At the end of the recap story on Friday's game...the gocreighton web site had some interesting notes:
NOTES: The Indiana State win was the first opening-game win in a series against Creighton since 2003 ... The Sycamore win snapped a 12-game losing streak in Omaha ... The game at Rosenblatt was the first-ever Creighton home opener in the stadium ... The last time Creighton gave up two triples in a game was against Evansville on April 21, 2006. The last time the Jays allowed three in a game was against Rick Heller's Northern Iowa club on April 20, 2003 and the last time an opponent had two triples in one inning was March 31, 2001 against Illinois State ... Roemmich has now posted two hits in six of his last seven games.
The first item..."The Indiana State win was the first opening-game win in a series against Creighton since 2003 ..." can mean two things. I checked the past records and Creighton has not lost a home-opener for the season since at least 1984. Also, Indiana State has not won the opening game of a series against Creighton since 2003.
