CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — Henry Godbout hit a go-ahead three-run home run in the bottom of the seventh inning and 12th-seeded Virginia came from behind to beat Kansas State 7-4 in the opener of the Charlottesville Super Regional on Friday night.

Virginia (45-15) can advance to its seventh College World Series with a win on Saturday. Kansas State (35-25), which has never won a super regional or played in the CWS, must win the next two games to advance.

Kaelen Culpepper’s two-run double in the third gave the Wildcats a 3-0 lead.

Virginia used a sacrifice fly and a groundout to score twice in the fifth and get within a run. The Cavaliers took a 4-3 lead the next inning on Griff O’Ferrall’s two-out two-run double.

K-State tied the game in the top of the seventh on David Bishop’s one-out solo homer.

Godbout’s go-ahead shot to left field on a 1-0 pitch was his ninth home run of the season and it was the only hit the Cavaliers had in the inning.

Evan Blanco (8-3) got the start and the win for Virginia. He allowed four runs on five hits and a walk in seven innings, striking out nine. Matt Augustin got the final two outs for his first save.

Blake Dean (4-4) took the loss after giving up two runs on a hit and a walk, retiring two batters.

Virginia most recently appeared in the CWS last season. The Cavaliers won their only championship in 2015 when they beat Vanderbilt. Virginia was the runner-up in 2014, losing to the Commodores.

McCain was born on October 4, 1959, in Pensacola, Florida. He enjoyed surfing, baseball, and soccer. In 1997, he graduated from Jacksonville Episcopal High School.

Afterward, McCain attended the University of Virginia, where he majored in Systems Engineering, pledged SAE, participated in Navy ROTC, and then met his future bride, Ashley Jardine McCain.

After graduating, McCain joined the Navy to learn to fly, spending six years flying A-6 Intruders before beginning a long career with American Airlines. He then excelled and found work he truly loved, especially after being made captain.

Those who knew McCain said that he could always be counted on to tell you what he knew and, more often than not, explain why he was right.

He was also described as a loyal friend to many, and that he cherished each and every friendship that he had.

McCain was a devoted son and a loving father to Caroline McCain Hendrickson and Douglas Shepp McCain Jr., and recently found great joy in being Teddy’s grandfather.

His peers will remember him for his generous heart, his loyal friendships and his unwavering love for his family.

Private services will be held for his family. On Saturday, May 30, from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m., a memorial gathering will be held at the Princess Anne Country Club in Virginia Beach.
