Conference USA Baseball Championship Postponed Until Friday
May 22, 2008
NEW ORLEANS, La. - Rain in the New Orleans Area has forced the postponement of the 2008 Entergy Conference USA Baseball Championship as Tulane and UCF will now play on Friday at 9 a.m. at the new Greer Field at Turchin Stadium. The game was originally slated for 12:30 p.m. on Thursday, but heavy rain and lightning forced the game to initially be moved back to 7 p.m. The rains, however, never subsided and the day was called at 8:45 p.m. As a result, the remaining schedule of the C-USA Tournament has been jostled. Following tomorrow mornings Tulane/UCF matchup, fourth-seeded Houston will battle No. 8 seed UAB at 12:30, followed by the Southern Miss/Marshall contest at 4 p.m. The final game of the day is slated for 7:30 p.m. when fifth-seeded East Carolina - which eliminated regular-season champion Rice with a 4-3 win on Thursday morning - will play the loser of the Houston/UAB ballgame. The winner of the Tulane/UCF game will open day four of the C-USA Tournament at 9 a.m., and will take on the loser of Friday's Southern Miss/Marshall meeting. For tickets to the 2008 Entergy Conference USA Baseball Championship, contact the Tulane Athletics Ticket Office at (504) 861-WAVE or log onto the internet at www.TulaneGreenWave.com.
