 OMAHA, Neb. — During the past 22 years, Stony Brook head coach Matt Senk has taken the Seawolves’ baseball program from an afterthought to national contender.

In 1991, SBU was a Division III program that had posted just six winning seasons since 1966. Through the years, the school transitioned to DII, and in 2000 it began competing at the DI level.

Newswise — June 15, 2012 – Toronto, ON -This summer, follow these energy-saving tips and you can cut your energy bill by 20 to 50 per cent.\"\"

Work your thermostat
Electric thermostats can be programmed so that the A/C isn’t on when you don’t need it. Set the thermostat at 28°C (82°F) before you leave for work in the morning and at 25°C (77°F) when you get home.

Live off-peak
In many cities, such as Toronto, electricity usage is calculated on a time-of-use rate. Go online and determine when your off-peak hours are and run your dishwasher, washing machine and dryer at these times. Often, electricity rates are the lowest early in the morning, at night and on the weekends.

OMAHA, Neb. – Trailing 3-1 in the sixth inning, Florida State head coach Mike Martin would’ve signed for an extra innings affair with Arizona in Game 2 of the College World Series.

After all, his Seminoles were 3-0 in extra inning games this season. A spot with a healthy bullpen where he wouldn’t mind being, trying desperately to win the team’s opening game in Omaha for the first time in five tries.

He got his wish thanks to a two-run double by freshman John Holland in that sixth inning to tie the game off Wildcats’ ace Kurt Heyer following a leadoff error by third baseman Seth Mejias-Brean which opened the door.

\”I got down 0-2 and saw his breaking ball, definitely knew what he had and what he was going to try to be throwing,\” Holland said, \”he left the pitch over the plate that I got a barrel on. It was definitely a boost to get that hit and put us right back in the game and it was like the whole dugout was rejuvenated.\”
