LOUISVILLE, Ky. - After taking care of Arizona in their previous College World Series matchup, the Louisville baseball program now gets another crack at No. 8 Oregon State, facing them in the CWS' 1-1 elimination game.

Trailing by a run heading to the eighth inning, the Cardinals stormed back with a six-run eighth inning, primarily using that to take down the Wildcats 8-3 in the 0-1 elimination game. Kamau Neighbors went 4-for-4, and Zion Rose drove in three runs, including the go-ahead two-run single.

As for the Beavers, they had the task of facing No. 13 Coastal Carolina and their 24-game win streak in the 1-0 game. The Chanticleers plated three runs in the first, and following a leadoff home run in the third, Oregon State could only generate five more base runners for the rest of the game. This resulted in getting handed a 6-2 loss to fall into the loser's bracket.

This will be the second matchup between Louisville and Oregon State in this College World Series. The Beavers earned a walk-off 4-3 victory over the Cardinals in the opener of the event this past Friday.
