ABOUT THE MARAUDERS
• With eight games remaining on the PSAC East schedule, Millersville holds a three-game lead in the division standings over two teams--one of which is East Stroudsburg. The Warriors and Marauders start a four-game series on Saturday at East Stroudsburg and close it with a doubleheader Sunday at Cooper Park. The Marauders' magic number to win the division is six, so three wins over East Stroudsburg and three losses by Bloomsburg against Lock Haven this weekend would clinch the PSAC East for the Marauders. Not only are both teams fighting for the PSAC East crown, there are plenty of NCAA Tournament implications as well. Millersville was recently pegged No. 2 in the official NCAA Division II Atlantic Region rankings. East Stroudsburg was ranked sixth, right on the cut line. Only the PSAC and Mountain East tournament winners and top four at-large teams in the final regional rankings (released after the conference tournaments) make the six-team regional field. 
• Millersville moved up to No. 9 in the latest NCBWA Division II poll but dropped to No. 18 in the coaches' Collegiate Baseball poll. East Stroudsburg received votes in the Collegiate Baseball poll. 
• Millersville and East Stroudsburg is a match-up of the top two run-scoring offenses in the PSAC.

SCOUTING EAST STROUDSBURG

ESU won three of four from West Chester but dropped three of four from Bloomsburg before sweeping all four games from Kutztown last weekend.
