West Virginia head coach Steve Sabins reflects on the Mountaineers' memorable College World Series victory and the moments that helped define another historic chapter in program history.
Sabins discusses WVU's fearless start, the pivotal relief appearance from Ian Korn, the clutch performance of Sam McDougall in a high-pressure situation, and the mindset that carried the Mountaineers through one of the biggest games in school history.
He also shares a personal moment from the dugout when he first thought about hearing "Take Me Home, Country Roads" played on college baseball's biggest stage and what it means to see Mountaineer Nation—and now the entire country—embrace West Virginia's remarkable run.
From leadership and resilience to state pride and togetherness, this is a look inside the mindset of the coach who has guided WVU Baseball to unprecedented heights.
