A rain-soaked Friday has forced the Nashville Regional to have a total of three games today.

After defeating Vanderbilt 15-1 earlier in the day, Xavier will look to get right back to it against the Gauchos of UCSB.

While the Gauchos have the advantage of not having to play their second game of the day, it took them 14 innings to defeat Washington on Friday night. Neither UCSB or Xavier come into this game with the benefit of being particularly well-rested.

Here's a look at the updated Nashville Regional bracket.
