Freshman RHP Grant Williams will make his eighth straight mid-week start Tuesday night.
Tennessee Tech will have a quick turnaround, as they are finishing its series against Belmont today at 1 p.m. TTU has dominated all year, already winning two games against Belmont and holding a 20-3 record in the Ohio Valley Conference.
