Emory Baseball Aims for a Bounce-Back Weekend in North Carolina

The Emory University baseball team will try to put an end to its five-game losing streak this weekend, as the Eagles will play at Guilford College on Friday, and at Methodist University on Saturday and Sunday.

The Eagles will begin the weekend with a record of 13-16, including a 2-5 record in road games.  Emory is coming off a 6-5 loss to Oglethorpe University at Chappell Park on Wednesday, its fifth-consecutive loss.

Guilford currently stands at 13-17 on the year, including a record of 8-9 at home, and has lost four-straight games.  Emory is 2-0 all time against Guilford, but the Eagles have not faced the Quakers since the 1996 season.  Friday’s game, which will start at 3:00 PM, will have an audio webcast, accessible here.

Methodist, which received votes in the latest d3baseball.com poll, stands at 22-8 on the season, including a 13-6 record at home this year.  Emory is 16-17-1 all time against Methodist, including a pair of losses at home to the Monarchs last season.  Saturday's game against Methodist is slated for a 1:00 PM first pitch, while Sunday's contest will begin at 2:00 PM.
