HATTIESBURG - Scott Berry is a big fan of his Southern Miss baseball team.
What head coach wouldn’t be when his squad is 25-8, which includes an 11-1 mark in Conference USA play, and showed up in several national Top 25 polls on Monday because of its success this season?
The Golden Eagles, ranked 18th in the country by Collegiate Baseball, 22nd by Perfect Game and 25th by Baseball America, are having fun. Berry hopes the good times continue when his club travels to face No. 11 Ole Miss at Oxford at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday.
“They’re fun in the locker room, fun at practice, fun in games even when things are not going well,” said Berry following his club’s dramatic come-from-behind rally to beat Middle Tennessee 12-11 on Sunday.
