Nick Mingione's Kentucky Wildcats will square off against the Florida Gators in their third game of the College World Series in Omaha on Wednesday. The eliminator was originally planned to take place on Tuesday but was rescheduled for the next day due to impending inclement weather.
Nonetheless, Mingione and his team arrived at Charles Schwab Field for their warm-ups before the crunch contest. Here's a look at some of the pictures from the Wildcats entering the arena.
The Wildcats are making their first appearance at the College World Series in Kentucky's program history. Nick Mingione's team showed no signs of nervousness on the big stage when it took down NC State 5-3 in the opening game of the CWS.

Nick Mingione insists Kentucky will be up for the challenge against Florida in CWS eliminator
In the build-up to Kentucky's eliminator against Florida, coach Nick Mingione spoke highly of the Gators, but backed his team to step up its game for the big challenge.
"They took the hard path here, they were on the road, both for regionals and supers," Mingione said. "This league, every week teams can change, and this is a time that we're facing tomorrow that has been there, done that. They're well coached.
"So yeah, we'll definitely have our hands full and they are not the same team from when we played them a couple of weeks ago."
