The Arizona Wildcats beat UC Santa Barbara 3-0 on Wednesday in an elimination game at the College World Series in Omaha.
The victory advances the Wildcats to a game Friday against Oklahoma State, who beat Arizona on Monday night.
Arizona scored three times in the third against UCSB, with two of the runs coming on a home run by Jared Oliva. The Wildcats got seven innings from starting pitcher J.C. Cloney.
The Wildcats will have to beat the Cowboys twice in order to advance to the championship series. Oklahoma State only needs one win to advance.
