The cross-town rivalry between Florida International University and Florida Atlantic University reached its peak last month when the two teams clashed in the Conference USA Championship.
The Florida baseball duel frequently sprung spectators from their seats at MGM Park in Biloxi, Mississippi, especially in the sixth inning when FAU got a three-run double and a three-run home run.
As a result, the Owls (34-20-1) ended the Panthers’ season with a 8-4 victory in the double-elimination tournament game.
Florida Atlantic advanced to the third round of the tournament where the Owls lost to Rice.
