Birmingham-Southern College officially shuttered on Friday, but a little glimmer of hope remained on the diamond at the NCAA Division III World Series.

The team fell behind 7-4 after blowing a 4-0 lead. In the eighth inning, the team bounced back and scored three runs to tie the game. In the ninth, Birmingham-Southern’s Jackson Webster stepped up to the plate and crushed a two-run walk-off home run.

Webster kept the Panthers’ season alive.

"Baseball miracle, right?" Webster said after the game. "The storybook isn’t finished."

Birmingham-Southern made it to the final leg of the double-elimination tournament following two wins in the NCAA Super Regional over Denison University and victories against Transylvania University and Spalding University in the NCAA Regional.
