BOCA RATON, Fla. – The Florida Atlantic University baseball team (3-2) will return home following the first road trip of the year to play host to Delaware for a three-series starting at 6:30 p.m. Friday night.
FAU is riding a high after taking three of four versus Minnesota and celebrating sophomore Jalen DeBose's breakout weekend, which garnered the centerfielder Conference USA Hitter of the Week honors. The Owls were unable to get the road win at No. 24 Miami on Wednesday, however.

Sophomore Nolan Schanual led the Owls with a solo home run to right versus the Canes. At the time, the blast tied the score but Owl miscues led to the 9-1 final.Newcomer Armando Albert has started each of the Owls' five games and is leading the team with a .412 batting average. The leadoff hitter has one triple and one home run this season. Steven Loden picked up where he left off a year ago and is hitting .400 with a double. Leftfielder Gabriel Rincones, Jr. has a team leading three homer runs and matches Jalen DeBose's 10 RBI. On the mound, Hunter Cooley leads the way with a 1-0 record and a 2.70 ERA.
