The piece was so moving to Mark Kingston, the South Carolina baseball coach brought the whole family in to watch it – five times.
The Kingston era in Columbia will begin at 4 p.m. Friday when the Gamecocks host VMI at Founders Park. Part of Kingston’s first game week included a Wednesday visit from Chris Singleton.
Singleton’s mother, Sharonda Coleman-Singleton, was one of the nine victims in the tragic Charleston church shooting on June 17, 2015. A day later, Singleton, then an outfielder for Charleston Southern, delivered a touching "love is stronger than hate” speech on CSU’s diamond.
