First pitch is now scheduled for 1:00 pm at Brooks Field on the campus of UNC Wilmington due to heavy rain in the Wilmington area throughout the day Tuesday.

The Match-Up
The College and Delaware meet for the 17th time on Wednesday afternoon when the teams meet in the opening game of the 2017 CAA Tournament. The Cougars hold a 12-4 advantage in the all-time series after Delaware took two-of-three from CofC this past weekend.
Last Time Out
The Cougars bounced back with an 11-7 win over Delaware on Saturday to prevent a weekend sweep by the Blue Hens. Tommy Richter paced the offense with a 4-for-6 afternoon that included a home run and five RBIs, while Danny Wondrack went 3-for-5 and drove in three.
Richter Rakin'
Junior Tommy Richter provided a substantial boost to the Cougar offense in Saturday's win over Delaware, going 4-for-6 with one homer and five RBIs. The effort allowed Richter to vault into the CAA lead in batting average on the final day of the regular season. The balance of his output came in the seventh inning, when he led off the frame with a home run before sending a bases-clearing three-run double to center later in the inning.
Stuffing the Trophy Case
Redshirt sophomore Logan McRae and Tommy Richter each took home All-CAA First Team honors on Tuesday to pace five Cougars amongst the league's postseason honorees. Evan Sisk and Carter Love both earned a spot on the Second Team, while Jakob Frishmuth was named to the All-Rookie Team.
Scouting Delaware
Delaware carries a 30-21 overall record into the CAA Tournament, and is the fourth seed after taking two-of-three from CofC this past weekend.
Nick Patten leads the Blue Hens with 13 home runs and 45 RBIs while batting .306. Doug Trimble carries a .343 batting average with six homers and 43 RBIs, while Jordan Glover is batting .331 with 10 bombs and 44 driven in. Wednesday's starter Ron Marinaccio carries a 3-2 record with a 2.19 ERA and 60 strikeouts.
