OMAHA, Neb. — Brady Singer’s performance may have stolen the headlines in Florida’s Game 1 win over LSU in the College World Series Finals, but the Gators had a secret weapon to their success Monday night as well.
Its name: Rally Cup
In what quickly became a hit on social media, the Rally Cup provided a mid-game spark for Florida.
Rally cap? No, rally CUP.
