BOCA RATON, Fla. – The No. 20 Florida Atlantic University baseball team will have their final home non-conference series of the year this weekend, starting Thursday night, as the Owls host Indiana State for the first time in program history.

Owls' Midweek in Review
The Owls (8-3) played their fifth game against a ranked opponent on Tuesday (and fourth game being ranked themselves), losing to Miami on the road. FAU has won three of four games against Top 25 foes, and are 2-2 while being in the polls.

Owls' Weekend in Preview
Indiana State (7-4) has been road warriors to start the year, mostly in the Sunshine State, and too have had matchups against ranked squads. After starting the year with neutral games in Port Charlotte, Florida, the Sycamores split a four-game set against then-No. 16 Tennessee. Since, they have won four games in row against common Owl opponents: a three-game sweep at FIU, and a midweek win Tuesday at Florida Gulf Coast.

Weekend Probable Starting Pitchers
Thursday: FAU – Javi Rivera, RHP (1-0, 10.80) vs. ISU – Connor Cline, RHP (2-0, 2.45)
Friday: FAU – TBD vs. ISU – Geremy Guerrero, LHP (2-0, 1.65)
Saturday: FAU – Matt Sparling, LHP (1-0, 5.74) vs. ISU – Tristan Weaver, LHP (0-0, 6.23)

Opponent History
Despite fielding a program since 1896, ISU has never competed against FAU.
