Baseball: Hofstra visits Hennon Stadium

The Catamounts open a three-game nonconference set with Hofstra on Saturday and Sunday at Childress Field / Hennon Stadium.  This will be the first meeting between these two teams on the baseball field.

The three-game series opens with a doubleheader on Saturday, March 2, and is scheduled for a Noon start, Sunday's single game is scheduled for Noon as well.

Hofstra, a member of the Colonial Athletic Association was picked to finish second in the league, just behind UNCW.  However, coming into this weekend series in Cullowhee, Hofstra currently ranks in the bottom of the CAA in batting, hitting just .210 as a team, and has a team ERA of 4.61 through 68.1 innings.

Hofstra is 2-6 on the season, dropping four-straight at 14th-ranked Oklahoma in Norman, and splitting a four-game series at Cal State - Bakersfield last weekend.

Once again, there is opportunity here for the Catamounts.
