No time for sentimental goodbyes as Bears host Shockers

Keith Guttin doesn’t expect any different feelings to be in the mix when he leads his Missouri State baseball team into Saturday’s 2 p.m. series-opener against Wichita State at Hammons Field.

Sure, there are differences on the horizon as the teams prepare for their 109th, 110th and 111th meetings.

This may be the last time they meet as Missouri Valley Conference opponents.

There’s a chance they will face each other at next month’s conference tournament in Springfield. But as far as regular-season meetings go as conference rivals, this is it.
