On Sunday, the Rebels were able to withstand a late-inning rally for the second straight game to claim a 6-5 victory. (February 21, 2011, Page 6)

Crouse turns successful offseason into Friday night role for Rebels
There’s been plenty of questions surrounding the Ole Miss baseball team heading into today’s season opener against Wright State.
What hasn’t been in question? Who is taking the place of top draft pick Drew Pomeranz as the Friday night starter.

What pressure? Newalu confident heading into season as Rebs’ SS
Ole Miss baseball coach Mike Bianco admitted on Monday that sometimes defense — well, reliable defense — can be taken for granted at times.
That was never more evident than in 2008, when the Rebels transitioned from Zack Cozart at shortstop to a combination of Sean Stuyverson, Tim Ferguson and Evan Button and the trio committed 27 errors.
