The 2009 College World Series began on June 13, and was held through June 24, 2009 in Omaha, Nebraska at historic Rosenblatt Stadium. As part of the 2009 collegiate baseball season, eight NCAA Division I college baseball teams met after having played their way through a 64-team bracket to crown a champion. It was the 63rd College World Series overall, and the 60th to be held in Omaha.

The Series was won by Louisiana State University, who won their sixth overall NCAA Baseball Championship, and the first national seed to win the title since Rice won the title as the #6 overall seed in 2003.

LSU junior outfielder Jared Mitchell won the Most Outstanding Player Award. Mitchell hit two home runs, a triple, 2 doubles, 8 RBIs, and scored 4 runs while also making a number of spectacular plays in the field.
