VESTAL, N.Y. - Binghamton baseball heads into SEC territory when the Bearcats (3-6) travel to Columbia, Mo. to face Missouri (6-6) in a four-game weekend set. The teams meet at 6 p.m. Friday, continue with a doubleheader Saturday (2 p.m.) and then play the finale at 2 p.m. Sunday at Taylor Stadium.
