After a 2016 season which saw a conference tournament title and an NCAA Tournament appearance, the UConn baseball team will begin 2017 in Florida.
The Huskies will start with a four-game series in Port St. Lucie, Florida against UMass-Lowell. UConn typically plays the Riverhawks in a midweek matchup and took last year’s game in Lowell by a score of 4-2. Lowell had a record of 20-32 last year, 5-19 in America East play.
UConn will then head to Austin to play against the University of Texas from February 24-26. The Longhorns had an off year last year with a record of 25-32, failing to make the NCAA Tournament for only the fifth time since 1979.
