Florida Atlantic baseball defeated Rice University twice in its three game series this weekend.

With the team’s second victory, head baseball coach John McCormack picked up his 300th win with FAU baseball. He now ranks second all-time in program history to Kevin Cooney, who earned 748 wins in 21 seasons with the team.
