OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Virginia and Vanderbilt have played themselves into the best-of-3 College World Series finals. Robbie Coman’s two-run, bases-loaded single gave the Cavaliers the lead in the fourth inning of a 4-1 win over Mississippi. Josh Sborz and two relievers limited Ole Miss to six singles.

The Commodores advanced by beating Texas 4-3 on Tyler Campbell’s walkoff single in the bottom of the 10th. Winning pitcher Hayden Stone allowed a run and three hits while striking out eight over 5 2/3 innings of relief.

Game 1 of the finals is Monday at Omaha.
