On this day in 2001, Morris’ Hurricanes completed one of the most dominant stretches the college game has witnessed to earn the program’s second College World Series title in three seasons.
Miami’s 12-1 win over Stanford in the title game tied the CWS championship game for margin of victory and capped a 17-game win streak, giving Morris his second title in eight seasons in Coral Gables.
Ron Fraser, who was inducted into the College Baseball Hall of Fame in 2006, won two CWS crowns (1982, 1985) during 30 seasons at Miami.
Outfielder Charlton Jimerson, who had lead-off home runs during wins against Tennessee and Southern Cal, was named the CWS Most Outstanding Player.
