IUP baseball (11-23, 7-13 PSAC West) gets back to divisional play this weekend as the Crimson Hawks square off against Seton Hill (20-17, 12-8 PSAC West).

NOTES
>> The Crimson Hawks are coming off of a doubleheader split at Shippensburg Wednesday, falling 12-7 in game one and winning game two by a score of 7-3; IUP dropped all four games to Slippery Rock last weekend
>> Seton Hill swept West Liberty Monday and took three of four in its weekend series with Pitt-Johnstown
>> IUP enters the weekend five games back of Seton Hill and Gannon in the PSAC West standings; those two are tied for third in the division at 12-8
>> These teams split their 2017 series, with the Crimson Hawks and Griffins both winning once on the road; three of those four games were decided by one run
>>Wes Carson (Woodstock, Md./Marriots Ridge) hit .583 with seven hits and a 1.083 slugging percentage against Seton Hill last year
>> Mike Klingensmith (Punxsutawney, Pa./Punxsutawney) in a start and Dan Roan (Bellefonte, PA/Bellefonte) in relief picked up the two wins on the mound against the Griffins
>> Ted DeSanti (Erie, Pa./Erie Cathedral Prep) leads the Crimson Hawks and is tied for ninth in the PSAC with seven home runs this season; he went yard four times during the Clarion series and hit another Wednesday at Shippensburg
