UWM prepares for Austin Peay State University Classic

Milwaukee will look to get their first winning streak of the young season as they travel to Clarksville, Tennessee for the APSU Classic. Weather has already caused a cancellation of one game for the Panthers, who were originally scheduled to play four games.

Instead of two games on Saturday, Milwaukee will ONLY play the Illinois State Redbird (2-2). Sunday is still scheduled for one game each against Illinois St. and Austin Peay (3-0).

In a twist of starting pitchers, the Panthers will look to Chad Pierce, Jordan Guth and Eric Semmelhack for quality performances. Semmelhack replaces Jayme Sukowaty from a week ago in Tennessee There is no current word on if Sukowaty is injured or if it was just a performance based move for the Panthers.

APSU's website will have live statistics available for each game and ISU will have live audio available with John Twork on the call.

Don't think we will be posting much on here or on Twitter for this weekend but as soon as we can we'll write up a story about it.

Congratulations to Doug Dekoning on being named Horizon League Batter of the Week after hitting .500 (6-12) in a three game series against Tennessee. The senior also knocked in four runs in the series.
