North Carolina leaves the College World Series

June 19, 2009

asucwsYes thats right, my boys in blue have been taken out of the College World Series today losing to Arizona State 12-5.  The Tarheels had the early 4-0 lead going into the bottom of the 5th inning.  Then Kole Calhoun stepped up to the plate with one out in the bottom of the 5th inning.  This Sun Devil reportedly couldnt explain what happened next.  He homered to the right center of the stands hitting a grand slam homerun tying the game up at four all.  He didnt stop there though.  In his next at bat in the bottom of the 7th inning he drove home the next two runs not knowing he had sealed the deal with his double into deep right center field.  One would think that the players would have caught onto the fact that he was hitting into right center field after his last at bat.  The rest, as they say, is history.  Arizona State moves on to play Texas tomorrow (Friday, June 19th) at 6:00 P.M. Central Standard Time on ESPN 2.  I hope you will watch it because in order for Arizona State to move on, they will have to beat Texas twice in a row.  Texas comes into the game 2-0 hoping to make it a short stay for the Sun Devils.  This means if Arizona State wins tomorrow, then they will have to play Texas again on Saturday.  Should be an interesting game with ASU playing their little hearts out…you should be watching this if you haven’t already planned to.  I am predicting that Texas will win 7-2 tomorrow sending Arizona State home.
