It’s Opening Day! Virginia, James Madison & Others Kick Off 2021 College Baseball Season
Things are about to get crazy around here, especially at places like James Madison where all three major sports will be playing games at the same time. FCS teams are getting ready to start their spring football schedule, overlapping a few weeks with the college hoops season and running parallel to baseball season, which opens this afternoon. Several local teams will be in action today on the diamond, highlighted by Virginia (who doesn’t have football to worry about right now) hosting UConn, and JMU at North Carolina on ACC Network. Check out the entire baseball schedule for today and the weekend below — weather permitting, of course.
