Tennessee’s baseball team will continue to be a traveling road show.
The NCAA selection committee announced Tuesday that the Volunteers and Southern Mississippi will play this weekend’s best-of-three super regional at Pete Taylor Park in Hattiesburg. The Vols and Golden Eagles were each seeded second last weekend, with Tennessee winning the Clemson Regional and Southern Miss claiming the Auburn Regional.
The super regional opener in Hattiesburg will be Saturday afternoon at 3, with ESPNU televising the matchup. Information for Sunday’s game and Monday’s if-necessary contest will be released later.
Life away from Lindsey Nelson Stadium has mostly been unkind this season for Tennessee, which is reflected by an 8-14 record, but the Vols have won five of their last seven.
