NCAA baseball tournament format
The NCAA baseball tournament is divided into three rounds: the regionals, super regionals and College World Series.
The regionals comprise the 16 highest-seeded teams in the country, each of which hosts a four-team double-elimination regional. The 16 regional winners then advance to a best-of-three series in the super regional round.
From there, the eight super regional winners advance to Omaha, Nebraska for the CWS, the first portion of which, similarly to the regional round, is double elimination. Once only two teams remain — one from each side of the bracket — they play in a best-of-three championship series to determine the national champion.
