Brian King, a junior infielder for the Eagles, will post a daily blog and photos from behind the scenes of the 2013 National Championship Opening Round in Hattiesburg, Miss.

Tuesday, May 7

Hey guys,

The Central Methodist baseball team departed from Fayette this evening around 7:00 P.M. Before departing, a team photo was taken out in front of the charter bus. Each one of us are more than excited to get this 11 hour drive out of the way and arrive in Hattiesburg, Miss. To pass the time, we have currently watched two movies: Lincoln, and Django. Both movies have helped make this trip fly by a little more smoothly, but we still have a long way to go. We are about four hours into the trip at this point and just made a stop in Auzora, Mo., to stretch the legs and stock up on some snacks. Some of the guys also ordered food from the Subway attached to the gas station. Back to the road we go!

Until next time,

Brian
