LSU baseball coach Jay Johnson faced Coastal Carolina in a national championship before 2025. Here's what to know:

On a hair dryer of a Sunday afternoon in the town that every June becomes de facto Baton Rouge North, the LSU Tigers didn't merely win a Men's College World Series national championship. Nor was it merely their eighth overall.

LSU knocked previously unbeaten Coastal Carolina ace Jacob Morrison out of the game with a four-run fourth inning and the Tigers won their second national championship in three years Sunday with a 5-3 victory in the College World Series finals.
