Kentucky baseball has had a historic season this year and it's showing no signs of stopping.
Today, the baseball cats head to Omaha, Nebraska, for the College World Series for the first time in program history.
Kentucky Proud Park was buzzing with pride and excitement as fans turned up to send them off.
I have good news.
We are going Omaha.
Not so great news is our.
Flight has been delayed.
So.
But on behalf of our players, our staff, we just wanted to tell you how thankful we are for you coming out today for what you've done for this team all season.
And we're going to do our best to bring home another trophy and make you proud.
It's a historic day for Kentucky baseball.
I wanted to be here and wish our cats good luck in Omaha and I hope we come away with a win.
It's amazing, I mean, to see what all coach has gone through and then came back and then he does this surreal day.
They've got to be proud.
And I just thank them for doing so much for the program.
Go, cats.
I love you, Lucas.
I hope that they know that they have a whole state behind them.
And I hope that they know that Kentucky travels.
And so obviously there's going to be a bunch of pink hats in the crowd.
And I hope that they know that a lot of us are rooting them on from home.
We are on our way to Omaha, too, but we don't leave until Thursday morning.
And it's our third trip to Omaha.
But this is the first time we've had a dog in the fight.
So we have a team to cheer for.
Where we're in all of our blue and I'm taking my bright pink hat.
The last time we were there, which was eight years ago.
We promised ourselves if Kentucky ever got there, we'd be there.
It's lightning in a bottle.
It just doesn't happen that often.
Enjoy every second.
Last week, Coach Mindy was named the 2024 Perfect Game National Coach of the Year, and it's the second time he's earned the award in his eight seasons as head coach.
The Cats play North Carolina State in Omaha on Saturday.
That game starts at 2 p.m. Eastern, 1 p.m. Central Time and the game is on ESPN.
The Cats next game after that would be on Monday.
We wish them the best of luck.
