Tennessee recently won its first national championship in the Men’s College World Series, marking the Vols’ first CWS Finals appearance since 1951. They became the first No. 1 overall seed to win the national championship since 1999 and the first SEC team to achieve 60 wins in a single season. The Vols also won the SEC regular season title, SEC Tournament title, and the College World Series in the same year.
Head coach Tony Vitello secured his first national championship in his seventh season at Tennessee, marking his fifth NCAA Tournament appearance and the team’s third trip to Omaha in four seasons. Under Vitello, Tennessee has a 27-11 record in NCAA Tournament play, with his 27 wins tying the record set by Rod Delmonico, Tennessee’s all-time wins leader. Delmonico led the Vols to three College World Series appearances in his tenure.
