UConn baseball holds a slight lead for the Big East regular-season crown

The final weekend of the regular season is here. At the conclusion of play on Saturday, the four-team field for the Big East Tournament at Prasco Park in Mason, Ohio will be decided.

St. John’s and Butler have each been eliminated, while Villanova, two-and-a-half games behind current 4-seed Creighton, will be eliminated with a Bluejays win or a loss this weekend.

UConn and Xavier have each clinched a spot in the tournament with the Huskies currently a half-game ahead of the Musketeers. These two teams are competing for the league’s regular season title.
