  • Arizona State among teams advancing to CWS

    Tempe, AZ (Sports Network) - Arizona State, UCLA, Florida State, South Carolina and TCU all won Sunday to advance to the College World Series.

    Drew Maggi belted a two-run homer in the 12th inning to lift the Sun Devils, the top national seed, to a 7-5 win over Arkansas, sweeping the Tempe Super Regional. The Sun Devils were a strike from winning the game in regulation, but Brett Eibner smacked a solo homer on a 1-2 pitch from Jordan Swagerty in the ninth inning to the game.

    The Gamecocks earned their ninth trip to the CWS thanks to a 10-9 win over Coastal Carolina to capture the Myrtle Beach Super Regional in two contests. Christian Walker's two-out, three-run homer in the bottom of the eighth inning proved to be the difference for South Carolina.

    The Seminoles secured their 20th berth in the CWS with a 7-6 win over Vanderbilt in the deciding Game 3 of the Tallahassee Super Regional. Sherman Johnson drove in four runs, but Florida State had to survive a three-run ninth inning by the Commodores to grab the win.

    TCU punched its first-ever ticket to Omaha with a 4-1 victory over Texas to win the Austin Super Regional in the deciding third game. Aaron Schultz belted a two-run homer and Kyle Winkler threw 7 2/3 shutout innings for the Horned Frogs, who will play Florida State in their first game in the College World Series.

    Rob Rasmussen threw a two-hit complete game, and UCLA advanced to the College World Series for the first time since 1997 with an 8-1 win over Cal State Fullerton Sunday night. It was the deciding third contest of the Los Angeles Super Regional. The Bruins will head to Omaha and will play Florida in their first game.

    Oklahoma forced a decisive Game 3 in the Charlottesville Super Regional with a 10-7 win over Virginia Sunday. Cody Reine drove in five runs off two homers for the Sooners. The series will be decided Monday night.
