OMAHA, Neb. -- LSU will turn to a familiar face to try and extend its season one more day.
The Tigers are starting pitcher Jared Poche, the school's all-time winningest pitcher, against Florida in Game 2 of the College World Series championship finals. Poche already has two wins in the CWS this season after picking up one in relief.
Win No. 40 for Poche would mean the Tigers force a Game 3 on Wednesday to decide the national championship.
Poche's father, Dr. Jerry Poche, spoke at length on Tuesday about his and Jimmy Roy's - the father of LSU strength and conditioning coach Travis Roy - efforts to revive a fan in the stands after he suffered an apparent heart attack.
