# 2013 UCF Knights baseball team

The 2013 UCF Knights baseball team represented the University of Central Florida in the 2013 college baseball season. The Knights competed in Division I of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and Conference USA (C-USA). The team played their home games at Jay Bergman Field (also known as the UCF Baseball Complex), located on UCF's main campus in Orlando, Florida. The Knights were led by head coach Terry Rooney, who was in his fifth season with the team.
In the 2013 season, the Knights looked to build upon their appearance in the 2012 tournament, in which they came within one game of advancing to the programs first super regional. UCF had advanced to the NCAA tournament in each of the two previous seasons. The 2013 season also marked UCF's last as a member of Conference USA, as the Knights became members of the American Athletic Conference (The American) in July 2013.
