CHARLESTON, S.C. – College of Charleston returns home for the first of a five game homestand when old in-state rival Wofford comes calling in a Tuesday tilt from Patriots Point. Charleston looks to rebound after dropping their first CAA series of the season while Wofford comes in off a series win over Siena in Spartanburg.
 
Tuesday's matchup is the first in Charleston since the 2012 season when the Cougars were members of the Southern Conference and just the second meeting since the 2013 season. Wofford won the 2021 midweek matchup 12-5 in Spartanburg.
 
Wofford was picked to repeat as SoCon champions in the preseason poll, the first team on Charleston's schedule in 2023 tabbed a preseason favorite in a conference. The Cougars were also tabbed preseason favorites grabbing nine of the 11 possible first place votes by their CAA peers.
 
Charleston plays their first home midweek contest since a two-game sweep of Longwood March 7-8 while Wofford plays their fourth-straight road midweek and fifth overall.
