IT JUST WASN'T MEANT TO BE

What else can you say about Virginia's 3-2 loss to South Carolina in 13 innings last night bit it just wasn't meant to be for the Cavaliers.  The Cavs had numerous opportunities to win last nights game but just couldn't get the big hit when they needed it.  The Cavs pitchers did there job very well striking out 18 South Carolina batters but the Gamecocks pitchers pitched just as well getting several of the pitchers best friends the double play at key times shutting down Virginia rally's.  The Gamecocks will join Florida in a all SEC College World Series Final next week in Omaha, Florida eliminated Vandy yesterday with a 6-4 win.  Joey Logano captured the pole for tomorrows race at Sonoma edging Jamie McMurray for the top spot.  I did go over to Dunkin Donuts in Hopewell again this morning and I have to say the donuts this morning were the best they have been all year over there, they were just right.  MICKEY
