The highly anticipated weekend series between No. 1 Texas and South Carolina is officially put on hold for at least one day.
The future SEC foes will not play on Friday night as planned due to harsh rain in the Carolina area. The two will instead start the series with one game on Saturday, followed by a doubleheader on Sunday.
Update on the doubleheader format for Sunday.

Texas is looking to bounce back from a midweek loss to Texas State on Wednesday. The Horns also got devastating news this week after learning RHP Tanner Witt will miss the rest of the season due to a UCL injury. Young pitchers Lucas Gordon, Andre Duplantier and Luke Harrison will be tasked to step up after the loss of Witt.
The Longhorns are already 5-0 on the season against SEC competition, with wins over Alabama (3), LSU (1) and Tennessee (1).
