Senior righthander JT Jakubik (0-1, 2.25 ERA) will make his second-straight midweek start for the Huskies (8-10), after shutting out Stephen F. Austin on two hits with three strikeouts in 5.0 innings last week.

Senior centerfielder Zane Otten is hitting .410 with three doubles, a triple, five RBIs, 10 runs and is 5-for-7 on stolen base attempts for HBU. Junior leftfielder Spencer Halloran is hitting .343 with four doubles, four triples, two home runs, 15 RBIs and 17 runs, while junior first baseman/catcher Jake Pulcheon is hitting .315 with four doubles, nine RBIs and 11 runs.

UTSA (9-9) will likely send to the mound righthander Karan Patel (1-1, 5.62 ERA), who will be making his fifth start of the year.
