I forget the game but one of LSU’s opponents was in the third base dugout and some tiger fan said something about their coach. The coach cried like a baby and got the officials to escort the tiger fan out of the regional game.

That was *probably* USC when they came back for more in 1994 after we punked them in 1990. I recall the games with them being very chippy and the crowd being quite hostile towards the Trojans. For some reason Jacques Jones comes into my mind as being a Trojan who was public enemy #1 because he was kinda cocky. We beat them 12-10 on Sunday to win the regional.

Those frickers sure did enjoy hitting at the Box. In 1990 they had games where they scored 26 and 23 runs and in 1994 they put up a 25 and a 19.


1994 may have been the dawn of Gorilla Ball everywhere. Some scores in that regional:

USC 25, UNCG 9
USC 19, UNCG 3
UNCG 22, Southeastern 12
LSU 12, USC 10
