LSU is one win away from claiming its second national title in three seasons.
The Tigers, after last night’s masterpiece from Kade Anderson, will send out junior right-hander Anthony Eyanson, a transfer from UC San Diego who went 11-2 with a 2.92 ERA and 1.14 WHIP in his first season in Baton Rouge. Coastal Carolina, facing elimination for the first time in the 2025 postseason, is going with Jacob Morrison, the Chanticleers’ Friday night starter during the regular season. Morrison is 12-0 with a 2.08 ERA and 0.91 WHIP.
Last night’s matchup featured two former top recruits in Anderson (No. 130 in the Class of 2023) and Cameron Flukey (No. 128 in Class of 2023). Today, we have two former unheralded prospects who have developed into elite college players. Eyanson, a Southern California native, was ranked No. 507 among right-handed pitchers in the Class of 2022. Morrison, from Flushing, Mich., was the No. 202 right-hander in the same class.
