Rising Creighton Baseball

Creighton's NCAA college baseball players carry the pitchers mound into place at their practice field in Omaha, Neb., Tuesday, May 29, 2012. Creighton was one of the worst offensive teams in the nation while finishing last in the Missouri Valley Conference in the regular season. However the Bluejays made the most of their conference tournament, winning four in a row to make the NCAA tournament as one of two teams in the field with a losing record. They open regional play Friday at No. 2 national seed UCLA. (AP Photo/Nati Harnik)
