With a 4-1 start that has included a pair of impressive blowout wins and a pair of walk-offs in extra innings against good competition, the Coastal Carolina baseball team is showing what coach Gary Gilmore suspected through the offseason and three full weeks of practices – this team might be capable of some big things this season.
Coastal has opened 2018 with a 17-2 win over Virginia Tech, 13-0 blowout of rival College of Charleston on the road Wednesday, and walk-offs in the 10th inning against both Kansas State and an Oklahoma team ranked in the top 20 in the nation in Perfect Game’s preseason top 25 rankings.
