RAWLINGS FINAL NCSA TOP 20

Where they started is where they finished.  The 2022 NCSA World Series National Champions, the Virginia Tech Hokies began atop the preseason rankings and remained there for most of the season until Sacred Heart dethroned them for two straight months.  But after claiming the 2023 NCSA World Series, the Hokies are back where they began…the #1 Team in the NCSA sitting atop the RAWLINGS FINAL NCSA TOP 20!  They will hold that title until the 23-24 season begins.  Who is going to be the next #1 team in the county.  Stay tuned.  The 23-24 season will be here before you know it!

Thank you all for a great season!

FIELD IS SET FOR NCSA WORLD SERIES

We started the 2022-2023 NCSA Season with 152 Teams.  By April 23rd, we were down to the 32 teams who qualified for the 2023 NCSA Regional Tournaments.  Now, we are down to our final 16!

In Day 2 of action at the NCSA Regionals, Iowa’s bats were unstoppable and they were able to defeat Air Force 24-5 in the Championship Game to win the Mid-America Regional Championship.  Air Force earns runner-up status and also qualifies for the NCSA World Series.  In the Pacific UC Davis takes down Oregon 9-8 to claim the Regional Championship.  Both UC Davis and Oregon qualify for the World Series.  In both the Great American and Great Lakes Regional, they needed the if necessary championship games.  In the end, Michigan State outlasted Illinois winning 5-2 and Grand Valley State topped Wisconsin 14-6.  All 4 of those teams also punched their tickets to Columbus!

Plenty more action all across all 8 regional tournaments.  Click HERE to see how we got down to our final 16.

REGIONALS DAY 1!

As we all know, mother nature remains undefeated and she played a part in Day 1 at the NCSA Regional Tournaments.  Both the New England Region and North Atlantic Region moved to a single elimination format and the Mid-Atlantic and South Atlantic had to play their respective tournaments in 1 day.  The Great Lakes and Great American Regionals had to halt their games due to rain but will pick up tomorrow.  Because of this 8 teams have officially punched their ticket to the 2023 NCSA World Series and 4 more have secured spots.

Sacred Heart University wins the North Atlantic Regional Tournament after defeating Penn State 6-1.  With Penn State being the runner-ups, they also move onto the NCSA World Series.  Maine also wins the New England Region and qualifies for the 2023 NCSA World Series after they defeated UConn in the Championship Game 7-6.  UConn also punches their ticket as the New England Runner up.  Virginia Tech is one step closer to defending their championship after they defeated JMU in the Mid-Atlantic Championship Game 9-1.  The Dukes from JMU as runner-ups are also Georgia bound.  Clemson defeats Georgia 8-5 in the South Atlantic Championship to move onto the World Series, while the Bulldogs also qualify for the World Series as the runner-ups.

Also, in the Pacific Region, the championship game is decided with both UC-Davis and Oregon vying for the championship but both securing spots in the World Series.  Additionally, in the Mid-America, Iowa and Air Force have secured spots at the NCSA World Series but who will win the region and who will finish runner-up is still to be decided.
