Reflections on a Season of College Baseball
In 2025, I decided to road trip the United States, visiting national parks and watching a lot of sports. It was a dream trip, one I spent two years planning. As I came back to Alabama in September and reflected on those eight months, I couldn't stop coming back to one thing: sports, and how special they are. Through the end of the year, I couldn't shake that thought from my head, and thus, a bucket list of sorts was born. Seeing every stadium or every sport in the United Stat


"How 'bout Them Trojans?" Troy Advances to Omaha For First Time
As we went into Game 2 of the Troy Super Regional, Troy was focused on one thing: history. With a new attendance record of 7,033 people in Riddle-Pace and in Doubles Alley behind them, all that stood in their way was Little Rock, desperate to force a Game 3. Troy would quickly take the lead in the first and not look back, ultimately taking a 7-2 win and advancing to Omaha for the first time in program history. For the second game in a row, the Troy scoring would first come of


Troy Takes Game One in Super Regional
Super Regional weekend is special, but for the two teams in the Troy Super, it was a little bit more special. Trojans vs Trojans and both teams' first trip to Super Regionals, and fans at Riddle-Pace Field in Troy, AL were in for a treat. With additional seating added both in and out of the stadium, the "biggest event in the history of Troy" as Troy's mayor put it was sure to bring some fireworks. Troy would meet the moment, ultimately defeating Little Rock 12-2. Little Rock


Who Are You? The Journey 16 Teams Took to Super Regionals
With there being so many schools in the Super Regionals in 2026 who aren't traditional in the tournament, here's a high level view of the sixteen teams and their road to Super Regionals Morgantown Super Regional: West Virginia vs. Cal Poly West Virginia The Mountaineers came into the Field of 64 and the number 16 seed after becoming the Big 12 Tournament runner-ups behind Kansas.

Jax State Fends Off Virginia to Advance to Regional Final
As Virginia and Jax State fans made their way into Pete Taylor Park on Sunday, both groups were hoping to help will their team into the Regional final against Little Rock. Pitching would be the story line everyone was watching as Virginia's Max Stammel and Jax State's Steven Cash would hope to do what was needed to punch their ticket. Ultimately, the Gamecocks would come out on top despite a late Virginia surge to take the win 7-6. Jax State Freshman Sam Richardson would open


4-Seed Little Rock One Win From Supers After Victory Over Jax State
As the Hattiesburg Regional moved to the 1-0 game, all eyes were on 3-seed Jax State and 4-Seed Little Rock to see who would be one win away from a Super Regional bid. Little Rock came out to an early lead and never looked back, ultimately defeating Jax State 8-6 and forcing them into a rematch with 2-seeded Virginia. Little Rock would put up three runs in the top of the first off of singles by Blake Simpson and Nico Baumbach, as well as a groundout by Ty Rhoades. Nolan Freun


Virginia Eliminates Host Southern Miss 15-11 in Extra Innings
After a day of upsets, 1-seed Southern MIss and 2-seed Virginia would come out trying to avoid elimination in Hattesburg.

Jax State Offense Drives Gamecocks to Win Over Virginia
On a day full of upsets, Game 2 of the Hattiesburg Regional promised a good game, but not necessarily an upset. Jacksonville State entered the game as the three seed, something most folks didn't expect from the committee. Jax State's offense came out swinging, and they jumped out to an early lead before Virginia would battle back. Ultimately, they would come up short as Jax State took the 15-7 victory. Cooper Blauser got the scoring started for Jacksonville State with a 397 f


Little Rock Plays Upset in Game 1 of Hattiesburg Regional
There's just something about Regionals; the fans are louder, the concessions are better, and there's a knowledge in the air that any team of any seed can go on a tear and advance to Super Regionals play. 4-seed Little Rock hoped to prove just that as they opened play against host Southern Miss in the Hattiesburg Regional at Pete Taylor Park. Both teams' pitching was the story of the first few innings, but eventually the offenses would take over as Little Rock would play upset


Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns vs Southern Miss Golden Eagles - Sun Belt Conference Tournament Finals
As we moved into the Sun Belt Conference Tournament, the Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns and the Southern Miss Golden Eagles came in with one goal: bragging rights. Both of these teams had already played themselves into the NCAA Tournament, and so this game became less about post-season play and more about bragging rights. As Louisiana entered their seventh game in six days, the lack of fresh arms would ultimately lead to an 11-7 loss for the Cajuns despite a five run ninth. The Sout


Georgia State Panthers vs. Southern Miss Golden Eagles - Sun Belt Conference Tournament Game 5
Georgia State took on the top seeded Southern Miss Eagles in game five of the Sun Belt Conference Tournament. Due to weather delays and the general running behind that happens in conference tournaments, this turned into the prime time game and fans that tuned in were in for a treat. Southern Miss started off hot, with Matthew Russo driving in two runs on a single through the left side of the infield in the first. The first inning also saw the ejection of Georgia State’s head


Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns vs Coastal Carolina Chanticleers - Sun Belt Conference Tournament Game 4
Sometimes games go exactly how you expect. Other times, you see games like what happened in Game 4 of the Sun Belt Conference Tournament, as late inning runs almost pushed Coastal Carolina into the win column. Louisiana started off the first inning hot, scoring their first run off a Drew Markle sac fly. The hot bats continued for the Cajuns in the third, with a five-run inning off the bats of Markle, Colt Brown, and Steven Spalitta. Brown also brought in a run in the top of t


Texas State Bobcats vs. App State Mountaineers - Sun Belt Conference Tournament Game 3
It was an early start for Texas State and App State as they started game 3 of the Sun Belt Conference tournament at 9am CT. Both teams were able to hit their stride early, and while it wasn't a 10+ run day for either team like we saw day 1, the bats stayed hot as Texas State took the 6-5 win over App State. For the Mountaineers, Colton Denton and Kameron Miller pushed runs across in the first third of the game; Denton on a ground out with the bases loaded, and Miller on a dou


Georgia State Panthers vs. Old Dominion Monarchs - Sun Belt Conference Tournament Game 2
When you watch a lot of baseball, especially this late in the season, the pace of a game becomes routine. There are highlight plays and hits, sure, but you know vaguely what to expect when you come to the park. Game two in the Sun Belt Conference Tournament was anything but, as Georgia State and Old Dominion had to stop play for a lengthy delay not for weather or injury, but because first base had come loose and couldn't get popped into place. At least thirty minutes and a ne


Marshall Thundering Herd vs. Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns - Sun Belt Conference Tournament Game 1
There is nothing like conference tournament season, especially for schools that have everything to gain and nothing to lose. On the first day of Sun Belt Conference Tournament action in Montgomery, AL the Marshall Thundering Herd and Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns found themselves in that position. As they entered DABOS Park they both had one task ahead of them: win or go home. With a single elimination win needed in order to get to double elimination play, Marshall and Louisiana bo
