Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP) is making significant strides in the NCAA Division II College World Series (CWS). After defeating Point Loma 1-0, IUP's bats came alive in a dramatic 10-8 victory over defending national champion Angelo State, ensuring their survival in the tournament. This sets up a semifinal rematch with Angelo State, with the winner advancing to the championship game. The Hawks, led by coach Steve Kline, known for his fiery nature, have shown resilience. Meanwhile, the University of Tampa secured a 7-2 win against Catawba and will compete for their ninth national title on Saturday against either Angelo State or IUP. In Division III, the Misericordia Cougars are leading 9-2 in a decisive Game 3 of the World Series, just nine outs away from a National Championship.
With today's 7-2 win vs. Catawba, @UT_Baseball will seek national title No. 9 Saturday afternoon vs. Angelo State or IUP. The nine crowns would tie Florida Southern for most in Division II.
Remember the Misericordia Cougars? The HBP kings of college baseball? They're currently up 9-2 in a winner-take-all Game 3 of the D-III World Series. HBP-U is just 9 outs from a National Championship. https://t.co/twMllMFiaS
