Back-to-back. Oregon State won its second consecutive baseball national championship yesterday, defeating North Carolina in Omaha, 9-3. The Beavers were nothing short of dominant during this trip to Rosenblatt, winning their first three games to reach the championship series before taking two in a row from the Tar Heels. Oregon State is the first repeat champion in a decade and fifth overall.

VT student makes mark. Virginia Tech junior Drew Weaver won the British Amateur golf tournament on Saturday, becoming the first American to claim the title since 1979. The victory earned Weaver an invitation to next year???s British Open and Masters. The win brings a smile to the Blacksburg campus, which has had a number of dark days since 32 people were killed there in April. Weaver dedicated the victory to his fallen classmates and professors.

The biggest house. I???ve made it a goal of mine to see football games at Ohio State and Michigan within the next couple of years. As someone who has loved college sports for all of his life, it seems an absolute must for me to eat a hot dog and watch some football in those stadiums. I might be able to get a ticket at Michigan, now that the school???s Board of Regents approved a $226 million renovation. When the project is complete in 2010, the stadium will seat more than 108,000 people on football Saturdays.
