Kentucky Wesleyan baseball is going dancing for the first time since 2017.
The Panthers did it in dramatic fashion. KDub trailed by 3 of more runs 4 separate times on their way to the G-MAC title. Head coach Todd Lillpop reflects on the effort:

Great to be a part of the first night game at Gallatin Miracle Park. Awesome to see our players with their players. Thank you for inviting us! #GoPioneers@VSCCPioneers
I am excited to announce that I will be continuing my athletic and academic career at Lipscomb University. I want to thank @CoachMcGuire26 for guiding me through this process. I also want to thank my parents for the support they have given me. #hornsup
