After suffering a mid-week loss to Rice University Tuesday night, the baseball team hopes to right the ship as it opens a three-game home series versus the George Washington University Colonials.
The series is scheduled to begin Thursday and will end on Saturday, an format that allows the teams to have Easter Sunday off.
Houston enters the matchup with a 13-7 record and as the 16th ranked team in the nation, according to Baseball America. A series-win will improve the team’s nonconference record, which should bolster its post season resume when May rolls around. The series against the Colonials will also serve as a final tune-up before the Cougars begin conference play.
