See photos from heart-wrenching Southern Miss, LSU thriller in Hattiesburg

Southern Miss fell victim to another improbable LSU rally and dropped a heartbreaking thriller in Hattiesburg on Saturday.

The Golden Eagles watched their ninth inning lead vanish in front of a rowdy, 5,211-person crowd at Pete Taylor Park.

LSU used two home runs to force extra innings and walked it off in the bottom of the 10th to capture a 7-6 victory.

Here are photos from the NCAA regional in Hattiesburg. Southern Miss plays Kennesaw State on Sunday and could face LSU again on Monday night if they win.
