MCWS HISTORY: Winningest coaches | Most titles | Most appearances
Here’s a closer look at how the tournament operates:
What distinguishes the Division I baseball tournament from the College World Series?
The NCAA DI baseball tournament features a 64-team format that begins in late May. After two rounds of play—with each round involving multiple games—only eight teams advance. These teams then compete in Omaha, NE, for the College World Series. The CWS represents the climax of the DI tournament, featuring two brackets, with the winners of each bracket meeting in the CWS finals, a best-of-three series to determine the NCAA champion.
When was the College World Series inaugurated?
The inaugural NCAA DI baseball tournament took place in 1947 and would hardly resemble the tournament we know today. The 1947 event included eight teams divided into two four-team, single-elimination brackets. The winners—California and Yale—contested a best-of-three final in Kalamazoo, MI. California emerged undefeated through the first CWS, defeating Yale to claim the inaugural title.
How are teams chosen for the NCAA Division I baseball tournament?
Since 1954, the NCAA DI baseball tournament has been separated into two qualifying categories: automatic berths and at-large selections. As of 2025, 29 conference champions are granted automatic berths, with 35 teams receiving at-large bids, determined by the NCAA DI Baseball Committee.
