For the second time in school history, the Kansas State Wildcats are going to Super Regionals.

 

The Wildcats defeated Southeast Missouri State, 7-2, to sweep the Fayetteville Regional.

 

KSU entered the region as the 3-seed, but quickly made an impression, dismantling Lousiana Tech 19-4, before beating top seed Arkansas 7-6.

 

Star shortstop Kaelen Culpepper was the best player in the Regional, hitting for the cycle against Louisiana Tech, the first Wildcat to hit for the cycle since 2014. He continued the success with a 3-run homer against Arkansas to upset the nation's fifth-ranked team.

 

KSU is now one of the final 16 teams battling for a national championship, and will face the Virginia Cavaliers in the Charlottesville Super Regional.
