Okay, let me tell you about the absolute mess I had this morning trying to figure out which Tusculum baseball games I could actually catch in person this year. Seriously, it turned into a way bigger ordeal than it needed to be.
The Frustrating Search Begins
Started simple, right? I’m trying to plan my spring weekends. Tusculum baseball fan, wanna be there cheering them on at Pioneer Park. So, I grab my coffee, plop down at the desk, and fire up the ol’ computer. Head straight to what should be the source – the official Tusculum Athletics website. Seemed like the logical first step.
Found the baseball section easy enough, saw mention of a schedule. But then… bam. They only had this useless PDF schedule download thing. Clicked it, downloaded it… opened it up. It was just a static grid, impossible to read on my phone later, and honestly, kinda ugly. How am I supposed to quickly see what’s a home game just glancing at this? Total pain.
Felt annoyed. Shouldn’t be this hard, you know? Decided to widen the net.
Scrolling Through Confusing Lists
Next stop: popular college sports sites. You know the big ones everyone uses for stats and scores. Hopped over to one. Yeah, they had the full Tusculum 2025 schedule listed. That was good.
- Started scrolling down the list, game by game.
- Saw opponent names, dates… but the location was just listed as “vs” or “at”.
- “Vs” probably means home? Maybe? But I needed to be sure. Couldn’t trust it completely.
- Plus, scrolling through 50+ games? Ain’t nobody got time for that!
Even those sites didn’t have a simple filter saying “Show Only Home Games”. Felt like banging my head on the keyboard. Why isn’t this basic info just… upfront?
The Manual List & Calendar Save
Fine. I had to do it the hard way. Went back to that big schedule list. Grabbed my notepad app. Opened a new note, slapped on the title: Tusculum Baseball 2025 – HOME GAMES.
Started meticulously going down the list:
- See a game marked “vs”? Checked the date against that ugly PDF schedule I downloaded earlier just to double-confirm the location (because trust issues at this point, absolutely).
- If confirmed home? Wrote that date and opponent down in my note. Clickety-click.
- Encountered an “at”? Just skipped right on by.
Took way longer than I wanted. But finally, had my complete list of home games for the whole dang year sitting in my note.
Then, smart move: Opened my personal Google Calendar. Started plugging in each home game date, using the opponent name as the event title. Made the event color bright Tusculum red so it stands out like a sore thumb. Boom. Now they’re in my digital life.
The Final Home Game List (2025)
So, after that whole rigamarole, here’s the official list of Tusculum Baseball games happening right here at Pioneer Park in 2025. Save yourself my frustration:
- February 7-8: vs Limestone (Friday DH)
- February 11: vs King
February 14-15: vs Emory & Henry (Friday DH)
February 21: vs Shorter
February 25: vs Lee
March 1-2: vs Mars Hill (Saturday DH)
March 4: vs Davis & Elkins
March 11: vs Findlay
March 15-16: vs Lincoln Memorial (Saturday DH)
March 22-23: vs Newberry (Saturday DH)
March 29: vs Lenoir-Rhyne
April 5-6: vs Coker (Saturday DH)
April 15: vs Carson-Newman
April 19: vs Catawba
There it is. My practice today was basically becoming a human schedule parser! Seriously hope Tusculum Athletics gets a better schedule viewer online soon. Maybe with a shiny “HOME GAMES ONLY” button? A fella can dream. Anyway, mark those dates, grab your hat, and I’ll see y’all at the ballpark! Good luck finding the away games easily… you’re on your own for that circus.
