From The ACC.com:

Eight teams begin competing for the College World Series championship in Omaha on Saturday, a quest that runs for nearly two weeks and will literally seem like a second season to the two teams that advance to play a deciding best-of-three title series.

But regardless of who emerges from the dogpile as NCAA Division I champion on June 29 or 30, they will be at least partially upstaged by the venue that showcases their achievement.

This is the curtain call for Johnny Rosenblatt Stadium, which is hosting its 61st CWS but will give way in 2011 to a new downtown stadium.

Its official, the Road to Omaha runs through the state of Florida.

The first annual Florida Four event was held yesterday, featuring the talents of Florida State University, the University of Florida, the University of Miami (FL), and the University of South Florida.

The event, which took place at the spring training home of the New York Yankees, kicked off with #10 Miami (6-1) cruising to a 15-2 win over South Florida (1-6).  The Canes wasted no time in lighting up the scoreboard either.  Posting multiple runs if 4-of-the-first-5 innings, four Hurricanes finished the game posting multiple RBIs including Michael Broad who went 2-for-4 with four RBIs.
