Florida State eliminated North Carolina from the MCWS with a 9-5 win Tuesday and will face No. 1 Tennessee on Wednesday in the semifinals.
OMAHA, Neb. -- Connor Hults felt a whole lot better walking off the mound at the end of the game Tuesday than he did three days earlier.
When he finished the eighth, he had no doubt in his mind he would go back out for the ninth, and he let Jarrett know it. "We had one of the best teams in the country and our goal was to win this whole thing," the Tar Heels' Casey Cook said."The postseason, we didn't hit how we necessarily wanted to. We didn't get what we wanted, but we have zero regrets. We gave everything we had."
North Carolina scored four runs in the bottom half. With two runners on, Vance Honeycutt greeted Conner Whittaker with his fourth homer in five games, and Jackson Van De Brake followed with an RBI single to make it a two-run game.
