This matchup marks a significant moment for LSU, venturing away from their home turf at Alex Box Stadium. The Tigers, with a storied history in college baseball, have their sights set on making a statement in the NCAA Tournament once again.
Wofford, making its second regional appearance, is not to be underestimated.
