Charlotte, NC – The dates, times and television networks for the eight NCAA Division I Baseball Championship super regional sites have been announced by the NCAA Division I Baseball Committee.
Five teams from the Atlantic Coast Conference have advanced to the Super Regionals after winning their respective regionals over the weekend. All five programs – Clemson, Florida State, North Carolina, NC State and Virginia – hosted their regionals as top 16 national seeds in the championship.
The five teams advancing to Super Regionals matches the ACC record and is the highest total since 2013. With five teams advancing, no conference in the country will have more representation in the Super Regionals than the ACC.
A total of eight Super Regionals are scheduled for this weekend, June 7-10. Each will be a best-of-three format, with the winners moving on to the Men’s College World Series, taking place from June 14-24 at Charles Schwab Field in Omaha, Nebraska.
Florida State will be making its NCAA-leading 18th Super Regional appearance and its first since 2019.

North Carolina will play host to Tucson Regional champion West Virginia in the Chapel Hill Super Regional beginning on Friday, June 7, at 6 p.m.
After winning the Raleigh Regional, NC State will advance to the Super Regionals for the sixth time in program history.
