Highlighted team names are links to team profiles and highlighted scores are links to boxscores. A note about the boxscores: whenever I make it to the Disch, I keep score and post my own detailed account of the game that same evening if possible. If I can't make it to the game, I post whatever I can find in the UT or Austin paper within a day or two. If you ever want more info about a specific game or how a particular player did, feel free to drop me a line and I'll do my best to fill you in.

Central I Regional Tournament info (8K GIF chart):
I'm still working on posting the boxes for the regional games. I
guess I'll quit trying to guess when I'll have them all up. I've
been too busy with other things to finish. In the meantime, I did
write up a summary of the tourney which you are more than welcome
to read. And...wow! What an end to the CWS. I couldn't believe
it. That's exactly the sort of thing that makes baseball so fun.
