The 2026 NCAA baseball tournament is heating up, with the Men's College World Series (MCWS) set to take place in Omaha, Nebraska, from June 12 to 22. After the super regionals, the remaining eight teams will battle it out at Charles Schwab Field, a stadium with a capacity of up to 35,000 fans. The MCWS has been a staple of college baseball since 1950, and Omaha has been its home for most of that time. But the championship has moved around a bit, with Rosenblatt Stadium hosting for 46 years before Charles Schwab Field took over in 2011.
The 2025 champions, LSU, swept Coastal Carolina in a two-game showdown, with left-hander Kade Anderson named the Most Outstanding Player. Jay Johnson became the fastest coach in college baseball history to collect two national championships at one school. The SEC has dominated Omaha recently, winning the last six titles.
The 2026 tournament field will be announced on May 25 at noon ET on ESPN2. 29 conference champions will receive automatic berths, and 35 teams will receive at-large bids, decided by the NCAA DI Baseball Committee. Teams must have a better than .500 record against DI opponents to be eligible for an at-large bid.
The super regionals are underway, with teams battling for a spot in Omaha. The Morgantown, Troy, Chapel Hill, Auburn, Lawrence, Tuscaloosa, Austin, and Athens super regionals are all in full swing, with exciting games and close contests. The MCWS promises to be a thrilling event, with the best college baseball teams in the country competing for the national championship. So mark your calendars and get ready for some exciting baseball action in Omaha!
