For the third time in school history, the No. 9 seed Texas Longhorns are playing a super regional on the road, traveling to North Carolina to face the No. 8 seed East Carolina Pirates in the Greenville Super Regional at sold-out Clark-LeClair Stadium starting on Friday.
Texas has won both of their previous road super regionals, defeating Ole Miss in three games on the way to the 2005 national championship and sweeping Florida State in 2003. East Carolina has never hosted a super regional on its campus. Friday’s game will mark the first meeting between the two schools.
