GREENSBORO, N.C. – Due to excessive game lengths of the three preceding Friday contests, the fifth-ranked Salisbury University baseball team's schedule at the D3 Showcase has been adjusted.
The Sea Gulls will now play twice on Saturday, facing No. 3 Denison at 10 a.m. and No. 6 Lynchburg at 4:45 p.m. A contest between Christopher Newport and Cortland will be played between the two SU games at 1:15 p.m.
Salisbury was originally scheduled to play Lynchburg in the fourth and final Friday game of the D3 Showcase at First National Bank Field. However, the day's first game at 10 a.m. was delayed by close to an hour due to rain, and the second and third games each exceeded well over three-and-a-half hours in length. Had the Sea Gulls and Hornets played on Friday, the game would have started close to midnight.
Salisbury University is a proud member of NCAA Division III with primary membership in the Coast-to-Coast Athletic Conference, along with affiliate membership in the New Jersey Athletic Conference (football, men's & women's swimming), Coastal Lacrosse Conference (men's lacrosse), State University of New York Athletic Conference (field hockey), and Colonial Women's Golf Conference (women's golf). With over 500 student-athletes in 23 varsity sports, SU is recognized as one of the nation's most competitive intercollegiate athletics programs regardless of division, featuring dedicated coaches and staff that foster excellence on and off the field. The Sea Gulls have won a combined 23 team national championships, 24 individual national championships, and 207 conference championships, and have produced 54 Academic All-Americans.
