It is finally here, Oklahoma Wesleyan begins play in the NAIA World Series on Friday afternoon.

The Eagles will open things up against Missouri Baptist in the first round of that 10-team double-elimination tournament. First pitch comes at 1:30 PM CST on Friday at Harris Field in Lewiston, Idaho. Missouri Baptist is 44-14.

The Spartans upset the Hutchinson, Kansas Regional last week en route to the World Series. OKWU out-slugged Indiana Tech to qualify for its second World Series in program history. Eagle head baseball coach Matt Parker previews Missouri Baptist.

Oklahoma Wesleyan is 51-10 on the season. The Eagles are the no. 3 seed in the tournament. They have been a top-three team in the country the past six or seven weeks.
