Truly a San Diego Team


The No. 4 team in the nation?
Who's doing the voting, cataracts patients?
Wilting under the heat of increased expectations, the University of San Diego baseball team went winless in its own regional, losing Saturday's NCAA elimination game to Minnesota 6-5 in 10 innings.
Are we surprised?
Yeah, about as surprised as we are when the words "Lindsay Lohan" and "DUI" appear in the same headline.
Everything we said after Friday's embarrassing Torero loss to Fresno State goes double after this one.
San Diego teams are simply incapable of handling the pressure of increased expectations. We don't need to remind you of how last season's 14-2 Chargers did in the playoffs, do we? And we don't need to remind of you how badly the Padres stunk it up in the postseason the past two seasons, do we?
But look on the bright side, Toreros, at least you had a better season than the Aztecs.
