Tech to host NCAA baseball regional

Georgia Tech's baseball team has been selected as one of the at-large schools for the NCAA baseball championship and the Jackets will host a regional, the NCAA announced on Sunday.

Tech (35-17-1) has hosted a regional at Russ Chandler Stadium eight previous times. Dates for the double-elimination regionals are May 29 thru June 1.

Georgia State (39-20), which qualified for the tournament by winning the CAA championship on Saturday, will find out where and who it will play at 12:30 p.m. Monday, when the entire field, as well as the seeds, will be set.

Georgia must also wait until Monday to find out if it made the 64-team field. It will not be a regional host.

Other regional sites: Arizona State, UC Irvine, Cal State Fullerton, Clemson, East Carolina, Florida, Florida State, LSU, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Rice, Texas, and TCU.
