Crimson Tide Win Sweet 16
Saturday, May 8th , 2021
Jack Fairchild said he expected the Sweet 16 to be "a battle from start to finish."
In the end, it was nothing more than a minor skirmish, as the Alabama Crimson Tide encountered little resistance in sweeping the Ole Miss Rebels, to advance to the Elite 8.
"It may have been a sweep, but it still was a tough series," said Fairchild.
Alabama won the final game by a 7-3 count and were led in the series by Fairchild, who was named MVP. On the series, he hit .750 with 1 home runs. He also drove in 2 RBI and scored 2 runs.
The Alabama Crimson Tide don't know who they will face in the next round. They will play the winner of the Kansas Jayhawks - Kansas State Wildcats series. That series is tied at 1 game each. The Elite 8 schedule will be announced after the Sweet 16 finishes.
