The weekend series: Tech continues season No. 122 of baseball at the school by taking part in the Campbell Invitational in Buies Creek, N.C. The Hokies will face both Rider and the host Camels in a pair of games this weekend.

Facing the Big South: The Camels are members of the Big South Conference and all-time, the Hokies are 138-56-1 for a .710 winning percentage. A majority of those wins have come against Radford (40), Liberty (38) and High Point (22). Tech was 4-1 against the Big South last year - losing only to Campbell (14-9) in extra innings in Blacksburg.

Facing the MAAC: The Broncs are from the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference and Tech has played just 12 games in its history against current members of the league. The Hokies all-time are 9-3 (.750) - facing four (Canisius, 1-0; Marist, 3-0; Niagara, 3-1; and Rider) of the 11 conference teams.

Perez is the nation’s Ironman: Entering the weekend, senior Alex Perez is just one of five players in Division I baseball to have started in every one of his team’s games since stepping foot on campus. Perez’ 173 consecutive starts is currently the longest streak in the nation and is the longest streak to start a career at Tech. Of his 173 starts at Tech, 120 have been at second base, 48 have been at shortstop and two have been on the mound.

Nice start to Hokie career: Redshirt-senior Erik Payne sat out last year due to the NCAA transfer rule - he previously played three seasons at South Carolina. Payne opened his Tech career in fine fashion as he helped the Hokies to a weekend series win at Mercer. After dropping the first game, Payne had three hits, scored three times and drove in four runs in the Saturday’s win, then blasted a three-run home run in Sunday’s victory to give him an ACC-high seven RBIs for the weekend.
