CARROLTON, Ga. - The West Florida baseball team travels to Carrolton, Ga. to play No. 28 West Georgia in a series that was moved up one day in an attempt to avoid poor weather in the forecast.
The Argonauts (15-9, 9-6) play the Wolves (17-7, 11-4) in a single game Friday, March 20, at 6 p.m. ET. The teams will conclude the series with a doubleheader Saturday, March 21, at noon ET.
UWF, which received votes in the latest Collegiate Baseball national poll, dropped out of the national rankings for the first time this season. The Argos still have two series against nationally-ranked opponents on the schedule: No. 28 UWG and No. 30 West  Alabama April 18-19.
