1-11-08 

The Lewis-Clark State College baseball team will play 30 home games this season and will kick off play on Feb. 15 at home against state rival College of Idaho in the Regence BlueShield of Idaho Tournament at LCSC’s Harris Field. 

The Warriors will play a Region I schedule that features three-game home and away series against the University of British Columbia, College of Idaho, Concordia University, Oregon Tech and Corban College. 

LCSC also will play NCAA Division I schools Gonzaga and the University of Washington twice. LCSC plays host to Gonzaga on March 2 and will travel to Spokane and meet the Zags on April 23. LCSC will travel to Seattle twice to play UW, the first on Feb. 28 and then later on May 13. 

Missing from LCSC’s schedule this season is the annual Banana Belt Tournament and games with Washington State University.  

The Warriors play host to the Regence BlueShield of Idaho tournament on Feb. 15-17. The Warriors will be joined by Mayville State, an NAIA school in North Dakota, Whitworth of Spokane and College of Idaho. A week later, five teams will participate in the Guardian Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning Tournament on Feb. 21-24. Joining LCSC will be St. Martin’s Western Oregon, British Columbia, and Montana State-Billings. 

In non-Region I play, LCSC will take on Dixie State of Utah in a three-game home and away series. LCSC also will travel to St. Martin’s and play back-to-back home and away games with Whitworth on April 16 and 17. 

LCSC will again take part in the Region I Tournament on May 8-11 but will not be allowed to host the tournament. If the Warriors win the Region I title they would play host to the best-of-three Super Regional, which would start either May 15 or 16. 

The 10-team Avista NAIA World Series will be held May 23-29 at LCSC’s Harris Field. LCSC will receive an automatic berth to the tournament.
