Cullowhee, N.C. – Cold, steady rain showers throughout the day on Friday and unfavorable weather forecasts into the evening hours have prompted officials within Western Carolina Athletics to cancel the Catamount baseball series opener against Georgia State. The game had been pegged for a 4 p.m. first pitch at Childress Field / Hennon Stadium.
Patrons who had purchased advanced tickets for Friday afternoon's game can use those tickets for any of the three remaining series games this weekend – or exchange for admission use at any future Catamount baseball home game this season.
