Cats & Eagles play one more time

Two victims of upsets Wednesday morning, will meet in Charleston on Thursday's first elimination game of the day in the Southern Conference Baseball Tournament.  Two of the SoCon's best overall teams will meet, and one will go home after playing only two games in the tournament.  It's a variation of the old one-and-done, but here, it's "2 and done".

Fourth seed Georgia Southern was defeated by Appalachian State in the first game of the day Wednesday morning in extra innings, losing by a final score of 3-2. In the second game of the day, number one seed Western Carolina faced number 8 seed Furman, and promptly lost to the Paladins in what is the major upset of the tournament.

The Eagles come to the game at 34-21, while the Cats are 37-17 on the season. The Cats and Eagles played three. one run games in early May, with Georgia Southern taking two of the three.

It would seem that fate has the Cats playing back to back the only two teams that won weekend series over Western Carolina.
