HOUSTON, Texas – Leading by a run, WKU (18-15, 6-7 C-USA) feel victim to a big fifth inning by No. 21 Rice (22-11, 10-3 C-USA) to drop game one of the series 9-3 at Reckling Park in downtown Houston on Friday night.

Potential inclement weather caused the two teams to move Sunday’s game to a Saturday doubleheader, with first pitch slated for noon CT. Both contests will be streamed live on the Conference USA Digital Network, while fans can also listen to every game this season locally in Bowling Green on 1450 AM or 102.7 FM and online at WKUSports.
