 OMAHA, Neb. (AP) - Oregon State's Jorge Reyes got himself and his team a whole lot closer to the national championship trophy that's been teasing him.
Forced to sit by it at a recent news conference, the Beavers' starter noted the hardware was placed just out of his reach. But he did his part to change that, pitching the Beavers to an 11-4 victory over North Carolina in Game 1 of the College World Series final on Saturday night.
"The trophy was right there, and I sure want it," the Oregon State freshman said. "Now I put our team one game closer to it."
