THIS WEEK
The Coker College softball team (19-7, 0-2) will be host the Lenoir-Rhyne University Bears on Wednesday (Mar. 20) for a South Atlantic Conference doubleheader starting at 2:00 PM. Following Wednesday's contest, the Cobras will host Mount Olive for a non-conference doubleheader on Thursday (Mar. 21) at 2:00 before traveling to Lander on Saturday (Mar. 23) for the final non-conference doubleheader of the year.
The Cobras are coming off of a pair of tough losses in the conference-opening series on the road at Mars Hill which they led in both games before the Lions fought back for the win.
Lenoir-Rhyne will begin their SAC slate with Wednesday's doubleheader as they come into the games with a 15-8 record this season. The Bears, a perennial power in the conference, were selected as the favorites in the Preseason South Atlantic Conference Softball Poll after taking the regular season title last season and ending the year at the NCAA regionals.
Conference Carolinas foe Mount Olive will take on the Cobras for the second time this season after being swept in their first doubleheader at the beginning of the season. The Trojans currently sit at 17-9 on the season and are winners of nine of their last 10 ballgames.
