The No. 15 Vols (1-0) were originally slated to play the Colonels over three days. Instead, due to possible inclement weather, there will be two games at Lindsey Nelson Stadium on Feb. 14. The first game will still begin at 1 p.m., while the second game starts 45 minutes after the conclusion of the first game.
Tennessee had no trouble defeating Nicholls to open the season on Feb. 13.
The Vols eased into a 10-0 win that was cut short to eight innings because of the run rule.
Sophomore pitcher Tegan Kuhns started for the Vols in the opener. Rutgers transfer Landon Mack is expected to start the first game on Feb. 14, and Virginia transfer Evan Blanco the finale.
