Tennessee defeated Texas A&M, 6-5, in game No. 3 of the College World Series Finals at Charles Schwab Field Omaha in Omaha, Nebraska, on Monday.
Tennessee won the best-of-three series, 2-1, against the Aggies. The Vols won the program’s first national championship.
“Very surreal,” seventh-year Tennessee head coach Tony Vitello said after winning a national championship. “Hard to center yourself, which is a good thing, being lost in the moment, I guess. Nothing too intelligent to say other than the first thing to say is I hope the fans that have turned this into an insane party, insane event, got the series that they wanted and that they deserved.”
The Vols celebrated winning the 2024 national championship on Tuesday at Market Square in Knoxville. Below are photos of Tennessee’s celebration.
