The Arizona Wildcats stayed up all night to beat Saint Francis (Pa.) in Friday's NCAA Regional opener at Hillenbrand Stadium.

They're back at it this afternoon, taking on North Dakota State. First pitch is scheduled for 2 p.m. The game will not be shown on television, but can be streamed on WatchESPN.com  . 

Arizona's second regional game is key. Win, and the team advances to Sunday's regional final, where it would have to win just one of two games. A loss puts the Wildcats in the loser's bracket, where they'd have to win three consecutive games — one at 7 p.m. tonight and two tomorrow — to move on to next week's Super Regionals.
