FURMAN SOFTBALL DOUBLEHEADER CANCELLED

GREENVILLE, South Carolina -- Furman softball's doubleheader versus North Carolina, scheduled for 2 p.m. today at Pepsi Stadium, has been cancelled due to wet field conditions and more rain in the forecast. The twinbill will not be rescheduled.

The Lady Paladins were victorious in their first Southern Conference series of the season this past weekend at UNC Greensboro. Furman rebounded from a 4-3 loss in game one to down the Spartans 9-5 and 2-1.

Furman, 7-29 overall and 2-1 in SoCon play, return to action this weekend hosting conference rival Georgia Southern in a three-game series. The series will open with a 1 p.m. doubleheader on Saturday and conclude with a single game at 1 p.m. Sunday.
