Notes
 
Last Time Out...
Presbyterian returns home after falling in three low-scoring affairs at Winthrop over the weekend. In the series opener, Jaiden Tweed got PC off to a good start, homering to center field two batters into the contest to give the Blue Hose an early 1-0 edge. Winthrop tied it in the third, then hit a walk-off home run in the bottom of the seventh to win 3-1. The Eagles held Presbyterian off of the scoreboard in each of the final two games of the series, taking the final two contests by scores of 3-0 and 2-0.
 
Home Sweet Home...
Following their six-game road trip, Presbyterian returns to Clinton for a five-game homestand this week, starting with Wednesday's twin bill against Western Carolina. This weekend, PC hosts its second Big South Conference series, as Longwood comes to town for a three-game set. The Blue Hose are 6-2 at home in 2021.
 
Pitching Leading the Way...
The Blue Hose yielded eight runs in their three-game weekend set at Winthrop, extending their streak of allowing three runs or fewer to six games in a row. Presbyterian enters the week second in the Big South in team ERA at 2.65, and leads the conference in both opponents' batting average (.208) and strikeout rate (7.18/7). The starting duo of Haley Haselden and Jenna Greene has led the way for the PC staff, with Haselden ranking second in the conference with a 2.32 ERA and Greene sitting in fourth with a 2.72 ERA. The duo also boasts the top two opponents' batting averages in the league, with Greene at .194 and Haselden at .199.
