The start time for Georgia Tech’s spring game April 23 has been set for 6 p.m., and the scrimmage will be broadcast on the ACC Network. Tech made the announcement Friday.

The earlier-than-normal start time for the Friday night game at Bobby Dodd Stadium was chosen to allow for the ACC Network broadcast. Tech’s baseball team, which will begin a three-game home series with Florida State on that day, has reset its first-pitch time from 6 to 7:30 p.m.

Attendance plans and safety protocols for the scrimmage will be finalized at a later date. The Yellow Jackets begin spring practice March 23.
