• Gamecocks outlast Bruins, capture College World Series title

  Omaha, NE (Sports Network) - Whit Merrifield's line drive found open real estate down the right-field line, plating the winning run in the bottom of the 11th frame, and giving South Carolina its first College World Series title with a 2-1 victory over UCLA.

  Merrifield sliced a down-and-away offering from Dan Klein into no-man's land, scoring Scott Wingo with the winning run.

  South Carolina swept the best-of-three championship series and won its second- ever national championship in any sport, joining the women's track and field team.
