(BCSNN) — Coastal Carolina delivered a statement performance Sunday, defeating Oregon State 6–2 to remain unbeaten in the College World Series and claim the early lead in Bracket 1.

The Chanticleers, boasting a flawless 2–0 record in Omaha, improved to 55–11 on the season. They opened the CWS with a 7–4 victory over Arizona on Friday, extending a remarkable 24‐game winning streak (thescore.com). On Sunday, Coastal got off to a fast start, putting three runs on the board in the first inning, adding two more in the fourth, and another in the fifth to surge ahead for good .

Oregon State dropped to 1–1 in CWS play, opening with a dramatic 4–3 walk‐off win over Louisville on Friday before meeting the Chanticleers (en.wikipedia.org). The Beavers surged back to tie Louisville in the ninth but couldn’t hold off Coastal on Sunday. Their season record now stands at 48–15–1 (azdesertswarm.com).

Coastal’s depth was on full display. Early runs keyed the game, while relievers quelled any Beaver rallies. Though Oregon State’s Gavin Turley hit a late solo homer in the ninth, it merely provided finality, not hope (en.wikipedia.org).

For the Chanticleers, the win underscores their resurgence on the national stage. Their last College World Series appearance was a Cinderella run in 2016, when they shocked the baseball world en route to a national title (sports.yahoo.com). Their 6–2 record on the CWS all time is tied to that magical run, and this victory keeps them firmly in control of Bracket 1 with a spot in the best–of–three final series within their grasp (en.wikipedia.org).

Oregon State, on the other hand, must regroup quickly. The loss sends them into an elimination matchup with Louisville on Tuesday. A second straight loss would end their title hopes, but the Beavers have shown resilience, riding the momentum of their super‐regional comeback earlier in June (ncaa.com).

The path forward is clear: the Chanticleers need just one more win to secure the Bracket 1 finals, while Oregon State must win out to stay alive. Fans can expect the rematch to come Tuesday afternoon when Oregon State faces Louisville, with the winner earning the right to challenge Coastal Carolina in a March to the championship series .

With Coastal’s juggernaut season showing no signs of slowing and Oregon State’s back against the wall, Omaha is set for an electrifying week. The CWS bracket remains wide open — but for now, the Chanticleers are calling the shots.
