Adamson hasn't had much luck against White recently, but that could start to change on Tuesday. The Leopards will head out on the road to challenge the Longhorns at 5:00 p.m. Both come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Adamson took a eight-run defeat the last time they faced off against Molina, but this time they managed to keep it close and that made all the difference.
