HUNTSVILLE, Ala. | The UAH baseball team will host Montevallo this weekend in a Gulf South Conference series at Charger Park, with adjustments made to the schedule due to impending weather.
The Chargers and Falcons will now open the series with a doubleheader on Friday beginning at 1 p.m., followed by a single game on Saturday at 10 a.m.
UAH enters the weekend with a 7-11 overall record and a 4-5 mark in Gulf South Conference play, coming off a five-game road trip in which the Chargers went 3-2, including a 13-12 victory over UT Southern earlier in the week.
