who won the college world series in 2016
2016 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament With each team winning a game in the championship series to force a winner-take-all Game 3, the tournament reached the maximum of 17 games for the first time since 2003 when the finals expanded to best-of-three format (as opposed to a single, winner-take-all championship game).[5] Coastal Carolina won the deciding game, 4-3, becoming the first team since 1956 to win the title in its first CWS appearance.[6] Coastal Carolina won six elimination games in NCAA post-season play – one in a Regional, three in the CWS double-elimination bracket, and two in the Championship Series.[7] The runner-up, Arizona, won six elimination games – three in a Regional and three in the CWS double-elimination bracket, but lost their 7th, the last game of the Championship Series.[8]
