MADISON, N.J. (December 18, 2018) - The FDU-Florham baseball team and first-year Head Coach Jamie Quinn released the 2019 schedule Tuesday afternoon.

Quinn and the Devils face a stiff test in the season-opener, taking on perennial nationally-ranked Kean University on February 24. After a road game against Cairn on March 5, FDU opens its home slate a day later with a game against in-state rival Stockton.

The Devils head south for Spring Break, playing eight games in six days in Fort Myers, Florida at the Gene Cusic Classic. The schedule sees doubleheaders against Bluffton (March 9), Newbury (March 11) and Finlandia (March 13). After returning, FDU opens conference play with a home double-dip against Delaware Valley on March 17.

Misericordia, who advanced to World Series last season, visits on March 23 before FDU heads west to take on Centenary in non-conference play on March 27. The first road doubleheader of the season is on March 30 when the Devils take on King's, before returning to campus to battle John Jay April 3.

Two non-conference mid-week games highlight the middle of April before DeSales ventures to Madison for a Saturday twinbill on April 13. The Battle of Madison Ave. will be held at FDU this year, as the Devils and Rangers square off on April 17. The final three-game series against Manhattanville is on April 18-19, as the Valiants depart the Middle Atlantic Conference Freedom for the Skyline Conference after this season.

The Devils conclude the non-conference portion of their campaign heading to Ramapo on April 23 and hosting Mount Saint Vincent on April 24. FDU ends the regular season with a Friday afternoon tilt against Wilkes on April 26 before heading there for the final doubleheader of the year the next day.

The top four teams in the MAC Freedom will compete for the MAC Freedom Championship, with the winner earning the conference's bid to the NCAA Tournament. The Devils return one All-MAC Freedom selection from last season in sophomore AJ Yurista.
