MILWAUKEE - The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee baseball team has had more changes made to the 2009 schedule, as the team will now play on different dates and will add a make-up game this weekend when it travels to play Cleveland State University.

Head coach Scott Doffek announced this morning that the team will now play a doubleheader on both Saturday and Sunday against the Vikings, with action getting underway at 11 a.m. CST both days.

UWM was originally scheduled to play once Friday and twice Saturday, but the schedule was changed to accommodate the better weather forecast and the fourth game of the series, which is a make-up game from last weekend between the two teams. The Panthers will be the home team in the second game of Sunday's twinbill.

Milwaukee is right in the thick of the regular season championship race, sitting in second at 8-4 in league games, tied with first-place UIC in the loss column (11-4). The Vikings are currently 6-8 in league games and in sixth place.
