?Three-Peat? No Easy Feat ? Throughout NCAA Division I Sports History

The South Carolina baseball progam’s quest for a third straight NCAA title caused us to dive into the record books for various college sports, seeking to gain historical perspective on how difficult it is to “three-peat” in different NCAA-sponsored sports. A summary of the basic findings follows below (we may pass along more later, particularly if the Gamecocks win tonight’s game-2 in the best-of-3 series): When looking only at the 16 “team-based” sports currently sponsored on the Division I level (baseball, men’s & women’s basketball, women’s field hockey, football, M & W ice hockey, M & W lacrosse, M & W soccer, softball, M & W volleyball, and M & W water polo) … (Essentially, the notes below illustrate that winning three straight NCAA titles, particularly in a team-based sport, is no easy feat …) ? A team has repeated as the outright national champion three (or more) consecutive years�in a team-based sport a total of only 29 times in these 16 sports. ? As we all know, USC is the only team ever to win three straight D-I baseball titles (5, 1970-74). ? In men’s basketball, UCLA is the only team ever to win three (or more) consecutive NCAA [...]

?Three-Peat? No Easy Feat ? Throughout NCAA Division I Sports History

The South Carolina baseball progam’s quest for a third straight NCAA title caused us to dive into the record books for various college sports, seeking to gain historical perspective on how difficult it is to “three-peat” in different NCAA-sponsored sports. A summary of the basic findings follows below (we may pass along more later, particularly if the Gamecocks win tonight’s game-2 in the best-of-3 series): When looking only at the 16 “team-based” sports currently sponsored on the Division I level (baseball, men’s & women’s basketball, women’s field hockey, football, M & W ice hockey, M & W lacrosse, M & W soccer, softball, M & W volleyball, and M & W water polo) … (Essentially, the notes below illustrate that winning three straight NCAA titles, particularly in a team-based sport, is no easy feat …) ? A team has repeated as the outright national champion three (or more) consecutive years�in a team-based sport a total of only 29 times in these 16 sports. ? As we all know, USC is the only team ever to win three straight D-I baseball titles (5, 1970-74). ? In men’s basketball, UCLA is the only team ever to win three (or more) consecutive NCAA [...]

Arizona Wins 2012 NCAA Championship

Wildcats Dethrone South Carolina… OMAHA, Neb. (6/25/12) ? For the first time during its 13-day stay in Omaha, the Arizona baseball team started a pitcher other than Kurt Heyer or Konner Wade … but the result was the same: another dominating performance on the mound and another win, for a Wildcats team that breezed through the 2012 NCAAs without a loss (10-0). Sophomore righthander James Farris ? making his first appearance in 22 days ? logged 7.2 strong innings while his teammates rallied to score three times in the top of the 9th, as Arizona beat two-time defending champion South Carolina, 4-1, to claim the school’s fourth NCAA baseball title on Monday night at TD Ameritrade Park. �front-page photo by CB360′s Pete LaFleur CLICK HERE for CB360′s postgame video page from Monday’s final game at the 2012 College World Series. 2012 CWS All-Tournament Team Catcher ?
