In the lead-up to the 2025 U.S. Open, USGA CEO Mike Whan said that Oakmont Country Club will provide ‘golf’s toughest test.’ He wasn’t lying. The notoriously challenging course in Pennsylvania will soon officially claim its first victims, including a pair of former champions that represent LIV Golf.

Fourteen LIV golfers were in the field when the third major of the year teed off on Thursday, but seemingly less than half will remain after the cut is made. (The cut line was projected at 7-over when play was suspended Friday.)

Defending champion Bryson DeChambeau (+10) and 2016 U.S. Open champion Dustin Johnson (+10), whose win came at Oakmont Country Club, are among the golfers that are likely done after 36 holes.

The U.S. Open remains the only major Phil Mickelson hasn’t won in his career and the title remains elusive; Mickelson sits at 8-over on the tournament. Mickelson, 54, has finished second at the U.S. Open a record six times.

The second round of the 2025 U.S. Open was suspended at 8:15 p.m. ET on Friday due to lighting in the area with a handful of golfers still on the course. The cut line won’t be finalized until the second round officially concludes Saturday. Play resumes at 7:30 a.m. ET.

If the cut line holds at 7-over, Jon Rahm and Brooks Koepka will be the only former U.S. Open champions from LIV still in contention. Rahm was crowned champion in 2021 after a win at Torrey Pines, while Koepka won back-to-back U.S. Open titles in 2017 and 2018 at Erin Hills and Shinnecock Hills, respectively.

Here’s a look at which LIV golfers made it into the weekend and who missed the cut:

Which LIV golfers will make the cut at the 2025 U.S. Open?

Six LIV golfers are likely remain in the field at the 2025 U.S. Open:

• Brooks Koepka: +2 (F)
• Tyrrell Hatton: +3 (F)
• Carlos Ortiz: +3 (F)
• Jon Rahm: +4 (F)
• Marc Leishman: +6 (F)
• Patrick Reed: +7 (F)

Which LIV golfers will miss the cut at the 2025 U.S. Open?

Eight LIV golfers likely won’t make the cut, which is projected at 7-over:

• Phil Mickelson: +8 (F)
• Cameron Smith: +8 (F)
• Jinichiro Kozuma: +9 (17)*
• Joaquin Niemann: +10 (F)
• Dustin Johnson: +10 (F)

It will be an early start for 13 U.S. Open competitors, who will be asked to finish out the second round on Saturday, June 14.

After the second round is finalized, the third round is expected to continue with Sam Burns and J.J. Spaun at the top of the leaderboard.

Burns took over the top spot at 3-under-par after Spaun stumbled in the second round, surrendering the lead he produced in the first round. Burns moved up 32 spots after shooting an impressive 5-under-par in the second round. Spaun is sitting in second on the leaderboard at -2 after shooting notching a 2-over second round. Viktor Hovland (-1 for the tournament), Adam Scott (Even) and Ben Griffin (Even) round out the top five.

Oregon State baseball snapped a seven-year College World Series drought by winning the Corvallis Super Regional, and continued its ‘road warrior’ mentality with an opening win in Omaha.

The eighth-seeded Beavers won in style against Louisville, walking off the Cardinals after giving up a ninth-inning lead to close down Day 1 of the 2025 CWS from Charles Schwab Field Omaha.

Following three scoreless innings, Oregon State jumped on the board first with a two-run fourth inning that started with a Trent Caraway single and Aiva Arquette to put two runners on. Gavin Turley, the eventual hero of the game, drove in the first run with a groundout to second. One batter later, Wilson Weber drove in another run with an RBI single to get Oregon State up 2-0.

The teams then traded a run in the sixth inning, followed by two more scoreless innings. Louisville managed to tie the game in the top of the ninth inning after Turley failed to make a diving grab in left field instead of fielding a base hit. That allowed Zion Rose to triple, immediately putting a runner in scoring position, which he did after a Tague Davis single to left center.

Another set of errors then allowed Alex Alicea to advance to third base and easily score off a single from Kamau Neighbors to tie the game 3-3 and send the game to the bottom of the ninth.

Oregon State’s nightmare was short-lived, however, with Arquette singling to center in the second at-bat of the inning, immediately followed by a Turley double to deep left field to score Arquette all the way from first. With that, the Beavers avoided a late-game collapse and advanced to 1-0 in the CWS.

Gavin Turley walks it off for Oregon State

Who else but Gavin Turley!

Turley lines one down the left field line to score Aiva Arquette from first for a walk-off double to defeat Louisville 4-3 at the College World Series.

Oregon State puts winning run on in ninth

Aiva Arquette smashes one into left center field for his third hit of the game. The game-winning run is now on base for the Beavers as Gavin Turley comes out to the plate with one out in the inning.

Oregon State gets out of jam

Louisville’s ninth inning rally comes to a close on a weak dribbler back to Kellen Oaks, who fires a fastball to first to retire Matt Klein. The Cardinals do their damage in the inning to keep the game going, as they tied the game on a hit up the middle from Kamau Neighbors after two costly errors from Oregon State.

The top of the lineup is coming up for the Beavers, who look to walk it off in the bottom of the ninth.

Louisville ties the game in ninth

A wacky top of the ninth inning in Omaha allows Louisville to tie the game at 3-3 on an RBI single up the middle from Kamau Neighbors.

The Cardinals were able to get a runner in scoring position at third after Alex Alicea reached on an error by Oregon State shortstop Aiva Arquette, who overthrew the play at first. Alicea then advanced to third on a throw into no-mans land by Wilson Weber.

Louisville has life for the first time tonight with the opportunity to take its first lead.

Wilson Weber throws out Tanner Shiver at second

A massive first out of the inning in the top of the ninth comes from Oregon State catcher Wilson Weber, as he throws out Louisville pinch runner Tanner Shiver at second.

Interesting decision there by Louisville to put the steal on with the tying run at first with no outs in the inning. During the umpire review, ESPN’s cameras showed Shiver saying he had a bad jump on the stolen base attempt.

Louisville gets within one of Oregon State

Here comes the Cards!

Tague Davis beats the shift with a single into right center field, allowing Zion Rose to score from third to make it a 3-2 Oregon State lead in the top of the ninth. A costly error from Gavin Turley comes to haunt the Beavers.

Zion Rose hits leads off triple in ninth

Zion Rose connects on the first pitch of the night from Kellan Oakes and it results in a leadoff triple after Oregon State left fielder Gavin Turley took the gamble and attempted to make the diving catch. A costly play there by Turley.

Kellan Oakes comes into pitch for Oregon State

The Beavers will go to Kellan Oakes for the final three outs in the top of the ninth.

Oregon State takes lead into ninth inning

Louisville reliever Jake Schweitzer catches Oregon runner Canon Reeder sleeping at first base for the pickoff. Nice quick tag by Tague Davis at first. Oregon State challenged the play but the call was confirmed.

The Beavers head into the ninth inning looking for the final three outs to pick up Win No. 1 in Omaha at the 2025 College World Series.

Louisville turns to Jake Schweitzer

Trailing 3-1 in the bottom of the eighth inning, Louisville turns to Jake Schweitzer to relieve Justin West on the mound.

He enters the game with a 2.13 ERA on the season with 20 strikeouts.

Tague Davis makes snagging play at first

It’s 3-1 Oregon State going into the eighth inning.

Louisville strands two runners

Louisville knocked on the door in the seventh inning with two runners in scoring position but was unable to bring any of them home as Lucas Moore chases an off-speed pitch in the dirt from Wyatt Queen for the third out of the seventh. A nasty pitch by Queen to get himself out of the jam.

It’s stretch time in Omaha with Oregon State leading 3-1.

Oregon State’s Wyatt Queen flashes leather

Wyatt Queen doesn’t have much time to settle himself into the game, as he busts off the mound to make an impressive play at first to retire Zion Rose. A really nice PFP play by Queen to start his night on the mound, as he comes in relief of Eric Segura.

Oregon State leaves bases loaded

Tip your cap, Justin West.

The Cardinals’ southpaw escapes the bases-loaded jam in the sixth inning by getting back-to-back punch outs against Carson McEntire and Trent Caraway. Real nice piece of pitching by West to get out of the jam, particularly after giving up an unearned run on Alex Alicea’s error at shortstop.

A tough blow for Oregon State, which is now 1 for 7 with runners in scoring position. It’s 3-1 Beavers going into the seventh.

Oregon State extends lead on Louisville error

Justin West draws up exactly what he wanted, but Louisville shortstop Alex Alicea bobbles the ball on what would have been an inning-ending 6-4-3 double play. Alicea’s error at short allows AJ Singer to score from third and keeps the bases loaded with one out for Oregon State. It’s now 3-1 Oregon State in the sixth inning.

Louisville turns to Justin West

Patrick Forbes’ night is done on the mound for Louisville after walking Jacob Krieg to load the bases with one out in the sixth inning. The Cardinals will now turn to left-hander Justin West.

Forbes was sharp for much of the night for the Cardinals as he struck out 10 through 5 1/3 innings. He is responsible for all three runners on base.

Oregon State knocking on door

The Beavers are knocking on the door in the bottom of the sixth inning after back-to-back one-out hits from AJ Singer and Tyce Peterson.

Louisville starter Patrick Forbes is nearing the 100-pitch mark on the mound. Oregon State is 1 for 4 with runners in scoring position.

Eric Segura gets out of jam

Eric Segura comes up big for Oregon State as he gets out of the jam. Facing runners on second and third with one out after throwing a pitch to the backstop, Segura answers back by getting Eddie King Jr. to strike out and Garret Pike to pop up in foul territory behind home plate to Wilson Weber.

Oregon State takes a 2-1 lead into the bottom of the sixth against Louisville.

Louisville gets on the board

Eric Segura gets Jake Munroe to roll one to shortstop but Aiva Arquette can’t come up with the ball, allowing Kamau Neighbors to score and Munroe to reach first.

It’s now 2-1 Oregon State in the top of the sixth.

Oregon State makes pitching change

Oregon State makes a surprising call to the bullpen as Dax Whiney hits a roadblock in the top of the sixth inning after Louisville puts two runners into scoring position with one out. It will be Eric Segura who is summoned from the bullpen for the Beavers.

Whitney cruised through his first four innings in his first CWS start before losing some gas in the last two. He finished the night with nine strikeouts.

Louisville building momentum on offense

The Cardinals have some life on offense for the first time on the night as Kamau Neighbors works a walk and Moore singles over the head of Aiva Arquette into left field.

Matt Klein would then advance both runners into scoring position with a groundout to first. Runners on second and third with one out for Louisville coming up in the sixth inning.

Oregon State strands two runners

Oregon State takes a 2-0 lead into the sixth inning vs. Louisville, but leaves two runners on base in the fifth.

Patrick Forbes has kept the Cardinals in the game after giving up two runs in the fourth inning, but Louisville is going to need some offense if it wants a shot at advancing in the winners’ bracket. Louisville has just two hits through the first five innings in Omaha.

Oregon State adds another run in fourth inning

The Beavers aren’t done scoring in the fourth inning.

Wilson Weber singles through the right side of the diamond, allowing Aiva Arquette to score from third. It’s 2-0 Oregon State over Louisville going into the fifth inning.

Oregon State takes early lead in fourth inning

Oregon State is the first to strike in Omaha, as Gavin Hurley hit one to shortstop for an RBI groundout.

The Beavers got the scoring going with back-to-back singles from Trent Caraway and Aiva Arquette. Both runners would then move up a base on a wild pitch to the backstop from Louisville pitcher Patrick Forbes. Turley’s RBI breaks Oregon State coach Mitch Canham’s program record for most RBIs in a single postseason. Canham was part of Oregon State’s back-to-back national championship teams in 2006 and 2007.

Louisville leaves two runners on

Dax Whitney gets himself out of his first jam of the night by getting Garret Pike to chase a 95 mph fastball for strike three and the third out of the inning.

After not getting through Whitney in the first three innings, Louisville had some momentum in the fourth with back-to-back two-out singles from Jake Munroe and Eddie King Jr. off Whitney. A missed opportunity for the Cardinals.

Jake Munroe breaks up Dax Whitney’s perfect game

Louisville third baseman Jake Munroe breaks up Dax Whitney’s perfect game attempt with a single through the left side of the field in the top of the fourth. It’s the first hit and baserunner of the night for the Cardinals.

Before giving up a two-out single to Munroe, Whitney was rolling for the Beavers on the mound as he struck out seven of his first 10 hitters while throwing 70% of his pitches for a strike.

Oregon State, Louisville scoreless after three innings

It’s all knotted up at 0-0 between Oregon State and Louisville after three innings in Omaha.

After two and a half innings with no baserunners, Oregon State first baseman Jacob Krieg was the game’s first runner after being hit by a pitch. Louisville first baseman Tague Davis, the son of former MLB catcher Ben Davis, then made a nice play at first base to complete the 4-6-3 double play to retire Krieg and Canon Reeder.

Dax Whitney strikes out side in second inning

Good morning, good afternoon, good night! Dax Whitney is feeling it on the mound as he strikes out the side in the top of the second inning. He has now struck out five of the first Louisville batters he has faced.

The Beavers’ freshman ace has done a nice job through the first two innings of mixing in his pitches during at-bats with speed and placement. It’s 0-0 between Oregon State and Louisville going into the home half of the second.

Oregon State, Louisville scoreless after first inning

Both teams go down in order 1-2-3 in their halves of the first inning. Oregon State pitcher Dax Whitney and Louisville pitcher Patrick Forbes each have a pair of strikeouts to start their nights on the bump.

Is the College World Series double elimination?

Yes, the College World Series is double elimination in bracket play until the start of the best-of-three CWS finals.

Each team starts at a 0-0 record and is guaranteed at least two tournament games. Similar to the regional tournament format, the winner continues in the winner’s bracket, while the loser fends off elimination until a winner emerges from the bracket.

If a team loses two games in either the double elimination or championship series portions of the CWS, they are eliminated.

Dax Whitney opens CWS career with back-to-back strikeouts

Not a bad first impression in Omaha for Oregon State freshman pitcher Dax Whitney, as he retires Lucas Moore and Matt Klein on back-to-back strikeouts.

Two outs in the top of the first inning for the Beavers.

Oregon State, Louisville arrive at CWS

The Beavers and the Cardinals have arrived at Charles Schwab Field Omaha for their CWS game. It is the first time both teams are facing each other since the 2013 College World Series.

How did Louisville make College World Series?

The Cardinals’ appearance at the 2025 College World Series has come by way of catching some last-season fire.

Louisville began its road to Omaha by sweeping its way through the Nashville Regional, which included a second-round win over top overall seed Vanderbilt. The Cardinals would secure their first regional title since 2022 with a 6-0 shutout win over Wright State.

Dan McDonnell’s squad would then take two of three games in the Louisville Super Regional against their ACC foe, Miami. The Cardinals’ super regional win over the Hurricanes sent them back to Omaha for the sixth time in program history and the first time since 2019. 

How did Oregon State make College World Series?

The Beavers advanced to the College World Series for the first time since winning it all in 2018 by taking two of three games in the Corvallis Super Regional against No. 9 Florida State. Oregon State also played itself out of the ‘elimination bracket’ of the Corvallis Regional to advance out of the first weekend.

Oregon State’s appearance in Omaha is a bit of a historic one, as it comes as an independent. The Beavers are the first independent to make the eight-team CWS field since Miami in 2004.

Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark is set to make her highly-anticipated return to the court.

Clark has been cleared to return to the lineup after a left quad injury kept her sidelined for five games, officially ending her longest stretch missed due to injury in her collegiate or WNBA career. The Fever made the announcement on the team’s social media accounts Friday, June 13.

Clark suffered the quad injury during the Fever’s 90-88 loss to the New York Liberty on May 24. She was initially ruled out for at least two weeks, setting up her tentative return on June 10 against the Atlanta Dream, but the Fever ultimately decided to err on the side of caution with the 2024 WNBA Rookie of the Year.

Now, Clark is ready to play. She will suit up on June 14 as the Fever host the reigning champion Liberty. Indiana is getting back its leader in scoring (19 points per game) and assists (9.3); her assists per game average leads the league.

The Fever went 2-3 in Clark’s absence and have a 4-5 record this season entering the game against New York.

Here’s everything we know about Clark’s injury and her return:

Is Caitlin Clark playing vs. Liberty on Saturday?

Yes. The Fever announced Clark will play in Indiana’s matchup against the New York Liberty following a five-game absence due to a left quad injury.

Caitlin Clark injury update: What happened?

Clark is sure she suffered the left quad strain during the Fever’s loss to the Liberty on May 24 — where she recorded a double-double with 18 points and 10 assists — but she can’t pinpoint a specific play that caused her injury. She only knows that it happened early on in the contest.

“Obviously, adrenaline covers up a lot of stuff when you’re in the heat of battle,” Clark said on Thursday. “And after the game, I had some pain, and then we got an MRI, and that kind of gave me the result that I didn’t want to see. But, you know, those types of things don’t lie.”

On June 5, Clark said she’s ‘made a lot of progress’ in her recovery and ‘feels good.’ However, the star guard said she’s ‘not going to rush back if it’s not worth it,’ despite being inpatient to get back on the court. She described her status as ‘day-to-day’ and said she was will undergo a reevaluation.

What’s Caitlin Clark been up to?

Although Clark hasn’t been able to take the court, the Iowa alum has kept herself busy and engaged with her team. She’s been a vocal leader on the bench and has tapped into the ‘coaching kind of mindset,” Fever coach Stephanie White previously said, to sharpen and hone her skills.

Clark also cheered on her NBA counterparts, the Indiana Pacers, in the NBA Finals alongside her Fever teammates. She attended Game 3 of the NBA Finals and the Pacers’ Game 6 win over the Knicks to clinch the Eastern Conference Finals, both at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.

Caitlin Clark stats

Clark leads the WNBA in assists per game to start the 2025 season. Here’s a look at the 2024 Rookie of the Year’s full stats (per game):

• Games played: 4
• Minutes: 35
• Points: 19
• Rebounds: 6
• Assists: 9.3
• Steals: 1.3

The Las Vegas Aces have their first two-game losing streak of the season and are looking to get back on track on Friday, June 13, at home against the Dallas Wings.

They’ll have to do it without their best player.

The team says three-team MVP A’ja Wilson will not play Friday night after being placed in concussion protocol. Wilson sustained the concussion on June 11 against the Los Angeles Sparks when defending against a drive by Dearica Hamby.

Wilson left the game with 1:17 left in the third quarter and did not return.

Aces coach Becky Hammon said after the game that Wilson would need to see a doctor for evaluation. After that evaluation, she has been placed in concussion protocol.

Wilson leads the team in minutes, points, rebounds, assists, blocks and steals per game.

The Wings have struggled this season despite the arrival of No. 1 overall pick Paige Bueckers and sit at 1-10 entering Friday’s game.

The Aces are looking for their first home win of the month against Dallas. They’ll have another shot at it on Sunday, June 15, against the Phoenix Mercury.

That streak continued against the Wildcats.

The No. 13 nationally seeded Chanticleers defeated Arizona 7-4 at Charles Schwab Field Omaha on Friday, with Coastal Carolina even saving ace pitcher Jacob Morrison for its next game against the winner of Oregon State-Louisville on June 15.

Second baseman Blake Barthol was the hero of the opening-round game, going 3 for 5 at the plate with two doubles and two RBIs. Barthol’s biggest hit came in the bottom of the eighth inning, as his two-out double scored two runs, extending Coastal Carolina’s lead to 7-4.

The Chanticleers paired their Saturday and Sunday starters, Riley Eikhoff and Cameron Flukey, for nearly the entire game. They combined for eight innings, allowing four earned runs on eight hits with seven strikeouts. Dominick Carbone then earned the save in the ninth inning.

Now on a 24-game win streak, Coastal Carolina can reach the CWS semifinals with a win in its next game. Here are the highlights from the Chanticleers’ win:

Coastal Carolina vs Arizona baseball updates

Coastal Carolina wins it

Dominick Carbone gets a strikeout before getting a game-ending groundball that’s turned into a double play. Coastal Carolina wins it 7-4, moving into the winner’s bracket.

Coastal Carolina switching pitchers

Coastal Carolina is turning to Dominick Carbone, who might be asked to get the final three outs after Cameron Flukey allows a leadoff double.

Carbone, a left-hander, has a 2.61 ERA in 38 innings pitched this season.

Blake Barthol opens the scoring

Coastal Carolina’s two-out rally continues, as Blake Barthol ropes a two-RBI double to extend the Chanticleers’ lead to 7-4 in the bottom of the eighth. Barthol’s double came off Arizona closer Tony Pluta.

Coastal Carolina takes lead after 2-out rally

Coastal Carolina’s Wells Sykes hits a double down the right-field line with two outs, before Arizona intentionally walks Chanticleers leadoff hitter Caden Bodine. Sebastian Alexander, who has three strikeouts on the day, then bloops a single to center field to give Coastal Carolina a 5-4 lead in the bottom of the eighth inning.

Alexander comes up big after Sykes’ double to start the rally.

Garrett Hicks shuts door for Arizona

Garrett Hicks enters for Arizona with a runner on third base and one out and picks up two huge strikeouts to get out of the bottom of the seventh inning with the score still tied at 4-4. Hicks only needs six pitches to rack out two strikeouts.

Blake Barthol hits leadoff double

Coastal Carolina’s Blake Barthol hits a leadoff double to start the bottom of the seventh, which marks the Chanticleers’ first extra-base hit of the day. Barthol’s hit just barely stayed fair down the right-field line.

Coastal Carolina quickly ties game

Dean Mihos leads off the inning with a single, then advances to second base on a wild pitch. Mihos then advances to third and eventually home on a pair of groundouts by Wells Sykes and Caden Bodine.

Arizona-Coastal Carolina is tied at 4-4.

Arizona turns to Casey Hintz

Owen Kramkowski’s day is over, and Arizona turns to sidearm reliever Casey Hintz in the bottom of the sixth inning. Hintz has a 5.53 ERA in 53 2/3 innings pitched this season.

Kramkowski’s final line: Three earned runs on nine hits and a walk with seven strikeouts across five innings.

Coastal Carolina strands two runners

Arizona takes a 4-3 lead despite not hitting a ball past the infield, as Cameron Flukey hits three batters in the top of the sixth inning. Flukey gets a strikeout and a groundout to get out of the frame.

Coastal Carolina is going to need its offense to get rolling again.

Arizona takes 4-3 lead

Garen Caulfield hits a groundball to second base, but Coastal Carolina is unable to get the lead runner at home or turn the double play, resulting in one out at second base.

Arizona now leads 4-3 with one out and runners on first and third in the top of the sixth inning.

Arizona ties it

Cameron Flukey hits another batter, which scores Aaron Walton from third base to make the score 3-3. Flukey’s off-speed pitch just got away from him, narrowly hitting Maddox Mihalakis’ back foot.

Arizona loads bases

Adonys Guzman surprises Coastal Carolina, laying down a bunt and it sneaks past the pitcher for a single. Arizona has the bases loaded with no outs for Maddox Mihalakis.

Arizona with runners on first and second

Arizona puts back-to-back runners on base to start the top of the sixth inning after Cameron Flukey hits both batters with a pitch. The Wildcats have no outs and still trail 3-2 but are looking to do some damage here with 4-hole hitter Adonys Guzman coming up to bat.

Coastal Carolina regains lead

Blagen Pado’s single scores Blake Barthol from third base, giving Coastal Carolina a 3-2 lead in the bottom of the fifth inning. The Chanticleers have done a nice job of putting runners in scoring spots, as Barthol stole second base before tagging and advancing to third base on a flyout in the frame.

Pado’s groundball single would’ve likely been right to the Arizona second baseman, but the defender was covering second base as Walker Mitchell was attempting to steal second base.

Cameron Flukey makes quick work of Arizona

Cameron Flukey has no issues in the fifth inning, retiring Arizona in order on 10 pitches. Flukey’s fastball was up to 97 mph in the inning.

Coastal Carolina turns to Cameron Flukey

Riley Eikhoff’s day is done after four innings of work, as Coastal Carolina turns to Cameron Flukey in relief. Flukey, a weekend starter for the Chanticleers, has a 3.24 ERA this season and is making his first relief appearance of the year.

Eikhoff finishes the day allowing two runs on six hits with four strikeouts, throwing 45 pitches.

Arizona ties it

The Wildcats get back-to-back doubles from Adonys Guzman and Maddox Mihalakis, who scores Guzman to tie the game at 2-2 in the top of the fourth inning. Arizona is starting to get to Riley Eikhoff.

Mason White homers

Arizona gets on the board in the top of the fourth inning, as shortstop Mason White sneaks a home run just over the left-field fence for his 20th of the season.

Coastal Carolina left fielder Sebastian Alexander nearly robbed the home run, but his glove was just short.

Coastal Carolina goes down in order

Owen Kramkowski puts together a strong inning, as he sits down Coastal Carolina in order, picking up another strikeout. Kramkowski has allowed two runs on five hits with four strikeouts through three innings.

Riley Eikhoff strands runner

Riley Eikhoff allows a one-out double off the left-field wall, but gets out of the inning unscathed, stranding the runner at second base. Eikhoff has allowed three hits and no walks with three strikeouts through three innings so far, only throwing 30 pitches.

Coastal plates 2 runs

How about the 9-hole hitter? Wells Sykes drills a two-RBI single to left field to score two runs for Coastal Carolina, giving it a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the second inning.

Coastal Carolina loads bases

Coastal Carolina with some success in the second inning, with back-to-back singles from Colby Thorndyke and Blagen Pado to start the frame. Ty Dooley then pops up to the pitcher right near the foul line, but Owen Kramkowski dives and can’t haul in the catch, loading the bases with no outs.

Short inning for Coastal Carolina

Riley Eikhoff faces the minimum three hitters, as he allows a leadoff single before getting a strikeout and a groundout, with the latter turning into a double play.

Eikhoff has thrown 16 pitches through two innings, 14 of which were strikes.

Coastal Carolina-Arizona scoreless after first

Owen Kramkowski strands a runner at second after getting a strikeout and flyout to end the first inning. Kramkowski’s numbers this season aren’t eye-popping (5.48 ERA), but his slider and two-seam fastball were quite effective in the frame.

Coastal Carolina with runner in scoring position

Catcher Caden Bodine lines a leadoff single to right field before Sebastian Alexander’s sacrifice bunt moves Bodine to second base with one out.

Coastal Carolina with an early scoring opportunity here after playing some small ball.

Nothing doing for Arizona

Brendan Summerhill hits a leadoff single, but Coastal Carolina starter Riley Eikhoff gets a strikeout and a flyout before catcher Caden Bodine throws out Summerhill on a steal attempt to end the inning.

Eikhoff is filling up the zone and having success with all three of his pitches early.

CWS is underway

Riley Eikhoff fires the first pitch and Coastal Carolina-Arizona is underway at the College World Series. Here we go.

Tennessee softball coach Karen Weekly on June 13 voiced her opinion against tampering in the NCAA transfer portal — and how teams have used NIL to land players.

‘I think we can all agree on 2 things: 1) women making money in sports is awesome and long overdue; 2) contacting players (directly or indirectly) before their season ends and signing them to NIL deals before they enter the portal is wrong,’ Weekly wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

‘Money isn’t the issue — tampering is!’

Weekly did not call out any specific team or reference any specific player, though her post did come less than 24 hours after Texas Tech softball and Gerry Glasco landed a commitment Lady Vols third baseman Taylor Pannell.

The All-American announced she was transferring to Texas Tech after entering the portal that same day. Pannell had a career season in 64 games this season for Tennessee. Named to the All-SEC First Team selection, she finished with a career-best .398 batting average with 74 hits, 65 RBIs and 16 home runs.

Weekly’s comments also come at a time that Texas Tech has been active in the transfer portal since losing to No. 6 Texas in Game 3 of the WCWS championship series on June 6. Texas Tech has landed Ohio State starting catcher Jasmyn Burns, UCLA pitcher Kaitlyn Terry, Florida All-American Mia Williams and former Southern Illinois standout infielder Jackie Lis.

Texas Tech officially announced the additions of Williams, Terry and Lis on June 13. In total, Texas Tech has added three All-Americans and three of On3’s top 10 players in the transfer portal to its 2026 roster to pair with star ace NiJaree Canady.

As noted by Knox News, part of the USA TODAY Network, Texas Tech will reportedly pay its players $55 million among all its programs next year between revenue sharing and NIL. The Red Raiders’ NIL collective, The Matador Club, has not been shy about committing money to softball in the last year, which is considered by many to be a non-revenue sport.

Canady single-handedly pitched Texas Tech to its first-ever WCWS and WCWS finals appearances this year. She re-signed with the Red Raiders ahead of Game 3 vs. Texas on another lucrative, record-breaking NIL deal. According to ESPN, Canady’s new NIL deal is another seven-figure NIL deal for the upcoming 2026 season, while On3’s Pete Nakos reported it is worth at least $1.2 million.

Tennessee finished 47-17 overall on the season and advanced to the WCWS semifinals in Weekly’s 24th season at the helm of the program.

Mason Howell, the youngest player in the 125th U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club, won’t be playing the weekend, but he proved he belonged in the 156-player field.

The 17-year-old from Thomasville, Georgia, hovered around the cut line for more than half of the second round before ultimately being undone by a string of bogeys. Howell was in the middle of his final hole when second-round play was suspended because of lightning in the area. Howell had shot a +5 on the day and was sitting at 12-over for the tournament, with the projected cut sitting at +7.

Still, the incoming high senior recorded a better round than reigning U.S. Open champion Bryson DeChambeau, who shot 7-over in the second round and missed the cut with a +10 for the tournament. Howell also carded the same score over two days as two-time major winner Justin Thomas and finished better than three-time major winner Justin Rose, who finished 14-over for the tournament.

After a par on his opening hole of the second round, Howell knocked in a birdie on hole No. 2 and followed with some tough par saves. But things started to unravel on the seventh hole, which began a string of four bogeys in six holes. He recorded an impressive birdie on No. 14, but he followed that up with three consecutive birdies to push him well below the projected cut line.

Howell, who gained a berth in the 2025 U.S. Open by tying for first at the qualifying tournament in Atlanta, has much to look forward to: his senior year at Brookwood School, where he will seek another state title, before heading to the University of Georgia in 2026 to play golf for the Bulldogs.

USA TODAY Sports followed Howell’s second round at the U.S. Open. Scroll below for a full recap:

Mason Howell US Open score, results

Mason Howell shot a 7-over-par 77 in the first round, hovering right around the cut line. Keep track of his second-round scores here.

Howell doesn’t finish final hole as round is suspended

The second round of the 2025 U.S. Open was suspended due to lightning in the area, with Howell still needing to finish his final hole. Howell had played his second shot, an approach from the primary rough on the par 4, 498-yard 18th hole, onto the fairway, leaving him 103 yards to the hole. Howell was among a handful of golfers who could not finish the round due to weather.

Mason Howell cards third consecutive bogey

The final hour of Howell’s stay at Oakmont has not gone well. He recorded his third consecutive bogey, carding a 5 on the par 4, 305-yard 17th hole. Howell dropped to 5-over for the round and +12 for the tournament with one hole remaining.

Mason Howell records bogey on hole No. 16

The dream of playing the weekend in the U.S. Open basically came to an end for Howell after a bogey on the par 3, 238-yard 16th hole. That bogey dropped the incoming high school senior to 4-over for the round and +11 for the tournament with two holes remaining and the projected cut still sitting at +7.

Mason Howell drops another shot after bogey on hole No. 15

One hole after an impressive birdie, Howell recorded his fifth bogey of the day on the par 4, 489-yard 15th hole to drop back to +10 for the tournament and +3 for the round. With the projected cut at +7, Howell would need to birdie each of his three remaining holes.

Mason Howell bounces back with birdie on hole No. 14

After recording a par on the par 3, 161-yard 13th hole, Howell scored just his second birdie of the day on the 14th. Howell’s second shot from the fairway on the 368-yard, par 4 hole landed just three feet from the cup, and he tapped in for his first birdie since hole No. 2. Howell now stands at +2 for the round and +9 for the tournament. The projected cut remains at +7.

Bogeys piling up for Mason Howell

After recording a par on the 406-yard, par 4 11th hole, Howell found immediate trouble on the 12th hole. His tee shot on the par 5, 647-yard hole landed in the intermediate rough, and his second shot traveled just 33 feet into the primary rough. His third shot put him back on the fairway, and his fourth landed on the green, but he could not connect on a 36-yard par putt. He tapped in for yet another bogey – his fourth in six holes – dropping him to 3-over for round and +10 for the tournament.

Mason Howell bogeys again as struggles continue

Howell recorded his third bogey in the past four holes as he began his back nine. Howell could not save par on the 10th hole and had to tap in for bogey on the par 4, 472-yard 10th hole. That dropped him to +9 for the tournament (+2 for the round) and below the cut line, which has been fluctuating from +7 to +8.

Mason Howell drops another shot on hole No. 9

Howell, who was sitting right on the cut line at +7, but he dropped another shot after a bogey on the par 4, 465-yard ninth hole. It was his second bogey of the day and second in three holes. He nearly made another impressive par save, but his fourth shot came up just inches from the hole. The bogey drops him to +1 for round and +8 for the tournament, one stoke over the projected cut.

Mason Howell saves par again on hole No. 8

Another erroneous tee shot on the par 3 eighth hole left Howell in danger of dropping another stroke, but he followed that up with a brilliant second shot from the immediate rough to leave himself a 6-foot putt for par. Howell connected to remain at Even for the round and +7 for the tournament, right on the cut line.

Mason Howell in danger of missing cut

Howell hit an erroneous tee shot on the par 4, seventh hole which landed in the left bunker. But the 17-year-old nearly made a miraculous par when his nearly 49-yard putt stopped just inches before the hole. He settled for a tap-in bogey and dropped to +7 for the tournament and even on the day.

Mason Howell saves par on hole No. 6

On the par 3, 192-yard sixth hole, Howell’s tee shot landed in the rough, leaving him in a perilous position to get up and down. His second shot left him roughly 9 feet from the hole, but he sank the ensuing par putt to remain at +6 for the tournament. The current projected cut line is +7.

Mason Howell knocks in another par

Howell came up just short on a 21-foot, 6-inch putt for birdie on the 420-yard, par 4 fifth hole, but he knocked in a 3-foot par putt to remain -1 for the day and +6 for the tournament.

Mason Howell holds steady at hole No. 4

Howell missed a prime opportunity for a birdie at the par-5 fourth hole, holding steady at 6-over. Howell tapped in for par after his fourth shot left him a couple of feet from the hole.

Mason Howell pars hole No. 3

Howell remains at 6-over for the tournament after getting up and down on the par 4, 454-yard third hole.

Mason Howell birdies hole No. 2

Howell began with a par on his opening hole of the second round. He followed that up with a birdie on the par 4, 359-yard second hole to move to 6-over.

OMAHA, Neb. ― Eight teams remain in college baseball as Arizona, Arkansas, Coastal Carolina, Louisville, LSU, Murray State, Oregon State and UCLA vie for the national title at the 2025 College World Series at Charles Schwab Field beginning June 13.

Already, this group is making history. It’s the first time since 1957 that there will be no repeat trips to Omaha, as none of the eight teams that made it in 2024 are back this season. In fact, two teams that went to the CWS a year ago didn’t even qualify for the postseason in 2025.

Both Mitch Canham of Oregon State and Chip Hale of Arizona previously won national titles with the schools they currently coach. Both are vying to become the third person to ever win national titles as both a player and coach and the second to ever do both with the same school.

Here’s one storyline for each team you may not know:

Arizona: Chip Hale looking to add to his accolades

Hale has a lot of experience with World Series of all sorts. He won a title as a player with the Wildcats in 1986 and he was on the coaching staff of the 2019 Washington Nationals team that won the World Series. Though he never won an MLB World Series as a player, he was in Triple-A with the Minnesota Twins when they won it all in 1991.

By adding on a College World Series title as a coach, Hale could become uniquely decorated across levels of baseball.

CWS FIELD: Ranking the eight teams fighting for title in Omaha

DIVERSE FIELD: College World Series highlights best of college sports

Arkansas: Why history favors the Razorbacks

College baseball has seen a funny trend over the past half-decade: the last five College World Series championships have been won by five different SEC teams. Three of those teams (Mississippi State in 2021, Mississippi in 2022 and Tennessee in 2024) won their school’s first-ever baseball titles.

If history holds, that leaves Arkansas as the last team standing. The Razorbacks are one of two SEC teams in Omaha, and the other is LSU, which just won two years ago. Arkansas is currently fourth in the country in most CWS appearances without a title, and if the Razorbacks’ 12th attempt in 2025 proves fruitless, they will move into a tie for second.

Coastal Carolina: Kevin Schnall in rare territory

Kevin Schnall is in his first year as Coastal Carolina’s head coach after the retirement of longtime coach Gary Gilmore. A first-year head coach has never won the national title; the closest was LSU’s Jay Johnson, who won in his second season in 2023. But Johnson had been a head coach before and had previously led Arizona to Omaha. Schnall had never been a head coach at any level before taking over the Chanticleers.

Louisville: Tague Davis chasing history

Louisville first baseman Tague Davis has hit 18 home runs this season, already well surpassing the program’s freshman home run record of 15. But Davis could go one step further. He’s currently third nationwide in freshman home runs, but he’s just two behind the leader, Loyola Marymount’s Nate Savoie. Davis is the only freshman with double-digit home runs still playing, and he can tie Savoie’s mark with two homers or secure the national lead with three.

LSU: National champions return

Two players recorded at least 100 plate appearances for both the 2023 LSU team that won the national title and the 2025 team: Jared Jones and Josh Pearson.

Jones started 47 games in 2023 but played only a minor role in Omaha, recording three at-bats. Pearson started all eight of LSU’s games in Omaha and hit .115. but he did contribute one home run and drew eight walks.

The pitching staff is entirely new, though. Of the 17 pitchers who recorded an inning for the 2023 Tigers, only Chase Shores has seen any action in 2025.

Murray State: The first-time participant

Murray State, which won both the Oxford Regional and the Durham Super Regional as the No. 4 seed, is making its first-ever appearance in Omaha. Just four other teams have made their first-ever trip to the College World Series in the last decade: UC Santa Barbara and Coastal Carolina in 2016, Washington in 2018 and Kentucky in 2024.

It’s worth noting that not only are the Chanticleers making their second-ever Omaha appearance along with Murray State in 2025, but they won the national title during their first appearance in 2016.

Oregon State: An independent season

With Pac-12 baseball dormant, Oregon State became an independent for the 2025 season. It’s rarely done, but the last team to compete as an independent had a lot of success. Miami won four national titles and was runner-up two other times as an independent.

No other high-level college baseball team has been with out a conference since the Hurricanes joined the ACC in 2004.

UCLA: Back after a break

Among the teams in Omaha that have been there before, UCLA is the one that’s waited the longest to get back. The Bruins won a national title in 2013, but they haven’t made the trip since. That includes losing two different times as the No. 1 overall seed, in 2015 and 2019.

UCLA has had a tough time post-COVID, failing to qualify for a regional in both 2023 and 2024. But the Bruins are finally back, and they become the first Big Ten team to go to Omaha since the Michigan team that eliminated them in 2019.
