Game 3: #4 Campbell vs. #3 Old Dominion
The Camels and Monarchs fight to survive in the opening game of the day. The winner looks forward to a best-case scenario where they play the top two seeds on Sunday in some order, depending on the winner of the nightcap. Even if they can win both of those games, they would still require another victory over the winner of tonight's match-up on Monday evening to advance out of the regional. That four-game win streak seems unlikely for either of these clubs, but it can only begin with a win this afternoon. The loser ends its season.
