College World Series title in 2014 and 2019

College World Series runner-up in 2015 and 2021

Vanderbilt University won its first national title by defeating the University of Virginia in the finals of the 2014 College World Series. Five years later, they won the championship again, defeating the University of Michigan in the finals.

Prior to their first title, the Commodores, led by first round draft pick Jeremy Sowers, just missed making the College World Series in 2004, before losing to eventual national runner-up, the University of Texas at Austin, in the 2004 CWS Super Regionals. They were ranked #1 nationally in 2007, led by David Price, Pedro Alvarez and Casey Weathers, but were again eliminated prior to the 2007 College World Series, this time in the Regionals. They reached the College World Series for the first time in 2011.
