Around The SEC: Conference Continues Baseball Domination

The SEC tied a record with 10 teams being selected into the Field of 64 and eight of those teams being a National Seed in the NCAA Tournament.

The SEC has been the home of the past three National Champions; Vanderbilt, Mississippi State, and Ole Miss have all carried the torch for the conference.

This year will be more of the same as the SEC has been given half of the 16 host sites. The most impressive part is that some of the teams hosting this season are not the same ones that seem to host every year.

Mississippi State and Ole Miss, the past two National Champions, are not in the tournament, but that did not stop the SEC from dominating. Auburn and Florida hosted regionals last year, and they will once again this year. However, seven SEC teams will host this year that did not last year: Kentucky, LSU, Alabama, Arkansas, Vanderbilt, Kentucky, and South Carolina.

The SEC has had a grip on college baseball for the last decade, and that grip only seems to be getting tighter.
