The home opener for Denver (2-1) went well. The Pioneers built a 21 point lead and pushed aside a couple late Wyoming runs on the way to a 76-65 victory. I caught the last seven+ minutes of this game on TV late last night and while the Pioneers had too many turnovers while trying to run out the clock, Joe Scott's new team did not look as devoid of talent as I expected them to be. The Associated Press reporter was similarly surprised.

"Was I looking for something else? All I know is that I liked what we were doing there (at Princeton) in terms of the development of our program," Scott said. "At the same point, things had changed there. Does that mean I was looking for something else? I don't know. I just know things were changing there, which, in my opinion, wasn't the best situation or the most advantageous."

C. Young (9-4) - 6.0 IP 3 H 4 ER 5 BB 5 K 2.02 ERA. 105 pitches, 58 strikes.
Chris Young threw six innings of one-run baseball in his return on Thursday evening, but could not retire a batter in the seventh. Young left the game versus St. Louis trailing 2-0 with two men on base. Reliever Doug Brocall would get the first two men he faced out, but pinch hitter Rick Ankiel hit a three run home run to provide the game's final margin.
"A little rusty, but overall not bad," Young said, assessing his outing. "I felt good. I had no problems with my side at all. I came out of hit healthy. That's a big step forward."
Princeton coach Sydney Johnson will throw out the first pitch at Tuesday's Trenton Thunder game.
