College Baseball NCAA Super Regional Central Wrapup

June 7, 2013
By

After a four-day stretch filled with plenty of drama, 14 of the 16 top seeds/regional hosts ended up advancing to the Super-Regional round in the 2013 NCAA Baseball Championship. A pair of regional 2-seeds – Oklahoma and Rice – round out the Super-Regional field, as the Sooners won the Regional at Virginia Tech and the Owls flew home from the University of Oregon having bested the national 8th-seeded Ducks. front-page photo courtesy of UCLA

All but four of the advancing teams swept through their respective regionals (3-0). The four sites that extended to rematch games on Monday included: Vanderbilt (beat Georgia Tech), Mississippi State (beat Central Arkanass), North Carolina (outlasted Florida Atlantic in a wild 12-11, 13-inning game) and Oregon, which lost to Rice for a second time (the Owls started 2-0, earlier beating Oregon in the winners-bracket game). Vanderbilt, UNC and Mississippi State also had started their regionals 2-0 but were upset on Sunday, forcing the decisive rematches on Monday.

Oregon’s loss opened the door for North Carolina State to play at home in the Super-Regional round (vs. Rice), while Oklahoma will be heading to national 4-seed LSU.

The Super Regionals again will have a staggered start, with the left side of the NCAA bracket (four sites) starting on Friday while the other four sites will get underway on  Saturday. Daily start times and television coverage for all eight Super Regionals are included below.

Here are the Super-Regional matchups, paired with the potential College World Series opponents (i.e. the UNC-SC winner will have the NC State-Rice winner during the first round of games in Omaha).

Additional information and links will be added to this page throughout the week.
