Baseball: Friday's opener postponed until Saturday

Friday's opener with the Ohio Bobcats has been postponed and moved into a planned Saturday double-header, with the first pitch of the year set for noon (weather permitting) at Childress Field / Hennon Stadium.

The series is scheduled to wrap-up on Sunday afternoon with game three slated for 1:00 pm.

Fans can follow all three games of the season-opening season with live GameTracker available online through CatamountSports.com.

The decision to move Friday's game came based upon field playing conditions, as well as Ohio's travel safety. The postponement of Friday's game also cancels the originally scheduled Catamount Sports Network broadcast of the season-opener.

The first baseball radio broadcast is now scheduled for Tuesday's home date against Winthrop with a 3:45 pm air time ahead of the 4:00 pm first pitch.

Projected Starting Pitcher Matchups:
Saturday (Gm 1): WCU - Jeremy Null, RHP vs. OU - Jake Roehn, RHP
Saturday (Gm 2): WCU - Jordan Smith, RHP vs. OU - Jake Miller, RHP
Sunday (Gm 3): WCU - T.J. Fussell, RHP vs. OU - TBA
