With their backs against the wall for the 4th time this postseason, the Florida Gators defeated NC State 5-4 in a nail-biting game on Monday afternoon, knocking the Wolfpack out of the College World Series. Florida improved to 4-0 in elimination games this postseason and is now one of six college baseball teams still standing in Omaha.
Florida will play the loser of Texas A&M vs Kentucky on Tuesday at 7:00 PM EST.
“Just proud of our team’s resiliency today,” head coach Kevin O’Sullivan said postgame. “Obviously everybody knows when you get in the elimination brackets it’s about emotion and keeping your energy going and we did that today.
