The University of Tennessee at Martin baseball team announced on May 16 that its scheduled contest with Southern Illinois University Edwardsville has been canceled because of weather in the Edwardsville, Illinois area.
The cancellation comes after the Skyhawks and Cougars split their series, with UT Martin winning the previous night’s game 8-7 in 11 innings. The decision affects both teams as they prepare for postseason play.
UT Martin will now enter the Ohio Valley Conference Baseball Championships as the number seven seed. The team is set to compete in Marion, Illinois at 3 p.m. on Tuesday, May 19.
This development impacts both programs’ regular season conclusions and preparations for conference championships. No further details about rescheduling or changes were provided.
