I believe they let them use the old bats the last couple of seasons (55 and 62 or so HRs in the derby those years) and doubled those totals this year with the lower seamed balls.

Even though they were using old bats, the significant increase last night using the lower seamed balls is promising for 2015 and beyond.

BBCOR is like swinging a solidified turd compared to the old BESR bats. Hopefully the NCAA will do things other than the ball. The differences in the ball will help, but ultimately these bats still won't hit homeruns, there just might be more runs.
