LAGRANGE, Ga. – No. 13/16 LaGrange (25-11, 11-4 CCS) baseball closes out both an eight game road swing and the regular season non-conference schedule as they head to Atlanta, Georgia to take on Emory (27-11, 13-2 UAA) on Tuesday, April 25. First pitch is slated for 3 p.m.

The Panthers enter off of a 2-2 week that saw them reach the highs of pounding No. 2/1 Birmingham-Southern (4/18) on the road by a 15-3 score and notching a 7-4 come-from-behind victory in the opener at Maryville (4/21) to dropping the series over the next two days by scores of 11-8 and 7-2.

Emory closes out their regular season after setting a program single season record for wins and clinching the outright regular season title in the University Athletic Association (UAA). They have won 16 of their last 18 dating back to March 25 with their only loses coming to Case Western Reserve (7-4 on 4/2) and 14-4 to Berry (4/18). It has also been a stretch that saw them score 62 runs in one day with 31-4 and 31-7 decisions over Brandeis (4/8).
