LUBBOCK, Texas (October 15, 2025) \u2013 The schedule and rosters for the Lubbock Christian University fall intrasquad Ducks & Skunks series have been finalized, with game one of the series slated to start at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 21 at the Liberty Cooper baseball field. \u00a0
\n\u00a0
\nThe Chaps are forced to play away from their usual home as renovations are still underway at Hays Field.<\/a>
\n\u00a0
\nGame two will be played at 11 a.m. on Oct. 25 and the series will conclude on Oct. 26 at 2 p.m. Fans are welcome and encouraged to attend the games, which will be free of charge.
\n\u00a0
\nThis will be the 55th edition of Ducks & Skunks, which dates back to 1970 when then-LCC (Lubbock Christian College) head coach Larry Hays devised the series to celebrate the end of fall practices. The name Ducks & Skunks dates back to 1962, however, when LCC’s first baseball team needed uniforms and the Post Cereal Mill generously donated some left-over uniforms with a Skunk on the front them.
\n\u00a0
\nThe Chaparral roster has been split in half for the series, with pitching coach Jermaine Van Buren<\/a> leading the Red Skunks and hitting coach Brandon Walker<\/a> leading the Blue Ducks. The coaching staff will use the series to evaluate players heading into the winter offseason.
\n\u00a0
\nLubbock Christian finished the 2025 season 34-23 overall, finishing fourth in the Lone Star Conference standings with a 30-18 league record. The Chaps reached the NCAA Tournament for the third consecutive season and sixth time in program history.<\/p>\n
