The new-look NCAA baseball super regional field

[NewsCopy]

None of these names we've become accustomed to in recent years advanced past the round of 64. Instead we have Anteaters, Waves, Horned Frogs and Ragin' Cajuns. Tell me, what on earth is a Terrapin? This list of teams you don't recognize is another ...

The rest of the story ...

One things is for sure. We come into the Supers the Number 1 teams in the nation and with teams like CofC and Kennesaw State in the field, we are no longer the "cinderella" team that we always get tagged with. This is how persception changes!

In baseball they are, but yes I get your point.

So the breakdown of our regional states..."The Rebels do a little bit of everything, hitting .304 as a team, flashing some power with 39 home runs and stealing 90 bases."

Somehow they leave out the part that UL hits .319 as a team, flashes LOTS of power with 66 home runs, and has stolen 107 bases.

Oh wait, we don't play in "the mighty SEC" so our numbers are fake. Never mind.

It's a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. Or is that a Pirtle?
