IU’s scheduled matchup with Evansville on Tuesday night was canceled due to unfavorable weather, IU Athletics announced Tuesday afternoon. The game was supposed to take place in Evansville, Indiana, at Charles H. Braun Stadium.
The Hoosiers entered the week after losing two of three games to Samford during the weekend, which dropped their record to 4-6-1 for the 2017 season.
Though Evansville has a 3-8 record this season, the Purple Aces regularly provide a challenge. They won two of the last three games between the schools since 2015 and led the Hoosiers 15-0 at Bart Kaufman Field in a 2016 matchup that had to be canceled before it could become an official game after five innings.
IU lost its only other mid-week matchup this season against Cincinnati on the road, 6-1. Up next for IU are its first home games of the season: Middle Tennessee will come to Bloomington for three games beginning Friday.
