How does NCAA baseball tournament work? Explaining regionals, supers, CWS format
How does NCAA baseball tournament work? Explaining regionals, supers, CWS format Show Caption Hide Caption UNC baseball coach, players discuss winning 2025 ACC Tournament After winning the 2025 ACC Tournament championship, Scott Forbes, Jackson Van De Brake and Gavin Gallaher discussed the Tar Heels' performance. The field for the 2025 NCAA baseball tournament is officially set, as the entire 64-team bracket was revealed on Monday. Vanderbilt was tabbed as the No. 1 overall seed in the country for the first time since 2007, while 12 additional SEC teams heard their names called during the bracket reveal show — the most bids by a conference in a single NCAA baseball tournament. Speaking of the SEC, seven teams from the conference were given home-field advantage in the opening round by hosting a regional to open the postseason. The last five national champions from the College World Series have been from the SEC. Does that trend continue this year? Time will only tell come late June in Omaha, Nebraska at Charles Schwab Field. REQUIRED READING: NCAA baseball bracket 2025: Full regional schedule, matchups, dates for CWS field Regional play starts on May 30 with four noon ET first pitches at the Chapel Hill Regional (UNC vs. Holy Cross), Conway Regional (East Carolina vs. Florida), Athens Regional (Georgia vs. Binghamton) and Clemson Regional (Kentucky vs. West Virginia). As the 2025 NCAA baseball tournament begins and progresses through the CWS, fans who watch the action unfold for the first time may wonder how the tournament format actually works. Here's what you need to know about the format of the NCAA baseball tournament: How many teams make the NCAA baseball tournament? A total of 64 teams make the NCAA baseball tournament, beginning with the regional round. The field is cut by 48 teams heading into the super regional round, at which point 16 teams remain. After the super regional round, the field will be reduced to eight teams, each of which travel to Omaha for the College World Series. Two teams — one from each side of the CWS bracket — will advance to the finals, with one team left standing after one final best-of-three series. How many rounds are there in the NCAA baseball tournament? The NCAA baseball tournament is comprised of three rounds: the regionals, the super regionals and the College World Series. NCAA baseball tournament format explained The NCAA baseball tournament is comprised of 64 teams: 35 at-large bids and 29 automatic qualifiers in 2025. Just like March Madness, the opening weekend of the NCAA baseball tournament is scattered throughout the country at 16 different regional site locations, which are awarded to the top 16 seeds in the bracket. The regional sites consist of a four-team bracket, or pod, and are generally geographically structured. As for the round itself, the format of the regionals is a double-elimination style. To make it out of the regional round, a team can win three straight games or four games, the latter of which consists of making it out of the "elimination bracket" and beating the representative of the "winner's bracket" twice in the regional championship game. Those who win their respective regional round will advance to the best-of-three super regional weekend. The super regionals are traditionally held at the home ballpark of the top eight seeds unless, of course, one of those respective teams is eliminated in the regional round. From there, the final eight teams (i.e., those that win a super regional series), advance to the coveted College World Series. College World Series format Similarly to the regional round of the NCAA baseball tournament, the College World Series begins with a double-elimination style format comprised of two four-team brackets. In other words, the four teams in their respective bracket will clash against each other until there is a winner crowned in each bracket. Those who lose their opening game in Omaha will fall into the "elimination bracket" with an 0-1 record. It's self-explanatory from there: survive and advance. Those that win their opening game in Omaha will advance further in the "winner's bracket" with a 1-0 record. If a team starts the CWS with a 2-0 record, they will need just one additional win in the semifinals to advance into the CWS championship series. Meanwhile, those that lose a "winner's bracket" game will drop into the "elimination bracket" and look to come out of it by winning out. The CWS championship series is a best-of-three format and features the winner of each side of the bracket. The minimum number of games a team can play in Omaha and win the CWS is five games, while the most would be seven games.

ASUN baseball championship canceled due to rain, Stetson earns AQ bid to NCAA tournament
ASUN baseball championship canceled due to rain, Stetson earns AQ bid to NCAA tournament Show Caption Hide Caption UNC baseball press conference vs Boston College in ACC Tournament Following UNC baseball's win vs. Boston College in the 2025 ACC Tournament, three Tar Heels discussed the comeback and looked ahead to Florida State. Florida Gulf Coast baseball's season came to a controversial end on Sunday night. FGCU led Stetson 6-5 in the seventh inning when a rain delay came, which lasted over six hours. The game was never resumed, as the Atlantic Sun was forced to cancel the game and declare both teams co-tournament winners, despite FGCU being named the winner of Sunday's game. However, Stetson was declared the ASUN's automatic qualifier to the 2025 NCAA baseball tournament, as announced by Atlantic Sun Conference commissioner after the game was called. REQUIRED READING: NCAA baseball tournament: Regional host sites for College World Series bracket "Despite tremendous efforts, we were unable to complete the 2025 Atlantic Sun Conference Baseball Tournament due to inclement weather," ASUN commissioner Jeff Bacon said in a statement. "Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) has been declared the winner of today's first championship game and, with FGCU and Stetson University (Stetson) having a 1-1 record versus each other, both FGCU and Stetson will be recognized as 2025 ASUN co-tournament champions. "Per ASUN policy, Stetson University will be awarded our 2025 automatic qualifier. Congratulations to both teams for an outstanding season, and best wishes to the Hatters as they continue on." Stetson was the No. 1 overall seed of the ASUN tournament, and had a 24-6 conference record this season compared to FGCU's 16-14 mark. Stetson was also in the winner's bracket of the double-elimination tournament, entering the championship with a 3-0 record (and having beaten the Eagles in the second round of the winner's bracket 5-4 on May 22). REQUIRED READING: NCAA baseball tournament bracket: Who has received automatic bid to CWS field? That meant FGCU (3-1 in tournament play) would have needed to beat the Hatters a second time to win the automatic qualifier from the ASUN. An email sent to the Atlantic Sun asking for clarification on the policy was not immediately returned to the USA TODAY Sports Network. Stetson now awaits its name to be called on Monday, when the full 64-team NCAA baseball tournament field will be revealed.
