Ute coach Bill Kinneberg was elated to be playing at home.
“Playing at home is the best,” Kinneberg said. “You know the ins-and-outs of your own field, but the best thing is that you know that you will be batting in the last half of the inning.”
The Utes will head east this weekend to compete in a three -game series against UNC-Wilmington beginning Friday at 7 p.m.
