ICYMI: Game Winning Walk Off Infield Hit Sends Vandy to CWS

((ht: espn.com))

Imagine for a minute you play a sport or are part of the athletic department at a major SEC University  and your school has had exactly one appearance in an NCAA title game.

And the sport the title was won in: Bowling.

Now imagine the jubilation on the Nashville campus of Vanderbilt University after their baseball team won a berth in the College World Series baseball finals.

The Commodores punched their ticket with a 4-3 win over Texas Saturday night in 10 innings. The game was decided after Tyler Campbell beat out a bases loaded infield hit with 2 outs in the bottom of the 10th inning.

And the celebrating began...

The win sends Vandy into Monday's Best of 3 series with Virginia and gives the Commodores a shot at their 1st ever major sports National title.

Should make for some fun baseball:
