In order to remain in the double-elimination tournament, Louisville, which lost its CWS opener to Oregon State on June 13, will not only have to beat the Chanticleers on Wednesday, but would have to repeat the feat on Thursday to advance to the CWS championship series.
Coastal Carolina has yet to lose in the CWS, stretching its Division I-best win streak to 25 games. Coach Kevin Schnall’s team hasn’t lost since April 22.
