The 2025 NCAA Baseball Tournament gets underway with 16 Regional matchups across the country this weekend. These top-16 teams have been awarded the opportunity to host their initial bracket after a stellar season prior to the tournament.
In terms of overall bids, the SEC earned the most at 13 teams making the final NCAA Tournament field. The ACC (9) followed, then the Big 12 (8), Big Ten (4), Sun Belt (2), AAC (2), Conference USA (2) and the Big West (2).
Regionals are contested under a double elimination format, before next weekend’s Super Regionals turn to a best of three series. Whoever emerges from each Super Regional will advance to Omaha, where the final eight teams will battle for the national championship at the 2025 College World Series. Below you can find the updated bracket:
Nashville Regional
May 30
2. Louisville 8, 3. East Tennessee State 3
Three Louisville players had two RBI – including Eddie King Jr., who had a two-run home run as part of a three-hit day – en route to an 8-3 victory over East Tennessee State to get the Nashville Regional off and running. The duo of Patrick Forbes and Brennyn Cutts held ETSU to just three hits in the effort and advanced into the winners’ bracket.
1. Vanderbilt 4, 4. Wright State 3
Through six innings, Wright State flirted with history as Cam Allen was in the midst of a no-hitter. However, Raiders coach Alex Sogard pulled him, and the Vanderbilt offense woke up immediately with a solo home run from Brodie Johnston. That was part of a three-home run outburst – the last of which was a go-ahead shot from Riley Nelson, which wasn’t without some controversy, as Vanderbilt came back for the win.
May 31
Wright State 7, East Tennessee State 5 – East Tennessee State eliminated
Although Wright State struck first in Saturday’s elimination game, East Tennessee State rallied to take a 5-4 lead. The Raiders didn’t back down, though, and got big swings from Patrick Fultz and Luke Arnold to regain a 7-5 lead, which held as the final as Wright State advanced in the elimination bracket.

4. Columbia 11, 1. Southern Miss 4
Columbia pulled off one of the biggest upsets of Day One in the NCAA Tournament, knocking off host Southern Miss in Hattiesburg to send themselves through to the top bracket and shake up the entire field.

May 31
Southern Miss 6, Alabama 5 – Alabama eliminated
Southern Miss was just a few outs away from being the first national seed eliminated. Alabama had the Golden Eagles on the ropes but a little Hattiesburg magic came through at the right time. A two-out, two-strike two-RBI single from Tucker Stockman in the eighth inning wound up being the difference. Alabama will be the one heading home instead, ending the second season of the Rob Vaughn era in Tuscaloosa.

The Mississippi State offense was firing on all cylinders Friday night as the Bulldogs pulled off the 11-2 victory over Northeastern and end the longest winning streak in Division I.

1. North Carolina 4, 4. Holy Cross 0
The first three innings of North Carolina’s battle with Holy Cross were scoreless, but the Tar Heels made a three-run dent in the bottom of the fourth inning, due to a couple of big hits. They’d add on another run in the bottom of the fifth, and that was all starter Jake Knapp needed. He delivered 8.1 innings of shutout ball, and Walker McDuffie came on for the final two outs. North Carolina has championship aspirations, and they started their journey off with a bang.
2. Oklahoma 7, 3. Nebraska 4

Florida finally got off the mat in the bottom of the fourth with two runs, but it was far from enough. They’d add on another run in the bottom of the eighth and a couple in the ninth, but East Carolina’s offensive explosion — 11 runs on 15 hits, coupled with some impressive pitching — Ethan Norby going 7.1 innings and striking out ten, put a stake through Florida’s hearts.
