The Tigers defeated Coastal Carolina in Game 2 of the series finals, 5-3. This is the team's eighth College World Series title and coach Jay Johnson's second national title win in three seasons.
'Unbelievable, I'm so proud right now,' said Johnson. 'It's not to be taken for granted being here two years ago. That (2023 championship) was special, greatest night of my life. This is equal, and maybe even tops in some ways.'
