The day that college baseball fans have been waiting for has finally arrived. We now know which 16 teams will be a regional host in the upcoming NCAA Tournament.

64 teams will make up the NCAA Tournament field, with 31 of those spots coming through automatic qualifiers, which are handed to teams that win their conference tournament titles. The remaining 33 spots in the field are given to teams on an at-large basis.

Heading into conference tournament week, only eight or nine teams felt safe regarding their chances to host a regional. As the tournaments across the country dragged on, the field became more and more clear, with a couple of teams not locking up their spot as a top 16 seed until the final day or two.

The 64 teams to make the NCAA Tournament will be split up into 16 regionals, with the four teams at each site playing in a double-elimination style pod. The winner of each regional will advance to the super regional round.

Each regional is matched up with another regional. The winners of the two regionals will match up in the super regional round, facing off for a trip to the College World Series in Omaha.

The full Field of 64 will be revealed during the selection show on Monday, May 29 at 12 noon ET. Regionals will get underway on Friday, June 2. The first day of each regional will feature matchups between each site’s No. 1 seed vs. the No. 4 seed, in addition to the No. 2 seed taking on the No. 3 seed.

The 16 regional host sites were announced on Sunday night, through the NCAA Baseball Twitter account.
