Heading into its super regional matchup with West Virginia, LSU baseball is thankful to still be alive in the 2025 NCAA Tournament.
The Tigers were nearly eliminated by Little Rock and infielder Daniel Dickinson acknowledges the team may have overlooked the sub .500 Trojans who won the Ohio Valley Conference Tournament championship.
“Coming from a mid-major school, I kind of knew that they would be ready to fight,” Dickinson said. “I didn’t really understand how much they were going to fight like they did.”
LSU came away with a shutout win in the Baton Rouge Regional opener but Little Rock evened the score with a Sunday victory to force a championship game. The Trojans took an early lead inside Alex Box Stadium, forcing the Tigers to complete a comeback victory.
With a new perspective and a trip to Omaha on the line, Dickinson and his teammates know to putt heir best foot forward to keep the 2025 season going.
“As we learned last weekend, every team is ready to play and they want to win,” Dickinson said. “We can’t over look that and we know West Virginia is going to come ready to play.”
