MONTGOMERY, Ala. – Following a late-game rally to defeat seventh-seeded James Madison on Thursday, the Mountaineers set their sights on a rematch with the Troy Trojans, who the Mountaineers came within an out of beating just two days ago before Troy was able to pull off an extra-inning win. First pitch on Friday is set for 4 p.m. ET and the game will be broadcast on ESPN+.
