Other than women's track, USC (the one on the East Coast) had never won a NCAA championship in any sport, and obviously not a single men's championship. So it was very nice to see the Gamecocks pull off the victory over UCLA (which has won a LOT of college championships) in the NCAA Division 1 baseball championship. And according to some of the statistics, it was also very unexpected; USC's team batting average was a measly .300, (173rd out of 292 NCAA Div. 1 teams), but they fielded well and pitched well, and that's what won.
