Baseball Majors Await Possible At-Large Bid from NCAA

JACKSON -- After finishing the regular season 32-6 and then dropping both games in the SCAC Tournament to finish 32-8, 11th-ranked Millsaps will have to wait until Sunday, May 10 to see if they'll earn a Pool C bid into the field of 54 NCAA Tournament teams.

With an in-region record of 29-5 during the year and currently the No. 1 team in the South Region by the first NCAA Regional Rankings, Millsaps is in good shape to earn an at-large bid and make its first postseason appearance since 2006 and sixth overall.

Thirty-five Pool A bids (automatic qualifiers) will be awarded, while the NCAA Division III Baseball selection committee decides who gets the six Pool B and 13 Pool C bids.

Regionals will be held May 13-17 at eight previously determined sites (below), with six teams at each pod, while the NCAA Division III World Series is slated for May 22-26 at Fox Cities Stadium in Appleton, Wisc.
