March 27th
1967 - Four days after becoming a father Billy Reitmeier, an Atlanta native, stood out in front of his home fans, as he threw a no-hitter against Georgia in Athens. Reitmeier struck out six and walked four in just the fourth no-hitter in USC history and the first since 1949 when Frank Sherer turned the trick against Presbyterian. Carolina scored one in the first, two in the sixth and added runs in the seventh and ninth for a 6-0 win. Mike Fair, USC quarterback and future state senator, led the offense with three hits.
