Oregon State repeats as Baseball National Champs

In summary, the Oregon State Beavers had an incredible season despite facing many challenges. Despite being in a "rebuilding year" and losing most of their starting players, they struggled in conference play and almost didn't make the playoffs. However, they proved themselves at the College World Series, winning the national championship without losing a single game. It was an impressive feat and a well-deserved victory for the Beavers.

Another amazing finish for the Beavers!

It was supposed to be a "rebuilding year".( They lost almost all of last year's starting players to graduation or the draft).

They struggled in conference play during the season going 10-14. (And thus become the first team to win the national championship with a losing conference record.)

They almost didn't make the play-offs at all, being the last team picked.

And yet, once they reached the College World Series, they took it all without losing a single game.

Way to go Beavs!
