Georgia's baseball squad will resume its NCAA Regional contest against Long Island University at 9 a.m. on Saturday, May 29, after a rain‑induced postponement left the team up 15‑1 in the sixth inning.
A pivotal afternoon awaits
The Bulldogs, fresh off a six‑home‑run burst, now stand on the cusp of a double‑header that could reshape their tournament path. A victory would pit them against No. 3 seed Liberty at 5 p.m., while a loss would send them to face No. 2 seed Boston College at noon.
Meteorologists have trimmed the morning rain probability to 53 percent at 9 a.m., with chances dropping to 17 percent by 11 a.m., but an afternoon storm threat looms, adding urgency to the schedule.
Both Liberty and Boston College enter the picture as formidable opponents. Liberty, the national No. 3 seed, boasts a strong pitching staff, while Boston College, seeded second, brings a disciplined lineup that could test the Bulldogs' bullpen.
The winner of the Georgia‑Long Island matchup will advance to the evening showdown with Liberty, a game that could determine the regional champion. Meanwhile, the loser will still have a chance to compete for third place against Boston College, ensuring a full slate of action for the Athens crowd.
