KINGSVILLE, Texas (Baseball) – Inclement weather has forced Texas A&M University-Kingsville (15-7, 9-2 LSC) to push back its weekend series versus No. 13/6 Angelo State University (18-4, 8-3 LSC) to doubleheaders on Sunday, March 22 and Monday, March 23.
First pitch is set for 1 p.m. both days and the first game on both days will be seven innings, with the second scheduled for nine.
