2000 - Nate Janowicz's two run triple broke a 2-2 tie with Florida in the bottom of the eighth and lifted Carolina to its 21st straight win to open the 2000 season. The Gamecocks had only managed to score on a pair of unearned runs before Janowicz tripled to score Tripp Kelly and Marcus McBeth. Drew Meyer then wrapped up the scoring with a single to score Janowicz. Kip Bouknight improved to 7-0 on the year, as he struck out 12 while giving up two runs on six hits. Scott Barber struck out all three Gators he faced in the ninth to pick up his fifth save.
