The Cameron baseball team is off to their best start in the program's NCAA Division II era, moving to 7-0 last weekend after sweeping a home-and-home series against Southern Nazarene. The Aggies started the series in Bethany, taking the opener 7-1 in seven innings and 13-4 for game two in nine innings. The Aggies had a combined 25 hits on the road, with Cody Bower going 8-for-13 with five RBI and four stolen bases. CU's pitching staff held SNU to eight hits.
 
On Saturday, the Aggies opened their home season defeating the Crimson Storm 5-1 in game one, and capping the night with a 13-3 run-rule victory. Javarias Banks struck out ten batters and allowed only one run in game one. At McCord Field, the Aggies accounted for six stolen bases, eight doubles, and four homeruns.

The Opponent
William Jewell (0-0) 
The Cardinals were predicted to finish fourth in the Great Lakes Valley Conference West Division's preseason poll. The team is coming off a 38-19 campaign and the program's first appearance in the NCAA Tournament in 2015. Jewell went 1-2 in the tournament, falling to Truman State in the opener, then bouncing back to grab a win over the Quincy team that eliminated them from the GLVC tournament the previous week, before Ashland knocked the Cards out with a 5-3 victory. The Cardinals welcome back several players from the 38-19 team, including an 11 member senior class.
