Buckeye 2015 posted: Yep, if the pitcher is on a predetermined pitch count, they can get the win without going 5 innings.   Happened to my son last year.  I would assume it's typically northern teams in early season games who haven't thrown a lot due to the cold. 

 It’s not that I don’t believe you because there are always changes I don’t keep up with. I’m trying to get hold of a set of NCAA rules to read what it says because the 2016 rules have nothing on it.

b� If the starting pitcher does not pitch enough innings, the win is credited to
a relief pitcher in the following manner:
1)
The winning relief pitcher shall be the one who is the pitcher of record
when his team goes ahead and remains ahead throughout the remainder
of the game� No pitcher may receive credit for a victory if the opposing
team ties the score or goes ahead after he has left the game�
rUle 10 / sCorIng
99
Note
: Whenever the score is tied, the game becomes a new contest insofar as the
winning and losing pitchers are concerned.
Exception—
If a relief pitcher conforms to the above regulations but
pitches briefly and ineffectively, the scorer should not credit him with a
win� If a succeeding relief pitcher pitches effectively and helps maintain
the lead, the scorer should award the win to that succeeding pitcher
(2)
If his team maintains the lead throughout the game, and more than one
relief pitcher is used, the scorer shall award the win to the relief pitcher
that pitches most effectively, regardless of the number of innings pitched�
3)
By pre-arrangement, if three or more pitchers are to be used, the pitcher
of record shall be considered the winning pitcher
 
This covers both.....the starter not throwing the required innings....and the pre-arrangement requirement
