With the 6-5 win on Monday over No. 3 Texas A&M in Game 3 of the College World Series championship series at Charles Schwab Field in Omaha, Nebraska, Tennessee became the first No. 1 overall seed to win the CWS in 25 years.

Jim Morris' Miami Hurricanes did it in 1999.

The historic night for the Vols started with star second baseman Christian Moore launching a leadoff home run in the bottom of the first inning, which led to Tennessee alum and Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning hugging country music artist Morgan Wallen.

Tennessee — the fifth straight SEC team to win the CWS — tacked on two more runs in the third inning, going small ball instead, with a sacrifice fly to center from Dylan Dreiling and a single into left from Dean Curley, driving in Blake Burke and Hunter Ensley, respectively.

Dreiling hit a two-run homer in the seventh inning, and Kavares Tears' double drove in Ensley for a 6-1 lead.

Prior to its national championship Monday, Tennessee's best finish at the College World Series was runner-up in 1951.
