Message: [QUOTE="longtimefan, post: 2625245, member: 212"] Actually, the reason is the weather and the changed academic calendar. When SU's graduation changed from June to May, the in-session window for a baseball season became very small. Teams in the South and West play in March and even February. That's a tremendous disadvantage for Northeastern schools (BC went 0 for the ACC a couple of seasons ago). You can ship your team south for the bulk of the early season games, but the added travel expense and missed class time then become major problems. [/QUOTE]
