This weekend the Rice club baseball team swept a double-header with Division I rival Lone Star Kingwood, winning 11-9 and 13-4. Chris Walker dominated in his first pitching appearance this spring. The Owls also welcomed back Satoshi Mizutani and Eric Manpearl, who each had hits in the series. Highlight at the plat was a HR by Brandon Davies in his only atbat of the weekend, and first plate appearance in nearly a year.
This past week Owls were featured in a story in the Rice Thresher, which you can find here.
The Owls were also discussed on the 2/11/2011 edition of Suite 301, the CollClub Sports webcast, here. Watch the full thing or turn to minute 29 to hear the District VII preview. The hosts on the show predict Rice to win District VII and come to the World Series for a second year in a row. Conference play will be tough again in 2011, as Montgomery has shown signs of improvement, San Antonio College showed something in picking up a win over UT and Corps of Cadets will be dangerous again.
