First Meeting In Program History Between Ospreys and Pirates
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - North Florida baseball welcomes Seton Hall to Harmon Stadium for their final non-conference weekend series of the ‘24 season from Mar. 8-10.
UNF is coming off back-to-back losses this week and are hoping to get back on track against the Pirates. The Ospreys allowed 27 runs in the two midweek games and fell to 7-5 this season.
Last Time Out
North Florida dropped a midweek game against North Carolina A&T. The Ospreys kept the game close, but a controversial call allowed the inning to continue and the Aggies scored four runs. The Ospreys trailed 10-1 at one point, but were able to cut the lead in half. The Ospreys would fall to NC A&T, losing 10-5. The Ospreys are now 1-4 in midweek games this season.
Scouting Seton Hall
Seton Hall enters this weekend with a record of 7-4 and have played all but one game away from their home. The Pirates are off to a strong start this season. They defeated Michigan State in an opening weekend tournament and won a series against Georgia State. Last weekend, they split a four game set against FIU and are now hitting .287 as a team. The pitching, while not as good as the offense, has still been strong, as they have a team ERA of 4.73.
UNF will broadcast Friday’s and Saturday’s game on ESPN+. Updates for both games will be made through live stats, as well as on X/Twitter at @OspreyBSB and Instagram at @OspreysBSB.
