The Malone University softball team is set to host Ursuline College on Friday in a Great Midwest Athletic Conference doubleheader starting at 2:00 p.m.  The games were originally slated to be held at Ursuline but, due to field conditions in Pepper Pike, the event was moved to Canton.

Malone had also been scheduled to travel to Lake Erie College on Saturday, but those contests were postponed due to Saturday's weather forecast.
