The battle for first in the Patriot League Baseball Championship appears in West Point this weekend. Lehigh is coming off a huge 4 game sweep of arch-rival Lafayette last weekend, that included a no-hitter by senior Greg Angelo. Lehigh is now 6-2 in the league and Army is 7-1.

The truth is that both teams suck. The only reason one of them will get into the NCAA tournament is because of the automatic bid awarded to the PL tournament champion. It's quite an injustice that very good teams will not make the NCAA tourney while weak teams from weak conferences will make it in.
