The 2022 NCAA Baseball Tournament is underway, and the Super Regional round is set after a weekend of play. Sixteen teams, including No. 1 seed Tennessee, No. 2 seed Stanford and unseeded Arkansas, won their regionals on Sunday and Monday to move on.
Below you’ll find the 2022 NCAA Tournament bracket, scores, schedule and more.
NCAA Baseball Tournament breakdown
Before we get to the bracket, scores, and more, you should know that the structure of the NCAA Baseball Tournament is a bit different from the more familiar hoops variant. Here are a few takeaways on that front:
- The field this year includes 31 automatic bids via conference championships and 33 at-large entrants. The first round of play is known as the regional, and it’s double-elimination format. Each of the 16 No. 1 seeds hosts its respective four-team regional, when possible. Each of the 16 regionals are seeded one through four. In each region, No. 1 faces No. 4, and No. 2 faces No. 3 on the first day of action. The winners of those two games then play each other, while the losers play an elimination game.
- The winner of each regional advances to the super regional. The super regional, which includes a total of 16 teams, is a best-of-three series format.
- The winners of the super regionals — eight teams in all — advance to the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska.
- The College World Series is a double-elimination format until the final two teams are left standing. At that point, slates are wiped clean, and it’s a best-of-three series to determine the national champion.
