Coastal Carolina won against Arizona 4-3 in the final game in the College World Series on Thursday night, on a game delay due to bad weather. Having to play the game two days coming out on top.

Andrew Beckwith (15-1) the national leader in wins pitched 5 2/3 of innings of The College World Series. He pitched two complete games while in the playoffs, this making this his third victory in The College World Series. All of the players had a spectacular night, including Alex Cunningham, earning a strike out against Arizona player Ryan Haung with a full-court fastball to end the game and have Coastal Carolina win The College World Series.

It has been a long journey for Coastal Carolina. They have played fantastic ball ever since they were in the playoffs. Their record was 55-18, the first team since Minnesota in 1956 that won the title of The College World Series. “It is the best feeling of my life.” G.K. Young told the reporters the night of their win.

The first year coach, Jay Johnson says “Amazing season, and they deserve the championship.” That would be the greatest complement any player could get from their coach after winning the Championship. Head coach of 21 years, Gilmore also commented that “Whenever he dies, I know the group of guys here, they willed themselves to be the national championship.”

Making it to the championship is a huge part of the player’s lives, they have been working hard to earn the position that they are in. player, Beckwith shares that, “It was a full team effort the whole College World Series, and we get it done.”

All of the coaches, all of the parents, all of the students and all of the fans of South Carolina Coastal Carolina are going to celebrate such a huge win, that they have deserved for years.

The Championship was also the first in a team sport in 33 year history of the Big South Conference. Also this past Friday the team became members of the Sun Belt Conference, which is a collegiate athletic conference that has been ben apart of the NCAA Division since 1976.

The players have so much love for each other and all of the fans that have supported them since the very beginning. They are going to go home with a big trophy and huge smiles on their faces. All threw the tournament they had fun, they didn’t take it to seriously, that I think is one reason they won the championship.

The team is going back to Conway, South Carolina with the first schools win of a national championship of any of the sports that are at Coastal, which is a big accomplishment.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
