The Cardinals enter the Men’s College World Series for the sixth time in program history, and the first time since 2019. After winning the team’s first regional championship in three years, Louisville beat ACC rival Miami in the Super Regional.

Louisville avoided elimination by outlasting Oregon State 7-6 in a thrilling rematch that featured four home runs and an epic ninth inning.

The Cardinals make up for a ninth inning collapse, and now face the Chanticleers for the right to move on to the CWS Finals.
