JMU Baseball Prepares for Post Season Play in Final Stretch – Bubble Watch on JMU Sports News

Reading Time: < 1 minute

The James Madison University baseball team, also known as the Diamond Dukes, is on the cusp of making their first NCAA regional appearance in 13 years. With a strong offense led by junior catcher Jason Schiavone and junior center fielder Fenwick Trimble, the Dukes have been a force to be reckoned with this season.

Trimble, who boasts an impressive .365 batting average and 13 home runs, has been a key player for the team. Schiavone, with 15 home runs and stellar defense behind the plate, has also been instrumental in the Dukes’ success. The team’s overall batting average of .300 and prowess on the base paths have made them one of the best offenses in the conference.

However, the pitching staff has been a bit more inconsistent, with starters Donovan Burke and Max Kuhl posting ERAs of 3.88 and 4.58 respectively. The bullpen, led by Hunter Entsminger and closer Joe Vogotsky, has had its ups and downs throughout the season.

With a challenging schedule and a solid RPI, the Dukes are in a good position to secure a spot in the NCAA tournament. However, they will need to finish strong in their remaining games, including a series sweep over Marshall and key matchups against Virginia Tech and Troy.

Head coach Marlin Ikenberry has emphasized a day-by-day approach for the team, and their resilience and determination will be put to the test in the coming weeks. The Diamond Dukes are on the bubble of making history, and their performance in the final stretch of the season will determine their fate.
