Murray State baseball eliminates Duke Blue Devils to reach College World Series
Omaha remains just out of reach for Duke baseball. A late-game collapse spelled disaster for the Blue Devils in a 5-4 loss to Murray State in Monday's winner-take-all game of the NCAA Durham Super Regional. The Racers spoiled Duke's College World Series hopes on Jack Coombs Field, clinching a spot in Omaha for the first time. Murray State coach Dan Skirka gets a Powerade bath after Murray State's 5-4 victory over Duke in the third game of the Durham Super Regional at Jack Coombs Field in Durham, N.C., Monday, June 9, 2025. Duke carried a 3-2 lead into the seventh inning, but the Racers tied the game when Jonathan Hogart belted his second home run of the game in the top of the seventh. Murray State then took the lead for good with two more runs in the top of the eighth inning and held on, preventing Duke (41-21) from making its first College World Series appearance since 1961. Advertisement '[That's] one of the best offenses that we've run up against all season,' Duke's head coach Chris Pollard said. 'The kids were tough. They didn't break down to the moment.' Duke players watch as Murray State celebrates their 5-4 victory over Duke in the third game of the Durham Super Regional at Jack Coombs Field in Durham, N.C., Monday, June 9, 2025. The teams combined for six home runs, and it was Luke Mistone's tie-breaking homer in the top of the eighth that pushed the Racers over the edge. Murray State (44-15) is the fourth No. 4 seed to ever advance to the MCWS, and the first Missouri Valley Conference team to reach Omaha since 2003. 'Hopefully, it motivates everybody,' Murray State head coach Dan Skirka said. 'This team could do it with 28 newcomers and three new coaches. [They] came together and hit their stride at the right time.' Murray State players including pitcher Graham Kelham (41), left, celebrate the last out in Murray State's 5-4 victory over Duke in the third game of the Durham Super Regional at Jack Coombs Field in Durham, N.C., Monday, June 9, 2025. Duke's final home run in the bottom of the eighth wasn't enough to save the Blue Devils' season, and their 64-year Omaha drought continues. Advertisement In similar fashion to Sunday's game, Hogart cranked a leadoff home run over the left field wall. Carson Garner followed it up with a double, and Dom Decker to batted him in with a single up the middle. The Racers loaded the bases, stringing together five hits. Freshman starting pitcher Henry Zatkowski escaped the inning with the Blue Devils trailing 2-0. 'Yesterday, he ambushed a first-pitch fastball, and so today, we were going to go heavy breaking ball,' Pollard said. 'That's Henry Zatkowski's best swing-and-miss pitch. His slider to a right-handed hitter is the best swing-and-miss he has. He'd thrown it twice and gotten bad swings — a bad take and a bad swing — and then, all of a sudden, you get an on-time swing and he hits it 400 feet.' Zatkowski recovered, collecting a career-high seven strikeouts in four innings. Duke punched back in the bottom of the first. First baseman Jake Hyde hit a sacrifice fly to right field to plate shortstop Wallace Clark, who drew a leadoff walk and advanced to second on a single from AJ Gracia. Murray State's Dom Decker (12) forces out Duke's Wallace Clark (7) in the ninth inning during Murray State's 5-4 victory over Duke in the third game of the Durham Super Regional at Jack Coombs Field in Durham, N.C., Monday, June 9, 2025. Hyde followed with a home run to center field in the third to knot the game at 2-2. Then, second baseman Jake Berger — who entered Monday going 0-5 with two walks in the super regional series — led off the fourth inning with a home run soaring just three feet over the center field wall to give Duke its first lead of the night, 3-2. Advertisement After five scoreless innings that saw only one hit from the Racers, Hogart tied it back up with another home run in the top of the seventh, nailing a ball 413 feet over the left field fence. Mistone rocketed another long ball to the same spot, retaking the lead for Murray State in the top of the eighth. Then, Dan Tauken's RBI triple pushed the Racers' lead to 5-3. 'They're just so good at bat-to-ball,' Pollard said. 'They're really, really good at two strikes. They center the ball really well. It's probably a combination of having some guys that have all had skill set, and they happened to be in the same lineup together.' Murray State's Jonathan Hogart (15) celebrates hitting a home run during Duke's game against Murray State in the third game of the Durham Super Regional at Jack Coombs Field in Durham, N.C., Monday, June 9, 2025. In the bottom of the inning, Duke sophomore catcher Macon Winslow sent the sixth home run of the night to left field with two outs to pull the Blue Devils within one. Advertisement Duke had life in the bottom of the ninth when Clark was hit by an inside breaking ball with nobody out. After a Gracia foul out, the Blue Devils' season nearly ended on a rare runner's interference call for an illegal slide into second on what could have been a double play off the bat of Ben Miller. The Racers even stormed the field in celebration. Duke's Jake Hyde (16) celebrates with Tyler Albright (40) and Ben Rounds (8) after hitting a home run in the third inning during Duke's game against Murray State in the third game of the Durham Super Regional at Jack Coombs Field in Durham, N.C., Monday, June 9, 2025. But, officials overturned the call. Clark was still out at second. Miller was safe at first. Duke pinch ran for Miller, but the Racers reset and Graham Kelham got Hyde to ground out to first base to end the game, the fourth time in the past seven NCAA tournaments the Blue Devils' season ended in a super regional. Advertisement 'We've won so many ball games over the years,' Pollard said. 'We won so many big ball games: ACC Championships, Regional Championships [and] ball games that we had to win in the regular season to go to the NCAA Tournament — must-win kind of ball games. It's hard for me to reconcile why we haven't been able to do it in this particular kind of game.' Murray State's Will Vierling (17) runs home on a triple by Dan Tauken in the eighth inning during Murray State's 5-4 victory over Duke in the third game of the Durham Super Regional at Jack Coombs Field in Durham, N.C., Monday, June 9, 2025. Duke's Kyle Johnson (5) crashes into the wall as he chases a fly ball during Duke's game against Murray State in the third game of the Durham Super Regional at Jack Coombs Field in Durham, N.C., Monday, June 9, 2025. Duke's Henry Zatkowski (12) celebrates after striking out a player to end the inning during Duke's game against Murray State in the third game of the Durham Super Regional at Jack Coombs Field in Durham, N.C., Monday, June 9, 2025. Duke's Kyle Johnson (5) is hit by a pitch during Duke's game against Murray State in the third game of the Durham Super Regional at Jack Coombs Field in Durham, N.C., Monday, June 9, 2025. The Duke bench celebrates with Jake Hyde (16) after he hit a home run during Duke's game against Murray State in the third game of the Durham Super Regional at Jack Coombs Field in Durham, N.C., Monday, June 9, 2025.

Experts Say Texas A&M's Kevin Concepcion Primed for Breakout Season
Experts Say Texas A&M's Kevin Concepcion Primed for Breakout Season originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Texas A&M football squad averaged just over 30 points and just under 400 offensive yards per game in 2024. Advertisement Experts say the Aggies could be even more explosive in 2025 — for a number of reasons: It will be head coach Mike Elko's second season on the sidelines after coming over from Duke after 2023. It will be quarterback Marcel Reed's second full season behind an offensive line returning all five starters. 2024 leading receiver Noah Thomas is returning after 39 catches for 574 yards and eight touchdowns. Leading rusher Le'Veon Moss returns after going for 10 touchdowns and 906 yards from scrimmage. These are important factors. However, the rocket fuel in the Aggies' 2025 attack is likely to come from three Top-50 pass catchers the program gained in the offseason transfer portal. These include Mario Craver and Micah Hudson, from Mississippi State and Texas Tech, respectively, and high NFL draft prospect Kevin Concepcion. North Carolina State Wolfpack wide receiver Kevin Concepcion (10) transferred to Texas A&M for Yamashita-Imagn Images A transfer from NC State, Concepcion is ranked solidly in the top 10 among all NCAA receivers. ESPN has him at No.10. NFL Draft Buzz pinned him at No. 9. And On3 listed the former Wolfback snagger as the third-best receiver in the 2024 transfer portal. Advertisement On June 12, Pro Football Focus — better known as — listed Concepcion as one of its 10 Impact Transfer Portal Players to Know. Yes, that's a mouthful. Nevertheless, Aggies nation should be pumped about Concepcion's upside. Concepcion was the 2023 ACC Rookie of the Year, and earned second-team All-ACC honors as a true freshman. That year, he also broke the NC State freshman record with 71 catches, 839 yards, and 10 TDs. On June 4, Elko talked to reporters about Concepcion at a Houston Coach's night. He had coached against 'KC' in 2023, when his Duke team smothered NC State 24-3. The freshman wideout still had 99 total yards that night, on six catches and four rushing attempts. 'I played against (Concepcion) his freshman year at Duke,' Elko said. 'He has been a really mature kid. He has that captain make-up.' Advertisement He's also a breakaway bandit. noted in its June 12 article that, since 2023, Concepcion is second in YAC (yards-after-catch) with 792, and is 14th in receiving touchdowns, with 16. That's not all. The versatile Concepcion ranks third among all returning wideouts in rushing yards with 357. He's a vial of nitroglycerin in an offensive room stacked with dynamite.

College World Series: Power ranking the eight teams in Omaha. Where does LSU rank?
College World Series: Power ranking the eight teams in Omaha. Where does LSU rank? The College World Series is a championship like no other. Eight teams travel to Omaha with the aim of winning a national title. It's a 10-day event that features two four-team double-elimination brackets followed by a best-of-three championship series. The 2025 field features some fresh faces. No team from the 2024 CWS made it back this year. However, most of these teams aren't strangers to Omaha. LSU is back for the second time in three years after winning the national championship in 2023. West Coast powers like Arizona, UCLA, and Oregon State are here, too. Coastal Carolina has been to Omaha just once before, but it won the national title in 2016. Louisville is also familiar with the CWS, making its sixth appearance since 2007. Then there's Arkansas, a perennial contender chasing its first-ever national championship. You have your Cinderella story, too, with Murray State making its first CWS trip in program history. The action will begin on Friday, but before we get underway, let's rank the eight teams in the 2025 College World Series. 8. Murray State Racers This is no slight on Murray State in the midst of its historic run. What the Racers have done so far is incredible. Murray State has 44 wins, upset Ole Miss and Georgia Tech in the regional, and upset Duke in the super regional. The Ohio Valley from Kentucky plays in a home stadium that fits just 800. Now, it's playing in the College World Series. Don't underestimate this squad, but from a power ratings standpoint, they're the longest shot in Omaha. Per BetMGM, the Racers' national title odds are +3000. With Jonathan Hogart and Carson Garner, Murray State has some hitters that can hit it out of the park. Dom Decker and Justin Mercer are hit machines, too. But the pitching is a huge question mark. Murray State has won a few shootouts to get here, but that style of play won't work with the quality of pitcher it will face in Omaha. 7. Louisville Cardinals Louisville made it to Omaha despite losing its last three series of the regular season and being one-and-done in the ACC Tournament. The Cardinals have since turned it around, winning the Nashville Regional and beating Miami in a three-game Super Regional. But I have too many questions about this Cardinals squad to label them a contender. Louisville's ERA of 5.35 ranks 12th in the ACC, and the Cardinals allow 5.9 runs per game. There are things to like. Louisville has 155 steals and ranks fifth in the ACC in slugging, but I don't think it has enough to overcome the pitching woes. Louisville has a tough opener vs. Oregon State. If Louisville loses, it doesn't have the tools to climb out of the losers' bracket. 6. Arizona Wildcats Arizona has won 10 of its last 11 games entering Omaha. But the recent success came right on the heels of a stretch where Arizona dropped five of six. Arizona's run is impressive, but the Wildcats have been inconsistent vs. top competition this year. Arizona began its schedule 0-3, losing to Ole Miss, Clemson, and Louisville. Later in the year, Arizona dropped a game vs. Tennessee. The Wildcats' run differential also ranks in the bottom half of the Big 12. They do a little bit of everything, but there's not one elite unit that can carry this team. Arizona has a few guys that can hit it out of the park, but the lineup doesn't walk enough, and it's prone to strikeouts. That will hurt the Wildcats when facing teams like Coastal Carolina and Oregon State. 5. UCLA Bruins UCLA is 47-16 on the year and ranks No. 11 nationally in the Massey Ratings. Playing in the Big Ten, the Bruins didn't face the same caliber of schedule as some other teams in Omaha did. Their NCAA Tournament path has been on the easier side too, facing UTSA in the super regional. UCLA gets another favorable matchup in its CWS opener with Murray State on the docket. But UCLA must face LSU or Arkansas in its second contest. We'll find out a lot about this Bruins squad then. Expect to see quality at-bats from this lineup. UCLA ranked second in the Big Ten in batting average, takes walks, and avoids strikeouts. The path for UCLA involves stringing hits together, but that won't come easy vs. the LSU and Arkansas pitching staffs. 4. Oregon State Beavers Oregon State is making its first trip to Omaha since 2018 as the three-time champ looks to add a fourth trophy to the case. Oregon State ranks No. 7 nationally in the Massey Ratings. Its offense and pitching/defense both rank in the top 10. The Beavers had to play without a conference this year after the PAC-12 fell apart, forcing them to throw an independent schedule together. The strength of that slate was weaker than a few of their Omaha peers, but they've passed every test in the postseason. The Beavers' lineup is dangerous. The only team in the CWS field with more homers than Oregon State is Arkansas. The group is led by shortstop Aiva Arquette, a potential top-five MLB draft pick. On the mound, Dax Whitney and Ethan Kleinschmidt give Oregon State two formidable starters who can duel it out with anyone in the field. Oregon State is favored to win its opening game vs. Arizona. 3. Coastal Carolina Chanticleers Coastal Carolina is making its second trip to Omaha. The only time it was here before, the Chanticleers won it all in 2016. Now, Coastal arrives in Omaha as the hottest team in baseball, riding a 23-game win streak. Coming from the Sun Belt, there are naturally questions about how CCU will fare vs. top competition, but the Chanticleers have come through when tested. The 23-game win streak includes a win at Clemson and a super regional sweep of Auburn. The Massey Ratings slot Coastal as the fourth-best team in the sport, and the Chants are the favorite to win their side of the bracket. The pitching staff is among the best in the country, and the lineup is deep. They do the little things, too, leading the SBC in stolen bases and fielding percentage. LSU has been here before. The Tigers have won seven national championships. Several players on this team were members of the 2023 squad that won it all. Per BetMGM, LSU ranks No. 2 on the title odds board with +220 odds to win the championship. The Tigers have the pieces to capture the trophy. The one-two starting pitching punch of Kade Anderson and Anthony Eyanson is hard to beat. And LSU's lineup is riding high after scoring 28 combined runs vs. West Virginia in the super regional. 1. Arkansas Razorbacks The Razorbacks are the betting favorites to win the national title, and they take the top spot in our power rankings. Arkansas is led by long-time head coach Dave Van Horn, but it's yet to capture the elusive national championship. Perhaps, this is the Razorbacks' best chance yet. Led by ace Zach Root, Arkansas has the deepest pitching staff in the field -- that goes for the starting rotation and the bullpen. The group is battle tested after competing in the SEC, baseball's best conference. At the plate, Wehiwa Aloy is arguably the top position player in Omaha. He headlines a lineup that can do damage one through nine. Arkansas has looked like a juggernaut at times this year. It had the occasional slump, but so did every team that faced SEC pitching each week. Arkansas' status as the favorite this week is well earned.
