Kentucky Softball moves series opener vs. Arkansas due to weather

Mother Nature is creating all sorts of scheduling changes today. With storms expected to roll into the Lexington area this evening, Kentucky Softball is pushing tonight’s series opener vs. No. 11/12 Arkansas to tomorrow. On Saturday, the Cats will play a doubleheader vs. the Razorbacks, with the first game starting at 2 p.m. ET and the second game starting as scheduled at 6 p.m. The second game will air on ESPN2, while broadcast information for the first game is still to be determined.

If you’re headed to John Cropp Stadium tomorrow, the venue will not be cleared between games, so tickets for both Friday and Saturday’s games will be valid for entry on Saturday. Ticket holders for Friday’s games will have priority seating for the 2 p.m. ET game and ticket holders for Saturday’s game will have priority seating for the 6 p.m. ET game. Gates will open at 1 p.m. ET.

On Tuesday, Kentucky beat Northern Kentucky 9-0 in five innings to get back on track after being swept by Tennessee the weekend prior. The Cats are now 26-13-1 on the season, 7-8 in SEC play. Arkansas is 32-12 this season, 9-6 in conference play. The Razorbacks are the reigning SEC Tournament Champions.

In case you missed it earlier, the Kentucky Baseball team moved the start of its series vs. Texas A&M to 4 p.m. today in an attempt to beat the storms. First pitch was originally scheduled for 6:30 p.m. You can watch the game on SEC Network+.
