Under the direction of Head Coach Mike Bianco, Ole Miss Rebels hope to make it to the
College World Series
in 2020. Few fans will forget the sad ending to the 2019 season when the
University of Arkansas
beat the team 14 to 1 in the
Super Regional
, which stopped them from advancing to Omaha If the team had been successful, it would have been the first time in five years that they had made the College World Series. The team is ready to experience even more successes, like when they beat
Florida
and
Texas A&M
in 2019. In 2019, the team drafted several players into
Major League Baseball
, including Grae Kessinger who went to the
Houston Astros
, Will Ethridge who went to the
Colorado Rockies
, Thomas Dillard who went to the
Milwaukee Brewers
, Cooper Johnson who went to the
Detroit Tigers
and Zach Phillips who went to the
Kansas City Royals
