JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - The Lincoln softball team will host six games in four days, all MIAA contests and all at Vogel Field at the Ellis-Porter Park Complex in Jefferson City.

Due to predicted thunderstorms in the area on Friday (March 31), Lincoln will open the weekend on Saturday (April 1) by hosting Rogers State in a 1:00 p.m. CDT double-header. On Sunday (April 2), the Blue Tigers play Northeastern State in a 12:00 p.m. CDT twinbill. Lincoln will then play Central Missouri on Tuesday (April 4) in a double-header scheduled to begin at 1:00 p.m. CDT.

With the changes in the schedule over the weekend, LU's home twinbill against McKendree, scheduled for Wednesday (April 5), has been canceled.
