SMU Baseball v. A&M Commerce this weekend!!

It's been a long time! I'm just getting back into the swing of things now that I'm home from Memphis and spring break.

The baseball team got rained out of its first tournament at Tech last weekend, so we've moved that tournament to the end of our schedule, April 28-29th.

This weekend will be our first NCBA tournament...meaning it's official! We'll play at A&M Commerce, about an hour from SMU, this Saturday and Sunday. We play two, 7-inning games starting at noon Saturday, and one, 9-inning game starting at 1 p.m. Sunday.

A fanbase is forming on campus, and we should have a decent number of students coming to support us this weekend!

Our jerseys came in the mail last week, and we had a great practice down in Arlington this past weekend. I'm excited to see how we play in real game situations against some really good competition...the team chemistry is really strong and it's exciting to watch the guys hit the field together!

It's been frustrating, as always, struggling to find playing fields week to week, but we're doing our best. Inaugural seasons are always tough in the way of funding and facilities, but we're making it all work...and we have been receiving some alumni and Student Senate support recently, which has been a great relief!

I'll keep you posted on our official results and schedules over the next few weeks.

Hope all is well and you have a great week!! I'd love any comments about SMU, baseball, PR, or anything else on your minds!

Thanks for reading...
