Baseball adds game to schedule

Tuesday, March 10, 2009

After playing only three of the scheduled four games against Northwestern this weekend because of rain and lightning delays, coach Ritch Price and the Jayhawks have filled in their schedule with a game today at 3 p.m. against Division II Missouri Valley College.

The Jayhawks will be the Vikings’ first Division I opponent of the season. Missouri Valley College has struggled to a 2-11 record so far this year, including two double-digit shellackings at the hands of Oklahoma City University.

The matchup will likely amount to a warm-up game for Kansas before a brutal stretch starting Wednesday against perennial power Wichita State. The game should serve as an opportunity for Price to get a look at some of the new Jayhawks in game situations.

Freshman Lee Ridenhour, who has played well for the Jayhawks in three appearances this year, is slated to start Wednesday against the Shockers. Junior Brett Bollman will start against the Vikings today. Bollman made his first appearance of the season Sunday, going one inning with one hit and no runs scored.
