OMAHA, Neb. - JC Cloney pitched a four-hitter and Ryan Aguilar drove in a pair of runs, leading Arizona to a 3-0 victory over Coastal Carolina in Game 1 of the College World Series finals on Monday night.
 
The Wildcats (49-22) can wrap up their second national championship in five years with a win Tuesday.
 
Cloney extended his scoreless innings streak at the CWS to 16. The junior left-hander pitched seven innings in the Wildcats' 3-0 win over UC Santa Barbara last Wednesday. 
 
Cloney (8-4) allowed four singles, walked three and struck out six in the second complete game of his career. He is the first pitcher to throw a shutout in the College World Series finals.
