JONESBORO, Ark. (4/28/16) – This weekend's Arkansas State baseball series at Appalachian State, originally scheduled for April 29-May 1, will now feature a Friday doubleheader and a Saturday contest to wrap up the series in an attempt to avoid inclement weather that is expected to move into the Boone, N.C., area.

Friday's doubleheader will begin at 2 p.m. (CT) with the second contest to follow approximately 30 minutes after the conclusion of the game one. Saturday's game time is still to be announced, but will begin as late as possible in the day and still early enough that the teams will be able to avoid the forecasted rain later in the day.

The series will now be a two-day series April 29-30, instead of the originally planned Friday, April 29-Sunday, May 1.

Arkansas State enters the weekend with a record of 19-21 and 8-13 in league play. The Red Wolves are coming off an 8-3 win against in-state opponent Arkansas-Pine Bluff Tuesday night. The Mountaineers are 11-30 on the year with a 6-15 mark in SBC play. Appalachian State dropped its lone midweek contest to Wake Forest Tuesday night by a score of 10-7.
