Breyfogle touched on the special feeling of making it to Omaha, how the mission isn’t complete yet, the storied history of Arizona baseball, being coached by former Twin Chip Hale, and the bond with 3B Maddox Mihalakis.
Mihalakis was Minnesota Mr. Baseball in 2022 while at Hopkins high school. Breyfogle explained to us how cool it is that two Twin Cities players start for a team playing in the College World Series.
Arizona, winners of four national titles, was last in the College World Series in 2021.
