Due to both weather and travel issues, the home series against Ohio University has been cancelled.
Instead, Western Carolina will now open its 2014 season with a three-game series in Starkville, Miss., against the nationally-ranked Mississippi State Bulldogs.
The season opener is now scheduled for a 7:30 pm ET / 6:30 pm CT first pitch on Friday, followed by a 5:00 pm ET / 4:00 pm start on Saturday. The series with the Bulldogs will wrap-up on Sunday at 2:30 pm ET / 1:30 pm CT.
The Bulldogs are ranked inside the top 10 in each of the four major preseason college baseball polls. Mississippi State was ranked second in the Collegiate Baseball poll, fourth in both the USA Today Coaches' and NCBWA Polls, and eighth in the preseason Baseball America poll.
