  Omaha, NE (Sports Network) - Fresno State and North Carolina were winners on Sunday at the Men's College World Series at Rosenblatt Stadium.

  Seth Williams went 3-for-4 with three RBI as the Tar Heels doubled up LSU, 8-4.

  Kyle Seager added three hits, an RBI and scored twice, while Tim Fedroff also collected three hits with two runs scored for North Carolina, which was the national runner-up the last two years.

  Alex White notched the win for UNC, allowing four hits and three runs with six strikeouts over seven innings.

  Rice starter Ryan Berry was tagged for nine runs -- five earned -- on seven hits in 3 1/3 innings and took the loss, as the Owls lost their first tournament game. They face LSU on Tuesday in an elimination game.
