The Gamecocks face the Cowboys in Founders Park this weekend with a trip to Omaha on the line
The Columbia Regional was a little more exciting than the Gamecocks hoped it would be coming in, but South Carolina ultimately emerged victorious after a very long weekend. After an ugly opening loss, the Gamecocks made a run through the losers bracket, winning 4 elimination games to advance to the Super Regionals. Carolina is just the 20th team since the current tournament format began in 1999 to win a Regional after losing their first game. To make things ever better, Oklahoma State won the Clemson Regional, giving the Gamecocks the opportunity to host the Cowboys this weekend instead of traveling to Clemson to face the Tigers.
