Game 1: #3 Ohio State vs. #2 Louisiana-Lafayette

By Jack Molitor - June 01, 2007

It's partly cloudy in College Station and 83 degrees. There's a nice breeze blowing into Olsen Field, which should be advantageous for the pitchers today.

Ohio State coach Bob Todd announced sophomore righty Jake Hale (4-3) as his starter. Hale is making only his third start of the season. He's made 25 appearances overall with a 4.19 ERA.

Louisiana Lafayette coach Tony Robicheaux has listed sophomore righty Danny Farquhar (6-3) as the starter for the Cajuns. He has only made five starts this year out of his 29 appearances. He has a 2.80 ERA.

Lafayette just went out for the last fielding drills. We're about 20 minutes from the first pitch.
