Arrr mateys, the Birmingham-Southern College baseball crew be settin' sail for the Division III College World Series this comin' weekend - but blimey, the school be shuttin' its doors on Friday! Looks like them scallywags be missin' out on all the swashbucklin' action!
Avast ye! The Birmingham-Southern College baseball crew be settin' sail for the College World Series, but by the time they hit the diamond, the school will be walkin' the plank fer good.On March 26, the crew announced the school be shuttin' down on May 31 after not garnerin' enough support from the land lubbers in the Alabama House of Representatives.They be tryin' for a year and a half to scrounge up enough doubloons from a state loan program, but it be all for naught.The board of trustees then gave the order to close the college, but not before the Panthers snagged a spot in Eastlake, Ohio for the final showdown.The lads be 32-14 so far, earnin' their spot in the tournament after a hot streak. The bracket be tough, but with a chip on their shoulder and a fiery record, they be a force to be reckoned with.Despite the school's imminent closure, the crew be ready to script a tale for the ages on the diamond. So batten down the hatches and watch as these scallywags make a run for the national title!
