Record 5 SEC teams highlight College World Series field
Five SEC teams reached the eight-team field, and only five of the top 16 national seeds advanced to Omaha, officials said.
- A record five SEC teams comprise the eight-team field beginning play at the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska, on Friday.
- Only five of the top 16 national seeds reached Omaha, equaling last year's total, as previous contenders like LSU faced elimination before the final field was set.
- Troy, the only program from outside the Power 4, swept Little Rock by a combined 19-4 score in the Super Regionals to secure its spot.
- Alabama and Oklahoma completed the field on Monday, sweeping their respective Super Regionals to join Georgia, West Virginia, and Texas in the tournament bracket.
- The College World Series begins Friday with West Virginia and other programs seeking their first titles; the tournament enters a notably unpredictable phase this year.
