The Fighting Illini travel east this weekend to face the Maryland Terrapins in Big Ten play. With freezing rain in the forecast at College Park, Saturday's game was pushed ahead to Friday. The doubleheader will start at 2 p.m. CT, with the weekend series concluding on Sunday afternoon.
Illinois (17-7, 4-2) heads into this series after dropping two of three games to the Iowa Hawkeyes. Right hander Quinn Snarskis looks to rebound after a rough outing last weekend. He surrendered five hits and six runs in just two innings pitched. Andy Weber will sit out of the starting rotation, with Ryan Schmidt starting the back half of today's doubleheader.
