LSU defeated Texas last night, 7‐6, in 11 innings in Game 1 of the CWS Championship Finals. Prior to last night, the last meeting between the clubs occurred in the 2000 College World Series, when LSU defeated UT, 13‐5, en route to its fifth national championship. The only other meeting between LSU and Texas in Omaha took place in 1989, when the Longhorns eliminated the Tigers from the CWS, 12‐7. From 1989 to present, the teams have met a total of 12 times, with Texas holding a 7‐5 edge in those contests. GAME 2 PITCHING MATCHUP LSU – So. RHP Austin Ross (6‐7, 5.09 ERA, 81.1 IP, 21 BB, 76 SO) UT – Fr. RHP Taylor Jungmann (10‐3, 2.21 ERA, 85.2 IP, 33 BB, 92 SO ) COACHES • LSU coach Paul Mainieri is in his third season at LSU, and he has a 133‐61‐2 record at the helm of the Tiger program. Mainieri has a career mark of 997‐553‐6 in 27 seasons as a collegiate head coach. Mainieri is in the College World Series for the third time in his career – he directed Notre Dame to the CWS in 2002 and he guided LSU to Omaha last season. Mainieri has a 6‐4 career mark in College World Series games (1‐2 at Notre Dame; 5‐2 at LSU). He has a 35‐22 career record in NCAA Tournament games (20‐19 at Notre Dame; 15‐3 at LSU). • Texas coach Augie Garrido is in his 13th season at UT, where he has a 566‐268‐2 mark. He is the all‐time winningest coach in college baseball history with a 1,717‐770‐8 record in 41 seasons. Garrido has won five national championships, including three at Cal State Fullerton (1979, 1984, 1995) and two at Texas (2002, 2005). NOTEWORTHY • LSU, the NCAA Tournament No. 3 national seed, enters Tuesday’s game riding a 14‐game win streak. LSU’s last loss occurred on May 20 in the opening round of the SEC Tournament in Hoover, Ala., where the Tigers dropped a 4‐1 decision to Vanderbilt. The Tigers opened the CWS with a 9‐5 victory over Virginia and defeated Arkansas twice (9‐1 and 14‐5) to advance to the CWS Championship Finals. • Last night’s 7‐6, 11‐inning win over Texas in Game 1 of the CWS Championship Finals marked just the second extra‐ inning game for LSU in its 15 College World Series appearances. The Tigers’ only other extra‐inning game in Omaha occurred in 1987, when LSU defeated Florida State, 6‐2, in 10 innings. • LSU is making its first appearance in a CWS championship round since 2000. The Tigers are 5‐0 in their previous finals appearances, claiming national titles in 1991, 1993, 1996, 1997 and 2000. • LSU will attempt to tie Texas for second place on the all‐time College World Series titles list. Texas has six national championships, followed by LSU and Arizona State with five each. Southern California is in first place with 12 national titles. • LSU has a 121‐44 (.733) all‐time record in the NCAA Tournament and owns the highest winning percentage in tournament history. The Tigers are making their 15th College World Series appearance and their second in a row – LSU is 34‐19 (.642) at the CWS with five national titles (1991, 1993, 1996, 1997, 2000). • LSU, which won 26 of its final 29 games to close the 2008 season, has a remarkable 81‐19 (.810) record since April 22, 2008. The Tigers’ late‐season drive to the 2008 CWS featured an SEC‐record 23‐game win streak, and LSU enters Game 2 of the 2009 CWS Championship Finals riding a 14‐game win streak. • LSU senior pitcher Louis Coleman is the Tigers’ first 14‐game winner since Patrick Coogan won 14 games in 1997. Coleman has a 29‐12 career record at LSU, tying him with Ben McDonald for eighth place on the all‐time school wins list. Coleman, a 2009 first‐team all‐American and the 2009 SEC Pitcher of the Year, has 299 career strikeouts – he is No. 10 on LSU’s all‐time strikeouts list. • Freshman right‐hander Matty Ott has established the LSU single‐season saves record with 16 on the year. He surpassed the previous mark of the 14 saves set by Rick Greene in 1991, LSU’s first national championship season. Ott, the 2009 SEC Co‐Freshman of the Year, has received second‐team all‐America recognition this season. • Junior outfielder Jared Mitchell is No. 2 on the all‐time LSU career steals list with 70. He trails only Rob Hartwig, who had 73 steals from 1986‐87. Mitchell’s 36 steals this season marks the second‐highest single season total in LSU history – Hartwig has the single‐season mark with 42 in 1987. • LSU DH/OF Blake Dean is No. 8 on the all‐time LSU home run list with 44 career dingers. He is No. 6 on the LSU career RBI list with 189 • LSU OF/1B Ryan Schimpf is No. 10 on the all‐time LSU home run list with 38 career dingers. Schimpf has three home runs in the 2009 College World Series, marking the first time an LSU player has hit three homers in the CWS since former first baseman Brad Hawpe launched three dingers in Omaha in 2000. Schimpf has 22 homers this season, the 10th‐ highest single‐season total in LSU history.

    NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS ASSOCIATION (June 17, 2017) ncbwa.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Todd Miles, NCBWA ([email protected]) OREGON STATE’S PAT CASEY SELECTED AS 2017 NCBWA NATIONAL COACH OF THE YEAR OMAHA – After leading Oregon State to one of the most dominating seasons in college baseball history, including a trip to the 2017 College World Series, Oregon State’s Pat Casey has been named the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association National Coach of the Year. “Coach Pat Casey has taken OSU to the best record at this point in the season since Texas’ 1975 NCAA championship team finished 59-6,” said NCBWA executive director Bo Carter. “No team has dominated Division I like this in decades, and it speaks of the great coaching ability and leadership of Coach Casey. He definitely deserves this national honor.” The Beavers advanced to the CWS under Casey with an Oregon State single-season record 54 wins (54-4 overall), and set a Pac-12 Conference record for wins, while finishing league play with a 27-3 mark. Casey’s Beavers own the two longest winning streaks in college baseball in 2017 with a 23-game streak and an active 21-game streak. On May 12, Casey became just the 16th active coach to reach 1,000 wins with a four-year program. After opening the season ranked seventh in the NCBWA preseason poll, Casey led the Beavers to 28 wins in their first 29 games including the 23-game win streak. The Beavers moved into the top spot in every national poll in late March and remained the nation’s No.

  • Clips for 7-12-10
    MEDIA CLIPS – July 20, 2017 Arenado thrives with unconventional technique Uncommon footwork paying off at plate for Rox slugger By Joe Trezza / MLB.com | 10:00 AM ET NEW YORK -- Give it a few years, some in the Rockies' organization believe, and the Major Leagues could be a league littered with players like Nolan Arenado. Not in terms of production -- not everyone woke up Thursday fresh off a three- homer game and eyeing a third straight RBI title -- but in hitting approach and style. Baseball is a copycat game. Do something at the plate a little differently and very well, and soon someone is bound to mirror it. Baseball people don't think it a coincidence Giants prospect Christian Arroyo resembles Buster Posey in stance and swing, or how Jose Bautista's leg kick led to Josh Donaldson's and Justin Turner's, and on and on. The next trend may come from a mechanical tweak in Arenado's load some are calling the driving force behind not just the third baseman's homers, but also his future standing as a pioneer. "It's now three straight years, and he comes in at the break and he's leading baseball in RBI," Rockies broadcaster and former outfielder Ryan Spilborghs said. "You start paying attention to him. Mechanically, what does he do?" It's what Arenado does with his back (right) foot, specifically, during his swing that is turning heads. Slow down the video of his three-homer game Wednesday. Before each one, Arenado actually lifts his back foot off the ground prior to stepping with the front foot, a momentum-creating motion that essentially gives him a running start into the pitch.

  • LINE DRIVES the NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 48, No
    LINE DRIVES THE NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 48, No. 3, Apr. 17, 2009) The President’s Message By NCBWA President Joe Dier NCBWA Membership: With the 2008-09 hoops season now in the record books, the collegiate spotlight is focusing more closely on the nation’s baseball diamonds. Though we’re heading into the final month of the season, there are still plenty of twists and turns ahead on the road to Omaha and the 2009 NCAA College World Series. The NCAA will soon be announcing details of next month’s tournament selection announcements naming the regional host sites (May 24) and the 64-team tournament field (May 25). To date, four different teams have claimed the top spot in the NCBWA’s national Division I polls --- Arizona State, Georgia, LSU, and North Carolina. Several other teams have graced the No. 1 position in other national polls. The NCAA’s mid-April RPI listing has Cal State Fullerton leading the 301-team pack, with 19 teams sporting 25-win records through games of April 12. For the record, New Mexico State tops the wins list with a 30-6 mark. As the conference races heat up from coast to coast, the NCBWA will begin the process for naming its All- America teams and the Divk Howser Trophy (see below). We will have a form going out to conference offices and Division I independents in coming days. Last year’s NCBWA-selected team included 56 outstanding baseball athletes, and we want to have the names of all deserving players on the table for consideration for this year’s awards.
