The Coastal Carolina Chanticleers and Arizona Wildcasts hope to start off their runs in Omaha on the right foot, as they both open their NCAA Men’s College World Series schedules on Friday afternoon.

Arizona debuted in 1954 and made five total appearances in the ‘50s. The Wildcats showed up three times each in the ‘60s, ‘70s and ‘80s, while winning the 1976, 1980 and 1986 titles. Then came a slump of just one appearance between 1986 and 2012, though the program has reached the CWS four times since then.

Arizona made it to Omaha all but one year from 1954-60 and won its three titles in the 1970s and 1980s across five CWS appearances. After missing it 17 consecutive times between 1987 and 2003, the Wildcats returned to the CWS in 2004, marking their first of five appearances this century. Four of those trips have come since 2012.
