Wood, a 6-foot, 205-pound right-hander struck out the last three batters, breaking a MCWS record with 19. He became the first player to throw a no-hitter in the MCWS in 65 years. He actually had a perfect game going until the eighth inning when his breaking ball hit Dom Decker in the foot.

Wood's arsenal features a devastating four-seam fastball, and he used it masterfully against the Racers. Murray State was one of the hottest teams in the field offensively and used its bats to fuel a Cinderella run to Omaha, but the no-hitter brought the Racers' miraculous postseason to an end.
