NATCHITOCHES -- Friday's Southland Conference baseball series opener between Nicholls and Northwestern State has been moved to a 2 p.m. start. 

A rain-heavy forecast led to the decision to move the game to an earlier start. 

The game still will air on ESPN+. Tickets for the originally scheduled 6:30 p.m. start will be accepted as normal.
