Once again, the Wildcats have
one of the tougher schedules in

ranked at one time or another in the
Division II top 20, two that were
participants in the Division II play
offs, including the defending na

The Wildcats will open with the
defending national champions,
North Alabama, in Henderson
Stadium in Macon on Sept. 3.
Posey came into the game to hit for
Laumine Byrd, who had a walk and
hit in the game. Sellers was
rewarded for his move when Posey
connected on a triple to left to score
three runs. Posey would come
around to score on Biggers' single
to center.
