Super regionals roundup: Arizona completes series comeback against No. 5 North Carolina

June 8 - A pivotal eighth inning gave the Arizona Wildcats (44-19) a comeback 4-3 victory over the No. 5 North Carolina Tar Heels (46-15) in the decisive Game 3 of the Chapel Hill super regional. Garen Caulfield hit a solo shot in the second inning to notch Arizona's first run of the game. North Carolina infielder Jackson Van De Brake responded with a three-run homer in the third to give North Carolina an early lead. Both teams were scoreless over the next four innings, until the Tar Heels' defense and bullpen faltered in the eighth. An error put runners on first and second, then an Easton Breyfogle bunt drove in a run to make the game 3-2. Mason White hit a 2-RBI single with the bases loaded to put the Wildcats up 4-3 for good. Arizona's bullpen was lights out late, tossing three innings without surrendering a hit. Louisville 3, Miami 2 Eddie King Jr.'s RBI double in the seventh inning pushed the Cardinals (40-22) past the Hurricanes (35-27) in a Game 3 win at the Louisville super regional. Max Galvin hit a two-run shot to right field in the third inning for Miami's only runs of the game. The Hurricanes tallied eight hits, but failed to go for extra bases and went 0-for-3 with runners in scoring position. Miami starting pitcher was pulled after only 3 2/3 innings, forcing the Hurricanes to use five pitchers in the game. Louisville tied the game at 2-all in the fourth inning after a Zion Rose RBI double and a Bayram Hot grounder drove in Rose on a fielder's choice. With two outs in the seventh frame, Cardinals infielder Jake Munroe singled and advanced to second on a wild pitch. King Jr. then drove in Munroe for a 3-2 lead that Louisville would not relinquish. Murray State 19, Duke 9 The Racers (43-15) exploded for 17 hits, four home runs and a nine-run seventh inning in a blowout 19-9 win against the Blue Devils (41-20) in Game 2 of the Durham super regional to force a Game 3. Duke used eight pitchers in the contest, including starter Kyle Johnson, who was pulled after allowing six runs in only three innings. The Blue Devils scored first with back-to-back solo homers to right center in the first inning from AJ Gracia and Ben Miller. Murray State one-upped them with a Jonathan Hogart solo shot, followed by back-to-back walks and consecutive RBI singles with the bases loaded to go up 3-2. Murray State struck again in the second inning when Carson Garner hit a two-run shot. The Racers reached double-digit runs with a five-run fourth inning. Macon Winslow hit a two-run homer to cap a five-run sixth inning for Duke and narrow the score to 10-8. The Racers put an exclamation point on their offensive outburst with a nine-run seventh inning, featuring two-run homers by Dan Tauken and Conner Cunningham. --Field Level Media

Oregon State pounds 4 homers, turn 5 double plays, top USC 9-0 to win Corvallis Regional

CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) — Gavin Turley and Trent Caraway had two of Oregon State's four home runs and the Beavers captured the Corvallis Reginal with a 9-0 win over USC on Monday afternoon. After dropping their regional opener to Saint Mary's on Friday, the Beavers won four straight, outscoring opponents 47-6, including a 14-1 win over the Trojans on Sunday night. This time three pitchers allowed three hits. Now eighth-seeded Oregon State (45-13-1) plays host to ninth-seeded Florida State in a super regional next weekend. Turley and Caraway also homered in the previous win over USC. Turley hit three homers in the regional and upped his OSU career postseason home run record to seven. Caraway's five home runs in the reginal are a record for a single postseason. James DeCremer (3-0) allowed two hits and two walks with six strikeouts over five innings to set the tone for the Beavers. The defense turned five double plays before a record Goss Stadium crowd of 4,383. The last time Oregon State had a postseason shutout was 2018 when the Beavers beat Arkansas 5-0 to win the national championship. Turley also had an RBI single in the first inning and his home in the third came after Aiva Arquette drilled a two-run homer. Jacob Krieg, the No. 9 hitter, had a three-run blast in the eighth inning to wrap it up. It was the Beavers' 15th home run of the regional. Caden Hunter (6-6), the first of five pitchers for USC (37-23) allowed five runs on four hits in three innings. ___ AP college sports:

Colby Thorndyke drives in 6, sparks late-inning barrage in Coastal Carolina's 18-7 win over ECU

CONWAY, S.C. (AP) — Colby Thorndyke hit a grand slam to break a seventh-inning tie and finished with six RBIs as Coastal Carolina routed East Carolina 18-7 on Saturday night, sending the Chanticleers to the championship round of their super regional. The Chanticleers, batting as the visiting team, scored 14 runs in the last three innings. Coastal Carolina trailed 5-4 heading to the seventh inning, then Sebastian Alexander belted a lead-off home run to tie it. The Chanticleers loaded the bases on a single, an error and a hit batter, setting the stage for Thorndyke. He belted the first pitch over the right-field fence for a 9-5 lead. Two outs later, Caden Bodine's two-run double capped the six-run inning and Coastal Carolina led 10-5. Alexander added a two-run single to highlight a five-run eighth inning that gave CCU a 15-5 lead. Thorndyke added an RBI single in the ninth and scored on Blagen Pado's two-run home run. No. 3 seed East Carolina will play second-seeded Florida in an elimination game Sunday. That winner will need to beat Coastal Carolina later Sunday and again on Monday to reach the super regionals. The top-seeded host Chanticleers would advance with one win. Alexander drove in four runs and Pado three. Both had four hits, as did Thorndyke. Dixon Williams and Austin Irby each had a home run, three hits and two RBIs for the Pirates. Jack Herring had four hits. Matthew Potok (3-1) got the win. Brad Pruett (5-6) took the loss. ___ AP college sports:
