Baseball plays at Tufts in NESCAC championship quarterfinal series

Teams play two games on May 4 and a third game, if necessary, on May 5

The Hamilton College Continentals travel to Tufts University in Medford, Mass., for a 2024 New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) Baseball Championship quarterfinal series that starts on Saturday, May 4 at Tufts' Sol Gittleman Park.

The best two-out-of-three series starts at noon on Saturday and the second game takes place about 30 minutes after the completion of Game 1. If the teams split the two Saturday games, a deciding third game is played at 11 a.m. on Sunday, May 5. All games will last at least nine innings.

If Hamilton wins the series the Continentals return to Tufts for NESCAC Championship Weekend, which starts on Friday, May 10.
