There was no way that a game could have been scheduled for Sunday, as that is Bucknell's graduation day. |

HC's pitching looked strong Saturday - in the first game Coach D sent in relievers who were perfect for their roles and the second was just as well coached. HC hit quite well against Bucknell in the earlier series. Both teams, as is common in the Northeast near mid May, are really rounding into form right now.
Should be a great series. Like last year's nailbiter (v Navy) - but hopefully a better ending for the Crusaders.

Is there an obvious reason why no doubleheader on Friday?

One reason could be the availability of umpires on Friday afternoon.

One reason could be the availability of umpires on Friday afternoon. Possible but unlikely, since they are able to find plenty of umpires for plenty of midweek games during the season. With the season almost over, there are far less games now than there were in March or April. |

With the season almost over, there are far less games now than there were in March or April. Maybe they'd actually like some parents/fans to show up? Not everyone can take a day off Friday to get to the games. |

With the season almost over, there are far less games now than there were in March or April. Plus the same umpires that are doing Friday's game will do Saturday. I spoke to one of them after the Navy game and they work the ENTIRE weekend of a regular season series so expect the same in the postseason. |

Yes, it's definitely the same crew for the entirety of each postseason series, just as it is for the regular season. |
