Southern Miss baseball score vs. Tennessee: Live updates from NCAA Tournament super regional

Southern Miss baseball will be out to score a vital opening victory when it hosts Tennessee on Sunday to conclude the first game of an NCAA Tournament super regional series at Pete Taylor Park.

The Golden Eagles held a 4-0 lead in the fifth inning when the opener of the best-of-three set was suspended on Saturday.

USM (45-18) is hosting a super regional for the second season in a row after it won four consecutive elimination games in the Auburn Regional.

The Golden Eagles have not been to the College World Series since 2009, their final season under coach Corky Palmer. Now in his last year at the helm, Scott Berry is two wins from bringing Southern Miss back to Omaha.

Standing in his way is a Tennessee (41-19) program playing in a super regional for the third campaign in a row. The Volunteers blitzed through the Clemson Regional to get here, wrapping it up in three games.
