Posted: Feb 03, 2014

JEFFERSON CITY, Tenn. – Due to the threat of inclement weather Sunday, Carson-Newman softball's doubleheader with Lees-McRae has been moved to Thursday, Feb. 6 at 1 p.m. 

That moves Carson-Newman's opening contest up a day; it had initially been set for Friday at Fort Valley State. 

The Eagles took a pair of run-rule games from the Bobcats last season 12-2 and 8-0 at home.  In game one of that series, Brittany Hefner (Talbott, Tenn.) matched the single-game school record for RBI with eight.  She came a single short of the cycle in that contest.

Carson-Newman hasn't lost an opening day game since 2011 when it fell on the road to Bellarmine 2-0.  Carson-Newman hasn't lost a home opener  in a decade.
