UCLA earned the No. 1 overall seed for the 2026 NCAA Division I baseball championship, wrapping up a season-long grip on the top spot. The field of 64 is set, with Georgia Tech, Georgia, Auburn, North Carolina, Texas, Alabama, and Florida filling out the top eight. Regionals kick off Friday in double-elimination format across 16 sites nationwide.

The SEC dominates hosting duties with seven regionals, including Alabama, Auburn, Florida, and Mississippi State. Kansas hosts a regional for the first time in program history in Lawrence, while West Virginia returns to the postseason after a one-year absence. The Big Ten, ACC, and Big 12 each have two or three hosts, with Southern Miss as the lone non-Power-4 school on the list.

Games air on ESPN, ESPN+, the SEC Network, and ACC Network through the Super Regionals window of June 5-8, with the Men's College World Series running June 12-22 in Omaha.
