South Carolina baseball’s Cole Messina and Blake Jackson talk about Raleigh Regional in NCAA Tournament
The red and white sea of fans were loud at Doak Field in Raleigh, North Carolina. The sound of “WOLF-PACK” chants echoed.
Per ESPN, 67% of host teams advance to the NCAA super regionals, and 82% of teams who go 2-0 win the region. NC State’s win 6-4 over South Carolina baseball on Saturday put the Wolfpack (35-20) in great position to confirm those odds.
The Gamecocks (37-24) now go to the elimination bracket to face James Madison again on Sunday in the NCAA Raleigh Regional. In order to win the regional, South Carolina has to beat JMU on Sunday, then beat NC State on Sunday night, then again on Monday.

NC State baseball sharp against South Carolina
In the sixth, South Carolina was down 4-2 with runners on first and second. Kennedy Jones’ hit had hope but shortstop Brandon Butterworth crushed that dream. Butterworth snagged it, turned and threw to tag Blake Jackson out, for the timely, well-executed double play.
Three pitchers for the Wolfpack struck out nine, allowed four runs and seven hits. NC State had eight hits, six runs and three home runs.
South Carolina baseball starts slow again in NCAA Regional
Through six innings, the Gamecocks only logged two runs, both of which were solo home runs. South Carolina failed to string together consistent offense for the second game in a row. Against JMU on Friday, the Gamecocks only scored once before tying things in the fifth.
South Carolina was 0-for-3 with runners on base by the sixth inning on Saturday. The slow start ultimately plagued the tone of the game, as the Gamecocks weren’t able to climb back into winning as they did Friday.
DETAILS ON PETRY: South Carolina star Ethan Petry out with hairline fracture vs NC State in NCAA regional
Sophomore first baseman and the Gamecocks’ second-best hitter Ethan Petry did not play on Saturday. Coach Mark Kingston said during the game he has a hairline fracture in his left hand.
Cole Messina filled in at first base but Petry’s presence at bat was clearly missed. Petry was originally in the starting lineup but after warmups, was taken out.
Messina, the hero from Friday against JMU, had just one hit against NC State.

Clyburn says record speaks for itself, warns GOP to ‘be very careful what you pray for’
CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCIV) — Rep. Jim Clyburn appeared on CNN’s State of the Union Sunday morning and said he remains confident he could win another term in a redistricted South Carolina.
Host Jake Tapper asked Rep. Clyburn what it would mean for South Carolina voters if his seat, which represents the state’s sixth congressional district, was eliminated. The congressman said voters will have the last word and he will run irrespective of the new makeup of his district.
“I don’t know why people think I could not get re-elected if they redistrict South Carolina,” he said before pointing out his district as currently drawn contains about 45% Black voters. “I have no idea what the demo will be after the legislature finishes [redistricting], but whatever that number is I will be running on a record and a promise – my record, and America’s promise.”
Clyburn, as one of the more prominent Democratic voices in American politics in the South over the past several decades, said his pitch to voters won’t change even if his new district is drawn to house more Republicans.
“I think that it is very clear to most people in America that voters, most voters, believe in fundamental fairness, most voters believe in competence, and most voters can tell the difference between a true public servant and someone who may be in it for the next social hit,” he said.

The 17-term representative also said he believes Republicans’ redistricting plan could backfire.
“Be very careful what you pray for, because what I do believe is that when they finish with the redistricting, there will be the possibilities of at least three Democrats getting elected here in South Carolina to the United States Congress,” he said.
If re-elected, Clyburn would begin his 18th term in Congress in 2027. He has served as South Carolina’s representative for its Sixth Congressional District, which through multiple gerrymanders spanning decades has comprised of different parts of the Pee Dee, Midlands, and Lowcountry in some capacity, since 1993.
State lawmakers have pushed the redistricting issue legislatively in the last week in the wake of the US Supreme Court’s decision in Louisiana v. Callais. A special session on redistricting passed on Thursday in the State House, and more House legislation to push back congressional primaries to August advanced to the House Judiciary Committee Friday. The issue is expected to be taken back up in Columbia this week.
