 Who: Gardner-Webb When: Wednesday, March 1, 2023 Time: 4:00 pm Where: John Henry Moss Stadium, Boiling Springs, NC TV/video: none Radio: none Live Stats: GWU Live StatsConference: Big South Nickname: Runnin' Gulldogs Location: Boiling Springs, NC Colors: Scarlet & Black Mascot: Mac and Lulu Message Board: none This season's record: 4-4 overall, 4-4 home, 0-0 away, 0-0 neutral The Series: The Cats are 18-10 oveerall vs. the dogs, having won 4 of the last 5 games between the two teams. . Head Coach: Jim Chester is in his third year as the head coach of the Gardner-Webb baseball team after taking over the program in June 2019. Gardner-Webb baseball was tabbed fourth in the 2023 Big South Conference baseball poll, as head coach Jim Chester returns the bulk of his offensive talent from the 2022 season, paced by All-Big South selections Alec Burns, Jacob Marcos and Curtis Robison. After dropping four of their first five games, the Runnin' Bulldogs have reeled off 3 straight wins coming into Wednesday's game against the Cats. Losing a second midweek game to another Big South team would not be good. |

It's embarrassing dropping two games to big south teams in the first two weeks of the season.

It's embarrassing dropping two games to big south teams in the first two weeks of the season. Get use to it, we've got another game with GWU, two more with USC Upstate and one game with Asheville. |

No sport at Western Carolina should be allowed to sink so low, that that they are regularly beaten by Big South teams. Everyone says we are "better" than the Big South, however, we're continually beaten by their teams in the sports we play them.
If we can't be Big South teams in men & women's sports, we certainly can't be SoCon teams.
