Rescheduling Amid Weather
The Patriot League announced that Game 3 of the championship series between Bucknell and Holy Cross has been moved to 10 a.m. on Wednesday because of inclement weather.
The contest will be held at Depew Field in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, a venue that has hosted the series in recent years and will now serve as the backdrop for the decisive matchup.
Bucknell entered the series after a 9‑5 victory in Game 2, while Holy Cross secured a 11‑2 win in the opener, setting up a tightly contested best‑of‑three format.
This matchup marks the first Game 3 in the rivalry since 2022, adding a fresh narrative to a competition that has produced eight previous championships since 2008.
Bucknell is chasing its first Patriot League title since 2014, a milestone that would cap a season of steady improvement and reinforce the program’s resurgence.
The series has become a staple of the league’s postseason, with eight of the nine championship finals reaching a decisive third game since 2008, underscoring the competitiveness of the Patriot League.
