Millsaps Baseball Set For Weekend Slate of Games

JACKSON, Miss. – This weekend, the Millsaps baseball team is set to host three different opponents on campus at Twenty Field. After last weekend's rain pushed the entire series with Piedmont College to Smith-Wills Stadium, this will be the first time the Majors take the field on campus in 2018.

Last weekend Millsaps was able to even up their record at 2-2 on the season after sweeping both games from Piedmont.

Right-hander Barrett Kaul was named the SAA Pitcher of the Week for his efforts in picking up the win on Sunday night. He went five strong innings on the mound, striking out four and allowing zero runs. That outing dropped his opponents batting average to .083 on the season.

Designated hitter Brennan Ducote continued swinging a hot bat at the plate during the Piedmont series. He now has six hits in eleven at bats for a .545 average on the young season. He also leads the Majors in walks, slugging percentage and RBIs.

LaGrange College, North Park University and Fontbonne Univeristy will all be in Jackson to take on the Majors this weekend.

It all gets underway at 4:00pm Friday evening against LaGrange. The Panthers come into the weekend as the #10 team nationally in the most recent D3baseball.com/NCBWA Top 25 poll. They are 5-3 on the year having lost to Berry 7-1 their last time out.

On Sunday Millsaps will take on both North Park, out of the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (CCIW) and Fontbonne, out of the St. Louis Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SLIAC). First pitch times are set for 10:00am and 1:00pm respectively.

North Park has yet to take the field in 2018. They will play LaGrange and Belhaven on Saturday afternoon in a pair of games at Smith-Wills before taking on the Majors here Sunday morning.

Fontbonne is the same situation. This is their opening weekend of the season. The Griffins play Belhaven and Berry on Saturday before rounding out the weekend against Millsaps at 1:00pm Sunday.
