HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – Marshall baseball heads Morgantown to face the West Virginia Mountaineers at Monongalia County Ballpark on Friday (Oct. 3). First pitch is set for 6:30 p.m.
 
This will be the second matchup of the fall as the two teams met last Friday (Sept. 27) in Charleston.
 
In the contest, Luke Edwards went 3-for-4 in the contest with a run scored and a pair of RBI.
 
Last season Marshall finished with a 29-28 record ending the season with an appearance at the 2019 Conference USA Championship in Biloxi, Miss. MU earned a 6-4 victory over third-seeded Louisiana Tech in the opening game of the tournament.
 
The Herd didn't lose a series at home during the 2019 campaign putting up a 17-7 record at the Kennedy Center and dropping just four home C-USA games, including a series sweep of Rice in the final three games of the regular season.
 
Marshall also had Joshua Shapiro and Elvis Peralta, Jr., taken in the 2019 MLB Draft by the Milwaukee Brewers and Oakland A's, respectively. Peralta was named first-team all-conference, while Shapiro was on the second-team.
