Story by Brian Hand from Spurs & Feathers
David Marchbanks is not shy about what makes playing baseball at the University of South Carolina so special.
“Because you’re a family,” Marchbanks mused. “Obviously, all of the guys we played with – our teammates, coaches, we’re all family. That’s the way Carolina baseball has always been. Even the people that come back for the alumni games and everything, I can remember we always felt a bond with the guys that came before us. That’s just the way it is. We come back for alumni weekend and we spend time together and you even build a relationship with the guys that came before you and the guys playing presently. It’s a big family and we take pride in the success that Carolina baseball has had over the last several years and we all feel like we had a part in it.”
Marchbanks is a member of the USC Association of Lettermen’s 2015 Athletics Hall of Fame class.
