The eight teams in Omaha have combined for 74 appearances in the College World Series and 16 national championships.

OMAHA, NE ― Day 2 of the 2025 Men's College World Series saw powerhouse LSU move into the winners bracket while mid-major darlings Murray State will face elimination against Arkansas. The Tigers saw a strong start from Kade Anderson in a 4-1 win over the Razorbacks, while UCLA defeated the Racers, 6-4.

Coastal Carolina has cemented the 2025 season as the second-best campaign in program history, reaching the MCWS for the second-time ever after downing No. 4 Auburn, and has the potential to seize the top spot.

While this year's Men's College World Series field has no teams that made it to Omaha in 2024, there's a still a mix of teams with championship pedigree and programs making their first trip to Charles Schwab Field.

Sparked by a 4-run fourth, the 15th-seeded Bruins hang on 6-4 as the unseeded Racers chip away but come up short; UCLA gets No. 3 Arkansas or No. 6 LSU next.

From UCLA's star shortstop to an LSU pitcher who could go No. 1, here are the future major league stars to watch in Omaha.

Arkansas opened a 7-1 lead with a five-run fourth inning. Logan Maxwell hit a grand slam off AJ Russell, the Vols' third pitcher of the inning. The Razorbacks loaded the bases on singles by Cam Kozeal and Reese Robinett, followed by an intentional walk to Charles Davalan to set up a force play.
