OMAHA, NEBRASKA (Florida Gators) – Once again, Alex Faedo owned the night.

The junior ace pitched 7 1/3 scoreless innings and struck out 11 as the Gators beat TCU, 3-0, Saturday night to advance to the College World Series Championship Series for the third time in program history.

Florida (50-19) will face rival LSU for the title after the two schools shared the Southeastern Conference regular-season title this season.

Faedo and the Gators shut out TCU (50-18) for the second time this week by matching 3-0 scores. Entering the year, Florida had just one shutout in 35 College World Series games.

In the 2017 NCAA Tournament, Faedo has now pitched 27 1/3 innings with just one run allowed while striking out 44 batters. Faedo’s pair of 11-strikeout performances against TCU make him the fifth player in the last 30 seasons to hurl two 10-strikeout games in the CWS.
