Huskers Wrap Up Opening Series With Win

The Nebraska baseball team won their first game of the season Monday in Fresno, California. The Huskers defeated the Fresno St. Bulldogs 4-1 in the final game of a four-game series. The Huskers lost the first three games to the 2008 College World Series Champion Bulldogs, one of which went 11 innings. Nebraska is 1-3 on the season and now head to the Rice Invitational in Texas to play Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, Rice, and Elon.

CWS Uniform Recap, Part Six

Number six: Arizona St. The Devils had some great uniforms this year. Twice we saw the great gray jerseys with the classic Devils script. They wore the home whites with the AS logo on the chest one game. But the most...interesting...by far were the throwbacks worn against Texas. They were maroon pullovers with all yellow caps, ,white pants, and of course, stirrups.

CWS Uniform Recap, Part Five

Now up: Arkansas. The Razorbacks lasted a few more games than people may have thought they would, yet the uniforms they wore should not have. In my opinion, these were the worst unis in Omaha this year. The home whites and alternate maroons were both worn, both with maroon caps and white pants. The jerseys feature a unique shoulder design. I hope these jerseys don't return to Omaha.

CWS Uniform Recap, Part Four

Next up: North Carolina. UNC has many different jerseys and caps to choose from, yet they only wore two different combos. Game one featured the regular home unis. White sleeveless with the Carolina script. The white caps with light blue bills were worn. For games two and three, the Heels wore their alternate light blue jerseys. These feature a newer Carolina script and were worn with the white hats. Also, UNC wore white helmets, which match the caps, for the second and third time in school history while in Omaha.

CWS Uniform Recap, Part Three

Now up: Virginia. Another team making their first trip to Omaha, the Cavs played three games. In all three games, Virginia wore their regular home uniforms. The jerseys feature a classic script. They were worn with the navy caps with orange bills. Somewhat disappointing to only see one uniform, but they looked good.

CWS Uniform Recap, Part Two

Next up: Southern Miss. USM made it's first ever trip to Omaha this year, only playing two games. In game one we saw the Eagles' regular road uniforms. They were worn with the black cap with the interlocking USM logo. For game two, USM wore their yellow alternates. They were worn with the black caps and white pants.

College World Series Uniform Recap

As the 2009 College World Series comes to a close, I will recap the uniforms that made an appearance in Omaha for each team. A picture or two for each of the eight teams will be posted.

Starting with Cal St. Fullerton. CSF had a short stay in Omaha. They went 2 and out. In game one we saw their regular home pinstripes. The navy cap was worn with it. Game two for the Titans was the navy road alternate with the Fullerton script. This was worn with the navy cap and gray pinstriped pants.
