Greg Schiano throwing out the first pitch tomorrow night at the Yankees-Mets game

"I'm going full wind-up," Schiano told The Post. "Posada better be ready."

Big East Champs!

A laugher became a nail-biter over the last few minutes as the Connecticut Huskies scored five runs in the top of the ninth inning. I felt hopeless and helpless just watching the score from KeySpan Park change on GameTracker.

But all's well that ends well, as some bard once said. The Scarlet Knights of Rutgers now have a Big East Tournament Championship to go along with the season championship they shared with St. Johns. Now it's on to the World Series.
Go Knights!

Rutgers beats Louisville for the second time in one day, and moves on to the Big East tournament final

So, to expand on the last entry, the only thing better than having the Scarlet Knights beat the Louisville Cardinals after a long drought, is to have the Scarlet Knights beat the Louisville Cardinals twice in one day after a long drought.

Not to jinx anything, but are other fans of the Knights starting to get the feeling that something fundamental has changed? Doesn't it seem that the teams are feeding off the recent successes of each other, from the Louisville (football) game and the Texas Bowl to the women's basketball Big East championship and appearance in the NCAA championship game?

Just asking.
And Go Knights!

Rutgers Beats Louisville (again)

No matter the sport, there's still something magical about those words "Rutgers Beats Louisville".


This 12-10 baseball victory just wrapped up a few minutes ago in Coney Island.
Now they will have to play Louisville again at 5 this afternoon (and beat them again) in order to advance to the Big East tournament final against either UConn or USF. The Knights deserve a tournament championship to go along with their regular-season Big East crown.
Go RU!
