Louisville baseball vs. Texas A&M: Aggies walk it off in Game 1 of NCAA super regional

COLLEGE STATION, Texas — The Louisville baseball team is looking to end a College World Series drought that predates most players on its roster. Ditto Texas A&M.

The No. 12 Cardinals (42-20-1) dropped Game 1 of the best-of-three NCAA Tournament super regional series 5-4 in walk-off fashion to the No. 5 Aggies (41-18) at Blue Bell Park in College Station, Texas.

Taking the mound for Louisville was senior righty Jared Poland. In front of Texas A&M's rowdy 12th Man, the Cardinals' ace tried to bounce back from his last start, when he allowed a season-high seven runs in a loss to Michigan in Game 2 of regional play at Jim Patterson Stadium.

"I wasn't making great pitches, wasn't pitching the best I could," Poland said Thursday in College Station. "Baseball is kind of a game of failure. You gotta have short-term memory loss, so I'm gonna do that."
