BATON ROUGE, La. – The West Virginia University baseball team saw its season come to an end on Sunday as the Mountaineers fell to No. 6 LSU, 12-5, in the NCAA Super Regionals at Alex Box Stadium. WVU finishes the season with a 44-16 overall record.

Juniors Sam White and Ben Lumsden each hit home runs for the Mountaineers and drove in two. Senior Jace Rinehart added his ninth home run of the season as well.

On the mound, graduate Jack Kartsonas suffered the loss with six runs allowed in 2.0 innings. Sophomore Chase Meyer had four strikeouts in 4.0 innings while junior Ben McDougal tossed 2.1 hitless innings.

The Tigers scored a run in the first to take an early lead before adding five in the second to go up 6-0 after two innings.

In the fourth, White got the Mountaineers on the board with a solo home run before Lumsden added a two-run shot a couple of batters later. White got West Virginia within two in the fifth with an RBI single.

WVU's defense failed them in the seventh with three errors as LSU scored six runs, five of which were unearned.

In the eighth, Rinehart hit a solo home run, but that was the end of the scoring for West Virginia.

LSU advances to the College World Series which begins Friday, June 13 in Omaha, Nebraska.
