A couple of brief notes...

The tournament this upcoming weekend with the largest number of "top-shelf" teams appears to be the Louisville Slugger Desert Classic at UNLV. Several teams ranked highly in the pre-season will be appearing, including: Tennesssee, UCLA, Northwestern, Cal, and Oregon St. UCLA may still be reeling from its stunning 13-1 shellacking by New Mexico last weekend.
