Coming out of last season, LSU coach Jay Johnson couldn\'t have foreseen the national championship this group of tenacious Tigers is taking back to Baton Rouge.
\"It was probably a year ago today,\" he said, \"we had 12 players in our program that actually played on the field for us in 2024. Twelve.\"
Then, quoting his mentor and LSU baseball patriarch Skip Bertman, Johnson said: \"We ended up with some really good fortune.\"
LSU knocked previously unbeaten Coastal Carolina ace Jacob Morrison out of the game with a four-run fourth inning, and the Tigers won their second national title in three years Sunday with a 5-3 victory in the Men\'s College World Series finals.
