I just checked how Nick Mitchell is doing, he's the best position player on Indiana. Having another crazy season. I loved watching him play .

Two wins today, and I believe both were shutouts.

We really need to grab at least one game from Little Rock to keep conference tournament hopes alive. They're the top team in the conference at the moment.

It really feels like we need a season win this next series. SEMO is 2nd in the conference so not sure we're gonna find it.

Necks get the opener against SEMO. Kratz got some petty good giddy up on his heater to close it out.
