The final NCAA Tournament of the year for the Florida Gators is finally here, with the Gators' No. 1 overall seed baseball team entering non-SEC postseason play looking to make good on sky-high expectations and win the first national championship in school history.
Armed with a fearsome pitching staff led by SEC Pitcher of the Year Logan Shore and A.J. Puk, a potential No. 1 pick in the 2016 MLB Draft, a lineup packed with young, talented hitters like Buddy Reed and JJ Schwarz that should get a boost from the returning Peter Alonso, and a defense among the best in the sport, the Gators ran off a school-record 44 wins in the regular season before rallying from a loss to make the SEC Tournament final while getting nothing from the injured Alonso and just one mediocre inning from Shore.
