Oregon State's Pat Casey retires 2 months after defeating Arkansas for national championship

Oregon State baseball coach Pat Casey, who led the Beavers to three national championships, has announced his retirement after 24 seasons with the team.

Casey's most recent College World Series title came this summer, following back-to-back titles in 2006 and 2007. Since 2005, the Beavers have made the NCAA tournament field 12 times and they've advanced to Omaha six times. The team also won five conference championships under Casey.

"My problem is, what I expect from my players on the field I expect out of myself," Casey said during an emotional news conference in Corvallis on Thursday.
