MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – Coming off its opening conference series win against WKU, the first since 2015, Middle Tennessee prepares to travel to Nashville opponent Lipscomb for a midweek contest on Tuesday, March 20th.
The Bison currently lead the all-time series between the two schools 29-24.
The Blue Raiders (11-9) had a strong showing last week, shutting out Austin Peay and winning two-out-of-three against the Hilltoppers. The bats remained hot as well, as Middle Tennessee averaged 6.75 runs per contest in last week's games.
Senior Aaron Aucker is leading the way for MT at the plate, hitting at a .320 clip with six doubles and six home runs. Aucker also leads the Blue Raiders in RBI (26) and total bases (48).
Grant Williams is scheduled to start on the mound for the Blue Raiders. Williams has been completely dominant in his last two starts, throwing a combined 12.0 scoreless innings on only four hits and nine strikeouts.
Meanwhile, Lipscomb (9-11) has been up and down this season, including series wins at home against Michigan and UNC-Ashville.
Both teams share several common opponents, such as Tennessee, Fairleigh Dickinson, Kent State and Indiana State, with the Bison only winning one game against the four opponents.
Lipscomb is led at the plate by a pair of upperclassman, senior catcher Jeffrey Crisan and junior third baseman Zeke Dodson.
Crisan leads all batters on Lipscomb with a .404 batting average and .617 slugging percentage. Meanwhile Dodson is second on the team in batting average (.351) and leads in hits (26), triples (three) and RBI (17).
First pitch at Ken Dugan Field has been moved to 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Fans can tune in to the Blue Raider Network on 100.5/101.9 for the call.
