BSB: UGA will be a regional host for the NCAA Baseball Tournament

For the first time since 2019, the University of Georgia baseball team will serve as one of 16 regional hosts for the annual NCAA Baseball Tournament, the selection committee announced Sunday night.

The three other teams that will join the Bulldogs at the Athens Regional will be announced on Monday, May 27 at noon ET on ESPN2/ESPNU when the entire field of 64 including the top 16 seeds is released. Also, a complete Athens Regional schedule will be released Monday afternoon.

 

 

 

 

Regional competition is scheduled to take place at Foley Field from Friday-Monday, May 31-June 3.

Eighth-ranked Georgia has posted a 39-15 record including 17-13 in the rugged Southeastern Conference in the first season under Ike Cousins head baseball coach Wes Johnson. It is the most overall wins and SEC wins by a first-year coach in Georgia baseball history. Also, Johnson now becomes just the second UGA baseball coach to take his first team to the NCAA Tournament, joining David Perno who did it in 2002.

The Bulldogs will be making their 14th appearance in an NCAA Regional and first since 2022. Georgia last advanced to the College World Series in 2008 when the Bulldogs finished as the national runner-up.
