South Carolina defeated Connecticut 5-1 in game one of the NCAA Columbia Super Regional on Saturday night at Carolina Stadium. The Gamecocks are now one win away from a return trip to Omaha to defend their 2010 NCAA College Baseball National Championship. Game two of the Columbia Super Regional begins tonight at 7 p.m. ET on Sunday on ESPNU.
South Carolina (49-14) has now won 10 consecutive NCAA tournament games and all seven it has played at Carolina Stadium. The Gamecocks are 34-4 at home this season, and they have yet to lose a series on their home turf in 2011.
All USC needs to do is get good pitching and good hitting going early in Game 2 and they will be Omaha bound. As we wrote in our “get to know” post, it is about taking care of business.
Here is a full recap of the game and below is the best sign of the night that says it all to UConn –
