Southern Miss eyes Omaha in 2023 season

BY 4TH STREET SPORTS STAFF

Baseball in Hattiesburg has quickly become the most anticipated Southern Miss sporting season every year. The hype and optimism for baseball last season was at an all-time high, and the team did not disappoint. Ranked as high as No. 4 in the country, the Golden Eagles won their first NCAA Regional since 2009. They became one of the few teams ever to host a Conference tournament, an NCAA Regional, and an NCAA Super Regional.

The hype for baseball is even higher this season. With the roster returning most of its key stars and adding several talented transfers, the diamond at Pete Taylor Park is set for success. The focus is on opening day on February 17, but the team, the fans, and the coaches can’t help but eye a potential trip to Omaha, Nebraska in June.
