PREVIEW: UCF Baseball Prepares for the BIG 12 Tournament

[ucf1]

8th seed UCF hopes to make some noise in Dallas

It’s that time of year in the College Baseball world. Conference tournaments around the nation, bidding for spots in regionals and hoping to keep their seasons going on as far into June as they can.

The Knights are among that number, having officially qualified for the Big 12 tournament during their second-to-last conference series against the Texas Longhorns.

The final week of the regular season included a rainout, a double-header, and a ferocious near comeback that had to be fended off. Let’s see how the initial schedule wrapped up for the Knights.

What a wild finish. UCF blew a three-run lead in the bottom of the ninth, but they were able to pull it out in 11-innings.

Knights catcher had a historic night (D. Neri), three home runs (Big 12 tournament record), including the game-winner in the top of the 11th.

Neri definetly was the hero. He also made the game's last out from a surprise bunt.

From what I can tell, Neri became the 7th Knight all-time with a three home run game. No UCF player has ever hit four home runs in a single-game.
