HAYS, Kan. - Due to this weekend's weather forecast, the 26th-ranked Fort Hays State baseball team has announced a change to its non-conference schedule against Colorado-Colorado Springs.
Originally scheduled for a doubleheader on Saturday and one game on Sunday, the Tigers and Mountain Lions will now only play two games on Sunday beginning at noon at Larks Park.
A week after going 1-2 on the road against third-ranked Central Missouri, the Tigers head into the weekend ranked 26th in the latest ABCA Coaches Poll, 22nd in the most recent NCBWA National Poll and 25th in the updated D2Baseball Poll.
Fort Hays State improved to 22-8 overall and 17-4 in MIAA play with a thrilling 4-1 win over Washburn on Tuesday (April 1), while the Mountain Lions head to Hays with an overall record of 18-13 and a mark of 8-8 in RMAC contests.
This will be the first-ever meeting between Fort Hays State and UCCS in baseball. Former RMAC rivals in other sports, the Mountain Lions did not add baseball as an intercollegiate sport until 2017.
