Albany, GA — The Albany State University softball team is back on the road this weekend, traveling to Columbia, SC, for a key three-game SIAC series against Allen University. The series opens with a doubleheader on Friday, April 18, beginning at 4:00 PM, and wraps up with a single game on Saturday, April 19 at 1:00 PM at the MLK Park.
