Using the even-year hex, the Colonels regained the title from Jacksonville State University. Since the league had started in 1972, Nicholls won the championship that year and in 1974, while losing the crown to Jacksonville Gamecocks in 1973 and 1975. Good pitching by Eric Champagne and Mike Moity in the first game, and Jeff Fay in the second, gave the Big Red Machine 2-1 and 1-O wins over the Alabama school in the GSC playoffs. Fay had a no-hitter going in the second game until Randy Putnam singled with one out in the seventh inning. l-le then retired the next batter on a pop-up fly and catcher Mike Mulligan threw Putnam out at second as he tried to steal the base. In the rain-delayed first game, second baseman Tim Trapped off the base, Rusty Rebowe tags Art Lock- ridge after faking a throw to first base. The play was revenge for Rebowe, himself lured off third by Jack- sonville earlier. .,.......t , Q qv ' ., ' , iff, 'SKA' ...WVU , HHN' if . ' , -44 N. ...,..1 PM . 'lk h fir?
