With the news that Taylor Braley would be undergoing knee surgery that would effectively end his season, some thought third base would be a spot of trouble for Southern Miss.

“He hasn’t really seen much action at night here,” Berry said. “They’re are a couple of plays he’ll learn from, but he’s a good ballplayer. He’ll contribute.”
A junior standout at Pearl River Community College, Tracy Hadley came to Southern Miss expecting to put his athleticism on center stage immediately.
