WSSU baseball team to play host to Atlantic Region

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina  --  Winston-Salem State was awarded the No. 2 seed in the Atlantic Region baseball tournament and will play host to the region later this week.     

The Rams (38-11) will take on fifth-seeded East Stroudsburg (33-16) on Thursday at Wake Forest Baseball Park.
 
Coach Kevin Ritsche of the Rams said they were hoping to get the No. 1 seed in the region but he loves the fact they won’t be traveling.

“It’s a big deal not to have to go anywhere but across town to Wake Forest,” Ritsche said. “By the time you travel to a regional and then try to get practice in and everything else it’s definitely rushed.”

The other games on Thursday at Wake Forest Baseball Park will be top-seeded Millersville (38-16) against sixth-seeded Concord (36-18) and third-seeded Seton Hill (39-15) against fourth-seeded Shippensburg (28-20).
