Back to the diamond

Both the softball and baseball teams will kick off of their season on Saturday.

The softball team will be in Aiken, S.C. to take part in the South Carolina-Aiken Tournament, while the baseball team will hit the road to take on Barton College in doubleheader action on both Saturday and Sunday.

When possible, I'll do analysis on the teams, but due to time constraints, I will not be doing recaps of each game at this point in the season. For all scores and recaps visit www.kubears.com.
