Fresh off Liberty baseball’s run in the Columbia regionals, we got to wondering what the best team achievement in the history of Liberty University Athletics is.

2005 Women’s Basketball Sweet 16 run
Riding the back of Katie Feenstra, the Liberty Lady Flames made an improbable run to the Sweet 16. Liberty was a #13 seed and knocked off #4 Penn State 78-70, and #5 DePaul 88-79. Feenstra averaged 25.5 points and 12 rebounds in the two victories. After the DePaul victory, Feenstra coined the phrase “Why not Liberty?” when asked why she chose to attend Liberty.

The two wins in the 2005 NCAA Tournament, still stand as the only two NCAA Tournament wins in program history.

2012 Men’s Golf #10 finish nationally
Just a year ago, Liberty’s men’s golf team finished 10th in the country at the 2012 Men’s Golf National Championship. This came on the heels of the Flames winning the 2012 NCAA Greensboro Regional as the 6 seed. Liberty was paced by Chase Marinell’s +4 finish in the championship round and -3 finish by Robert Karlsson in the regional.


2013 Baseball Regional Final Appearance
Liberty baseball just concluded a memorable run all the way to the first regional final in the history of the program. Liberty defeated ACC power Clemson twice to advance to the regional final to take on #1 South Carolina. When the Gamecocks eliminated the Flames, Liberty was one of just 21 teams remaining in the Division I tournament. The Flames were just 4 wins away from the College World Series in Omaha.
