Gavin Turley hit a walk-off double to give his team a 4-3 win after the Beavers blew a two-run lead in the top of the ninth. Aiva Arquette, one of the top prospects for the 2025 MLB Draft, set it up with a one-out single, then motored first-to-home on Turley's line drive into left field.

A 92-year-old made the trek from San Diego to Omaha to watch Arizona, his alma mater, chase a College World Series title.

Arizona made it to Omaha all but one year from 1954-60 and won its three titles in the 1970s and 1980s across five CWS appearances. After missing it 17 consecutive times between 1987 and 2003, the Wildcats returned to the CWS in 2004, marking their first of five appearances this century. Four of those trips have come since 2012.

The College Baseball World Series continues on Saturday with UCLA taking on Murray State in Game 3 of their series.
