Ole Miss falls 8-7 to UCLA in hard-fought 11-inning NCAA Super Regional Opener

On a perfect evening in sunny Los Angeles, CA, the #12 Ole Miss Rebels continued their historic run by squaring off against #5 UCLA in NCAA Tournament Super Regional play on Thursday.

Only encountering one another twice in program history, the first in 2000 and most recently a 14-inning marathon in 2005, both teams entered coming off of sweeps in their respective NCAA Regionals last weekend and hitting above a .320 clip.

Two hours of warmups filled with dancing and singing cultivated and the pinstripe-clad Rebels locked in, but weren’t able to get anything going at the plate in the top half.
