OMAHA, Neb. -- Coastal Carolina coach Gary Gilmore often said he just wanted his team to reach the College World Series.Until this week, he never imagined the Chanticleers would do so much more: Theyre heading back to Conway, South Carolina, with the schools first national championship in any sport.The Chanticleers defeated Arizona 4-3 in the deciding Game 3 of the College World Series finals on Thursday, capitalizing on two errors on the same play to score four unearned runs in the sixth inning of a game delayed a day by bad weather.It was worth the wait.Whenever I die, Ill know this group of guys here, they willed themselves to be the national champion, Gilmore said. It was just meant to be, no doubt. If there is such a thing as a team of destiny, this group is it.Coastal Carolina (55-18) became the first team since Minnesota in 1956 to win the title in its first CWS appearance. Arizona (49-24) was trying for its second national title since 2012 but came up just short in a season in which it was picked to finish ninth in the Pac-12.Amazing season, and theyre a deserving champion, first-year coach Jay Johnson said of the Chanticleers. We played as good as we possibly could this year, and theyre the best team weve played, in my opinion.Andrew Beckwith (15-1), the national leader in wins, went 5 2/3 innings after pitching two complete games and picked up his third victory of the CWS. He was named the Most Outstanding Player.Hes been coaching for 21 years, and he deserves every bit of it, Beckwith said of Gilmore. We got him to Omaha and we got him a national championship. The senior class, the hard work in the fall, the dedication of the guys who dont play much. It doesnt go unnoticed. It was a full team effort the whole College World Series, and we got it done.Alex Cunningham earned his first save, striking out Ryan Haug with a full-count fastball to end the game after Arizona had pulled within one in the bottom of the ninth. When Haug swung and missed, Cunningham turned to his dugout, beat his chest with his fist three times and saluted before flipping his glove away to start the celebration.The running joke is that in high school I lost the state championship three times in a row. I was not going to lose this one, I promise you that, Cunningham said.The championship was the first in a team sport in the 33-year history of the Big South Conference. The Big South could savor the accomplishment for only about eight hours. The Chanticleers become members of the Sun Belt Conference on Friday.This program has been a lot better than people give it credit for, Gilmore said. They thought we played in a small conference and couldnt get this done. This bunch wanted to prove everybody wrong.Arizona, which came into the day with just two errors in seven CWS games, saw second baseman Cody Ramer commit two on the same play in the sixth inning. He couldnt get a handle on a grounder, allowing David Parrett to score from third. Then Ramer tried to get Michael Paez running from second to third, but he overthrew Kyle Lewis. That allowed Paez to come home. G.K. Young then launched a no-doubt homer into the seats above the right-field bullpen for a 4-0 lead.Its the best feeling of my life, Young said. Im trying not to cry right now. Just dreaming of that in my head since I was 10 years old, hitting a home run in the College World Series. I never would have thought it would come in the championship game.The Wildcats cut the lead in half with two unearned runs in the bottom half of the sixth against a tiring Beckwith. Arizonas Bobby Dalbec (11-6) worked 5 2/3 innings, striking out eight to increase his CWS total to 26 in 20 2/3 innings.Arizonas first two batters in the bottom of the ninth reached base against Cunningham, and Gibbons sacrifice fly made it a one-run game with two outs. Ryan Aguilar then doubled into the left-field corner, but Ramer was held at third because Anthony Marks was able to get the ball back to the infield so quickly.Thats the play of the season in college baseball, Johnson said. We play aggressively, but Cody would have been out by 100 feet -- and I know its only 90 feet. I cant believe the play that was made.ARIZONA CATCHER HURTArizona catcher Cesar Salazar left the game at the end of the seventh inning after getting hit on the top of his head by Paezs bat on a swing-and-miss strike three. Salazar briefly lay face down and was tended to by an athletic trainer. He walked off under his own power and was replaced by Haug.ALL-CWS TEAMParrett, Coastal Carolina, catcher; Aguilar, Arizona, first base; Ramer, Arizona, second base; Zach Remillard, Coastal Carolina, third base; Ryan Merrill, TCU, shortstop; Gibbons, Arizona, outfield; Marks, Coastal Carolina, outfield; Jared Oliva, Arizona, outfield; Luken Baker, TCU, designated hitter; JC Cloney, Arizona, pitcher; Beckwith, Coastal Carolina, pitcher and Most Outstanding Player.COME ONE, COME ALLBecause of the noon start on a weekday -- caused by the rain-and-lightning postponement Wednesday night -- people attending the U.S. Olympic swim trials across the street at CenturyLink Center were admitted for free to the outfield seats. The game drew 18,823, raising tournament attendance to 341,667, the third-highest all-time.UP NEXTThe celebration of Coastal Carolinas first national championship in any team sport gets underway in Conway. The Wildcats return to Tucson to regroup after a season of low expectations ended with them playing for the title.---This story has been corrected to show that Bobby Dalbecs CWS strikeout total was 26 in 20 2/3 innings, not 25 in 20 innings.Cheap Chile Jerseys .

However, Ross Wallaces fortunate and controversial equaliser on 28 minutes took the sting out of Brightons rampant early charge.With this two-legged victory Wednesday have become just the second team in the last 11 Championships seasons to finish sixth and make the play-off final - the last three to get there have all gone onto win. In the final they will likely play Hull City, who hold a 3-0 first-leg advantage over Derby County. Sheffield Wednesday beat Brighton 3-1 on aggregate to book a Wembley date Brighton were given a huge boost at kick-off with two of their four men that limped off injured in the first-leg remarkably fit to start. Both Steve Sidwell and Anthony Knockaert took the field while Wednesday remained unchanged.Brighton needed a fast start if they had any hope of overturning the deficit and with Knockaert at the forefront, they swarmed all over the visitors.Kieren Westwood had to be quick off his line to block a Dunk effort after three minutes as Brighton were carrying an intensity that Wednesday didnt have to deal with at Hillsborough.Knockaert came within inches of the opening goal on 11 minutes but his immaculate 20-yard free-kick cannoned off the inside of the post and rolled to safety. Wednesday boss Carlos Carvalhal said his side will show fight in the final Brightons main man was it again minutes later, firing an effort inches wide before he missed an even better chance on 18 minutes.dddddddddddd A cross from the left had the Wednesday defence in all sorts of problems and Knockaert somehow managed to head wide at the back post from no more than six yards out.Brighton continued to knock at the Wednesday door and it opened a minute later. Knockaert delivered another pin-point free kick that was flicked on by Bruno and hammered home from close range by Dunk. Jiri Skalak of Brighton (left) and Jack Hunt of Sheffield Wednesday The Amex erupted and Wednesday looked shell-shocked. They needed some relief and they got it eight minutes later with an unlikely equaliser.Wallace found space on the right and checked back to whip a cross into the area with his left foot.Dunk and Hooper challenged for the ball but an apparent push on the defender from the striker meant they both missed it and it ended up bouncing into the far corner. The Brighton players claimed a foul but the referee allowed the goal to stand. Fernando Forestieri is chased by Lewis Dunk and Steve Sidwell Westwood was called into action again on 33 minutes as he gobbled up a close range effort from James Wilson, one of nine shots on target he had to deal with in the opening 45 minutes. After dominating the first half, Brighton could have found themselves behind at the break as Hooper was denied by a strong one-handed save by David Stockdale after a quick counter attack.Brightons first-half exertions took their toll in the second period as they ran out of gas. With Knockaert isolated on the left, Wednesday defended deep, soaked up their pressure and were a threat on the break. Brighton boss Chris Hughton said his players have been magnificent all season Barry Bannan tested Stockdale on 53 minutes with a tasty drive that the goalkeeper gathered at the second attempt before substitute Atdhe Nuhiu headed wide at the back post on 77 minutes.Brighton threw four men into attack for the final eight minutes and Dunk had an effort blocked by Westwood but Wednesday stood strong and booked their Wembley date on May 28.
