Welcome to Episode 115 of The Podcast About Division III Baseball. It's our second Mid-Atlantic preview pod, as we dig into the teams in Region 4. In order:

• CUNYAC (at 2:00)
  • This isn't a relevant conference as long as they don't have an AQ but they are still playing baseball and that's cool
• MAC Freedom (at 5:35)
  • Arcadia had one of the more surprising dominant seasons in recent D-III history and look poised to be a regional contender once again
  • Misericordia finally got knocked off their MACF throne but look ready to re-claim it
  • Stevens might be able to ride their always-excellent pitching staff back to the postseason but have a lot of offense to replace
• NJAC (at 18:00)
  • William Paterson finally won the NJAC with one of the nation's best offenses despite extremely poor run prevention; they should be tremendously entertaining again in 2023
  • Rowan is as solid as it gets but may need to rely on some transfers on the mound to stay at the top of this loaded conference
  • Montclair State can bang with the best of 'em but will need some pitching depth to step up to make noise in a regional
  • Kean had a down year but still boasts some of the best pitching in a suddenly offense-friendly conference
  • TCNJ leads the rest of the pack of several teams that could reasonably make noise in this annual gauntlet
• UEC (at 43:30)
  • Penn State-Harrisburg has a loaded lineup coming back but a ridiculous amount of innings to replace that could make a title defense challenging
  • Salute to Ryan McCarty but it's somewhat unclear what to expect from Abington moving forward
• UAA (at 53:55)
  • NYU continues to baffle us but we can usually expect them to be solid even if the SOS is blah

We conclude (at 57:10) with our player and pitcher of the year picks, and our teams to beat. Then we say goodbye.
