HATTIESBURG, Miss. – The Southern Miss baseball team takes to the road to face Sun Belt Conference foe ULM in a three-game weekend series, starting Friday in Monroe with a 6 p.m., contest at Lou St. Amant Field.
Â
All three games can be viewed via ESPN+, as well as heard on an affiliate of the Southern Miss Sports Network.
Â
The Golden Eagles (15-6 overall, 2-1 Sun Belt) enter the weekend having won six of their last seven contests, including a 6-2 decision over Ole Miss Tuesday night at Trustmark Park in Pearl. They play a ULM team that holds a 9-11 overall mark, including a 1-2 record in league play after dropping two of three at James Madison last weekend.
Â
This is the third-straight year the two teams are playing as league opponents with the Golden Eagles winning five of six games during this time. In a series that dates back to 1960, Southern Miss holds a 54-20 advantage as well as a 21-12 mark over the Warhawks in Monroe.
Â
Southern Miss takes a balanced squad, both offensively and on the mound into its weekend series. The Golden Eagles hold a .282 team batting average with 27 home runs and 123 runs driven in this season. Their pitching staff also has posted a 3.89 earned run average with 197 strikeouts and just 68 walks in 185 innings this spring.
Â
Sophomore Jake Cook leads the way offensively for Southern Miss with a .466 batting average, which ranks No. 6 in the NCAA national statistics. Cook currently possesses a team-best eight-game hitting streak as he is hitting .613 (19-of-31) during this stretch.
Â
With his three-run homer versus Ole Miss on Tuesday, Davis Gillespie now is tied for the team lead in home runs with Carson Paetow at six, while also retaking the team's RBI lead with 22.
Â
Golden Eagle starters also continue to pitch well as they have racked up a combined 9-4 record with a 2.66 ERA over 98 innings, which includes 101 strikeouts and only 26 walks.
Â
Following the ULM series, the Golden Eagles return to action on Tuesday night at 6 p.m. against Nicholls when they travel to Keesler Federal Park in Biloxi. Southern Miss will be the designated home team.
