Product Description
In 2010 and 2011, the University of South Carolina Gamecocks baseball team won back-to-back national championships, an accomplishment won by only six other teams in the 68-year College World Series. In 2012, a few veteran players returned to try for a three-peat ~ a feat completed once only by Southern California in 1972. The rest of the new Gamecocks squad was made up of fresh men hardly expected to have a winning season let alone win a college world series. Still, the 2012 season turned magical! Wet-behind-the-ears freshmen coalesced into a winning team led by returning ace Michael Roth and bullpen fireman Matt Price, who were playing their final season with the Gamecocks. A starry night at Carolina Stadium saw Roth's masterful final performance as a Gamecock propel the reborn team into the last available berth at Omaha and a chance at the three-peat. What happened that night drew high praise from the opposing coach: "... as a baseball fan and somebody that really loves the game — Roth's performance was 'Poetic Justice.'" The rest of this spell-binding baseball story -- written by the internationally published author who co-wrote CAROLINA BASEBALL: PRESSURE MAKES DIAMONDS and its eBook edition PRESSURE MAKES DIAMONDS A TIMELESS TALE OF AMERICA'S GREATEST PASTIME -- reveals an insider's view of a miraculous season of wins that excited Gamecock Nation fans and will thrill everyone who loves baseball, young or old!
