PHOTOS: LSU knocks off Florida 18-4 to win program’s 7th national title

Second-year coach Jay Johnson led LSU to a national championship on Monday night.

LSU’s run at the College World Series in Omaha ended with a dogpile.

The Tigers captured the seventh national championship in program history on Monday night and the first under second-year head coach [autotag]Jay Johnson[/autotag]. Despite all the talk surrounding the availability of ace [autotag]Paul Skenes[/autotag], LSU didn’t need him as it breezed to an 18-4 series-clinching win over Florida.

The Tigers fell behind 2-0 after the first two at-bats resulted in a single and a Wyatt Langford home run, but it was all LSU after that. [autotag]Thatcher Hurd[/autotag] recovered to have a great game on the mound, and the offense erupted to break the CWS hits record the Gators set Sunday with 24.

Here were the photos from Monday night as the Tigers captured a title.
