The Broom Is Beginning to Make Itself at Home


Another week, another sweep, as the Rebels defeated Tennessee in a three game series this weekend in Oxford. With the sweep over the Vols the Rebels move to 30-15 and 13-8 on the season. The Rebels are now in sole possession of second place in the west and tied for second overall in the SEC.

A ten game win streak for the Rebels has been led by some extrodinary hitting at the plate. This continued against Tennessee as the Rebels defeated the Vols 13-5, 21-13, 5-3. It was once again some spectacular baseball in Oxford.

The question is can the Rebels continue to be this hot. They will go on the road this weekend to Kentucky to take on the No. 15 ranked Wildcats. It should be an interesting weekend in Lexington. Before the Rebels leave for Lexington they will host Nicholls State on Tuesday.
