Now playing for a school that technically no longer exists, the Birmingham-Southern Panthers kept their hopes of winning a national championship alive on Saturday with a thrilling 9-7 comeback win over Randolph-Macon in the Division III World Series.

Now playing despite the school being closed for good, the Panthers kept their hopes of winning a national championship alive Saturday night with a thrilling 9-7 comeback victory over Randolph-Macon in the Division III World Series.

It was another memorable moment in a season full of them for Birmingham-Southern and a team bonded by adversity. Based on the wild scene outside their charter buses, it might be tough for anyone from Birmingham-Southern to get much sleep. But Randolph-Macon caught them in the seventh and then took the lead with three runs in the eighth, when the Panthers had two wild pitches and things began to unravel to the point where it looked like Birmingham Southern's season and program were both over."You can't help but have the feeling of -- is this how it's going to end?" he said.

Under Weisberg's steadying guidance, Birmingham-Southern's boys of summer have been playing freely for months, unburdened between the foul lines after learning in late March their school was closing.
