Dirtbags win Big West, to host NCAA regional - Sports

Dirtbags win Big West, to host NCAA regional - Sports

Here is a regional with the usual suspects. All of them are teams that the Dirtbags faced this season. The rubber match with Fresneck, followed by a chance at redemption against either the Toreros OR Golden Bears.

Find out if our guys can get it done this weekend!

Vive La P-Grad! Mabuhay Ang Pilipinas!

Students participate in special grad ceremonies - News

I took part in the Pilipino Graduation ceremony (a.k.a. P-Grad) and I have to say that it met my expectations. It is always good to take part in something lik this when it is available because not only do you get to say a speech, but you also see that beyond the hard-working cold-looing student focused on acing his or her exams...there is a person who wants to be the best heor she can be. Not only for his/her parents or friends, or community, but for his or herself. It's more candid, too.

I didn't shed a tear, but I was excited to finally say that "We did it!" Another chance to be the best beckons, another fight begins. Congratulations everyone, as always.

Dirtbags crowned 2008 Big West champs - Sports

I told the boys, "Hey, it's your choice: Either you come out ready to play, or you come out ready to pack your suitcases." Thankfully, the boys chose the former of the two choices. I was a bit surprised that we came out for an ambush, but this is a credit to Vance Worley and the crew for playing the best game of the season...and it ain't over yet!

They say you have to save the best for last. Let's see if it holds true this weekend at the Blair Field Regional.
