Good morning, Morgantown.

Today, a new Youth Apprenticeship Program law takes effect to give high school juniors and seniors hands-on trade training in Morgantown; the West Virginia Department of Education and local boards require approved companies to offer safe, supervised work tasks (in fields like manufacturing and health care) to build skills.

The Mountaineers face North Carolina today in Omaha as they aim for a win to move closer to a MCWS finals spot, with Big 12 Conference Pitcher of the Year Maxx Yehl starting for WVU and UNC countering with Ryan Lynch; the game begins at 6:12 p.m. (CST).

A fielding error by WVU second baseman Brodie Kresser on Sunday at Charles Schwab Field allowed North Carolina to take a 5 to 2 lead in the College World Series, ending WVU’s six-game winning streak; WVU will face Troy at 2 p.m. Tuesday in an elimination game.

Morgantown's baseball team (6-5 loss) fell to George Washington in the Class AAAA state championship game at Jack Cook Field in Huntington on Saturday.

The game saw several lead changes and ended when a double in the sixth inning gave Washington the winning edge.
