Cal State Fullerton junior David Olmedo-Barrera, who played for the Peninsula Oilers in 2013, homered in the top of the 11th inning to give the Titans a 4-3 Super Regional championship victory over Louisville on Monday in Louisville, Kentucky.

Olmedo-Barrera’s second home run of the night sends Fullerton to the College World Series for the 17th time in 41 years and the first time since 2009.

The Oilers open their season Thursday at Coral Seymour Memorial Park when they host the Alaska Goldpanners of Fairbanks in a nonleague game.
