Tar Heels Soar to CWS Finals
from Pittsburgh News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
North Carolina’s baseball team just made history, storming into the College World Series finals for the first time since 2007 with a 12-7 demolition of West Virginia. Their offense exploded after early struggles, going 8-for-10 with runners in scoring position and smashing five extra-base hits — their best offensive showing of the tournament. Owen Hull nearly hit for the cycle with a triple, two doubles, and a single, while Cooper Nicholson’s two-run triple gave them an early lead they never relinquished. West Virginia clawed back with a late rally — five runs in the 7th, another homer in the 8th — but it wasn’t enough. Jackson Rose shut the door with dominant relief, and now the Tar Heels face Oklahoma or Georgia in a best-of-three showdown for their first-ever national title.
