I’ve been slack on updates, because I’m currently in Key West, but Carolina is currently nicely positioned. Today is day 3 of 3 of the tournament before the first cut. The top 15 see tomorrow. Carolina is currently 6th at +5. They’ve been very good since the opening round +9. After tomorrow, the top 8 advance to match play.

Stanford is currently dominating the field at -23. That won’t matter come match play.

Thank you, from a GRATEFUL nation!!!

This one feels like an early trap to me, especially if you start 2-0 and are looking ahead to the rough stretch in October.

This team melts down every time. The last two innings are so predictable. . Bullpen sucks.

I spoke to a few sources around the team and in his area who told me that Cedric Cisse has been a part of the team. He’s the younger brother of Brandon Cisse.

Cedric held offers from NC State, Navy, Murray State, Charleston Southern, and South Carolina State. While he wasn’t ranked by Rivals, he was considered a three-star prospect by other outlets in the industry a pretty solid preferred walk-on pickup.

South Carolina was the first program to offer Collins, who now attends Christ School in Asheville, N.C.
