IRVINE, Calif. (AP) - Franco Valdes hit a go-ahead triple in the
sixth inning to help Virginia beat top-ranked UC Irvine 4-1 on
Sunday night and advance to the super regionals for the first time
in school history.
Virginia (46-12-1), which has made six straight postseason
appearances, allowed just two runs in 27 innings in winning all
three of its regional games. The Cavaliers will face Mississippi in
the Super Regional round.
UC Irvine (45-15) was denied a third straight trip to the super
regionals after being held to four hits by Andrew Carraway and
Kevin Arico.
Valdes, who had two RBIs, snapped a 1-1 tie in the sixth as his
sharp grounder hit the first-base bag and skipped past Cusick into
the right-field corner.
