Coastal Carolina didn’t have answers for the victorious LSU Tigers in the College World Series on Sunday, but the Charleston, South Carolina, school wants answers for the ejection of two of its coaches from the championship series in Omaha, Nebraska.

Head coach Kevin Schnall and first base coach Matt Schilling were ejected for arguing with the umpires in the Chanticleers’ 5–3 loss to the Tigers. Coastal Carolina saw a 26-game winning streak stopped cold in a two-game sweep by LSU, and the ejections punctuated a slide for a team that was looking to win a second MCWS title in a decade.
