The Notre Dame Fighting Irish baseball team shocked the college baseball world by knocking off the ultra-talented and top ranked Tennessee Volunteers in the Super Regional to punch their ticket to Omaha. They looked destined for a deep run in the World Series after an opening round win over #9 Texas but were quickly brought down to earth. In the next two games they lost to fellow Cinderella Oklahoma 6-2 and #5 ranked Texas A&M 5-1.
