This week, we’ll take a quick look at each of the teams that will be making the trip to Omaha for the 2019 NCAA College World Series.
LOUISVILLE
Conference: ACC
2019 record: 49-16 (21-9 ACC)
Regional: defeated UIC, Illinois State
Super: defeated East Carolina 14-1, 12-0
Team leaders:
LHP Reid Detmers (2.85 ERA, 17 GS, 162 K’s, .89 WHIP, .178 BAA)
RHP Michael McAvene (.83 WHIP, 7 SV, 46 K’s)
SS Tyler Fitzgerald (.324 AVG, 7 HR, 68 RBI, .887 OPS)
1B Logan Wyatt (.291 AVG, 9 HR, 53 RBI, .928 OPS)
Notes: It’s the fifth overall trip to Omaha for Louisville, and their fourth in the last seven years. Yet, the Cardinals sport just a 2-8 record once they reach TD Ameritrade Park. Louisville mashed in the super regional round, putting up 26 runs over two games against ECU. They’ll take on Vanderbilt opening weekend in Omaha.
