turbak has been a good ballplayer for the Bison. Blake and SDSU's Eric Danforth overlapped in playing days at Watertown. And, both would have competed against Lane Somsen from his Yankton days.

Kranzburg had a high school when? It's been a long time since those doors closed that is if they were ever open, but seems like there have been a bunch of athletes named Turbak have been Watertown Arrows. Once an Arrow always an Arrow.... I am sure they are great people, and I wish Blake had chosen to be a Jack.

Yes they did play a year together on legion not sure on high school ball though. The Kranz and Turbaks pretty much run Kranzburg. Grew up next to Blake through my childhood days. Yes, they are good people

Re: Tourney

Somehow, not hard to feel THAT sorry for them. Best team took two today. Big, Big Deal for Jacks!

You're right. My sympathy passed after about two seconds.

Listened to a lot of SDSU baseball today! Another great day to be a Jackrabbit!

Re: Tourney

Seems like Turbak is a familiar Watertown name and sure enough, I checked the NDSU roster and Turbak is a Watertown guy, who can get some clutch hits. I wonder how he got away. It must be the glitzey lights of Fargo.

Re: Tourney

Gotta feel a little (but not much) for the NDSU guys. Two years in a row they go to the league championships and have to lose two to miss going to the NCAA tourney. Last year, it was ORU. This year, SDSU. I think we find out Monday where the Jacks play next.

SDSU 1, NDSU 0 Very exciting baseball game!

Re: Tourney

Congratulations Jacks. Two big wins today over the Bison. Coach Schrage is on his way to building a bigger and better program at SDSU. I was worried about, DARE I SAY, Choke job.

Re: Tourney
