Mountaineers Ready for Home-Opening Weekend

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – After opening the season with 18 games on the road, the West Virginia University baseball team makes its 2017 Monongalia County Ballpark debut this weekend with a series against Jacksonville.

The home opener is set for Friday, March 24, at 6:30 p.m. ET, while Saturday’s first pitch is at 3 p.m. Sunday’s finale has been moved up to noon, to accommodate a change in Jacksonville’s travel schedule.

The Mountaineers (10-8, 2-1 Big 12 Conference) are coming off a weekend-series win at No. 10 Baylor to open Big 12 play. WVU improved to 4-1 against top-25 teams with 7-1 and 6-5 wins to open the series before BU prevailed in the finale, 5-1.
