Postseason baseball is back in the Magnolia State as both Mississippi State and Ole Miss have been selected as regional host sites for the upcoming NCAA Baseball Tournament.
For the Bulldogs and the Rebels, the road to Omaha will begin in their respective backyards as Dudy Noble and Swayze will host four-team regionals next weekend (June 4-7). Seeding and the full list of teams in each regional will be announced Monday morning at 11 a.m. Mississippi State has a chance to be named as one of the top-8 national seeds—setting up to host a super regional.
