Georgia Tech Baseball: 2019 Atlanta Challenge Preview

Opening Weekend on the Flats has finally arrived! Get yourself ready for this weekend’s slate of games with a three-pack of previews for Tech’s opponents: Illinois-Chicago, Richmond, and WVU.

UIC

The Flames (seemingly the second time that Chicago has named a sports team after a natural disaster) finished 2018 with a strong 30-18 record and runners up in the Horizon League tournament, but missed out on a second consecutive NCAA Regional appearance with a RPI ranking in the 200s. As Ethan mentioned earlier this month, Tech faced UIC early last March, with the Flames avoiding the sweep with a 12-5 win in the finale.
