The first tournament, in 1947, was an 8 team single elimination tournament. Four teams each were put into two playoff brackets, named the "Eastern Playoff" and the "Western Playoff." The winner of each bracket moved on to the College World Series, which was, at that time, a 2 team best-of-three game series.
He was the captain of the runner-up team

It's not easy to win the CWS. Florida State had a great coach and a great baseball program for years, but never won a title.
