This second Monday could be called “Moving Day” in the CTC. It is a day with only a few games, but one-third of them championship games, so there are usually big variations in the point totals, offering real opportunities for moving in the standings. Teddy made the most of this opportunity by winning the day and moving from also-ran to real contender overnight. Teddy’s 145 points gained him 8 spots in the overall standings, and he now sits in 6th place, fewer than 100 points behind the leader. Gross (up 5 spots to 4th) and Primm (up 4 spots to 8th) also gained a lot of ground on this day. Bry jumped 3 spots to 3rd place and right in the mix. Doogan and J also gained 3 spots in the standings, getting them a little closer to contention – 14th and 16th, respectively. Alexi puts in another solid performance with 98 points. His incredible consistency keeps him atop the overall leaderboard (actually extending his lead now to 14.5), despite not winning any individual days thus far.
As for those for struggled on Moving Day, Waters struck out, going 0-for-12 on the day and registering a goose egg. Mac also got hit really hard today (looks like he picked a bad day to stop popping PKs), scoring just 16 points and falling from 2nd place and half-point out to 5th place and over 80 points out. Rikey and Scoot lost the most places on the leaderboard, as they each dropped 4 spots to 9th and 12th, respectively. Stri, RSmith, and RDoc all fell 3 spots in the overall standings.

I peaked in the Atlantic Sun – always a week too soon. Lehigh will deliver me the Patriot League title, and then I will quickly slide into oblivion, surrounded by empty beer cans, watching Kansas play Loyola-MD on TruTv. which when you say it out loud, sounds pretty good.
