    LINE DRIVES THE NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 46, No. 1, Jan. 31, 2007) Membership: Play ball! It’s hard to believe that we have not yet reached February, but the first reports of college baseball scores has come through on my computer. It was with great pleasure and interest that I read the first recap – defending national champion Oregon State picking up where it left off in Omaha last year – and prepared for what we all hope will be an exciting 2007 season. While the winter has been pretty mild in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast – the Georgetown baseball team was actually able to practice outdoors because temperatures were in the 60s at one point – the latter part of January has brought some cold weather, but not enough to dampen the spirits of those of us who love college baseball. Here at Georgetown, former Cincinnati Reds catcher and Hall of Famer Johnny Bench will be the guest at our annual “First Pitch” Dinner and the team hits the field for the first time on February 13 against George Washington. This year will be the last of the “early” starts for college baseball as the NCAA has mandated a final weekend in February (depending on the calendar) or first weekend in March opening for all divisions with a maximum of 56 regular- season dates beginning in 2008. Many of you have seen our membership forms come through e-mail and thanks for reminding the beat writers, columnists and electronic media covering your teams to send in membership dues checks to our Associate Executive Director, Russell Anderson.
