Heyward has taken the major leagues by storm, hitting .251 with 11 homers and 45 RBI in 71 games this season that led him to gain a starting spot in this year's All-Star Game in Anaheim. However, due to the injury, he was replaced on the roster.

The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country.
