What To Know About The Spartans

USC Upstate enters its first meeting with the Longhorns with a 7-7 record and just one series victory under its belt so far this season. The Spartans have played two Southeastern Conference opponents this season, losing to Georgia and South Carolina in mid-week games.

While the Spartans' starting pitching rotation leaves a lot to be desired, with all three starters having an ERA above six, USC Upstate freshman pitcher Jacob Kirby has been an elite arm out of the bullpen.

Kirby, the back-to-back Big South reliever of the week, has pitched in 12 innings this season, allowing just seven runs and zero earned runs.

Despite their record, the Spartans have been hitting well through the first three weeks of the season. Five players have batting averages above .300 — sophomore catcher Tyler Lang paces them with an impressive .441 average.

Lang enters the series against the Longhorns riding a three-hit streak, two of them being multi-hit performances. Against Georgia Southern and South Carolina combined for 5-10 at the plate with one double and a two-run homer.
