CONWAY, SC (WMBF) – Coastal Carolina baseball is looking to make another College World Series run.<\/p>\n
That run must start at regionals, and the placement for the first stage of the college baseball playoffs was announced Monday during the NCAA Baseball Championship Selection Special.<\/p>\n
Coastal Carolina (37-21) was selected for the Tallahassee Regional in Florida.<\/p>\n
The other teams in the regional are Northern Illinois (35-17), St. John\u2019s (33-24), and 10-seed Florida State (38-17), the regional host.<\/p>\n
For the first game of the regional, Florida State will take on St. John\u2019s Friday at 3 p.m.<\/p>\n
Coastal Carolina plays Northern Illinois Friday at 8 p.m.<\/p>\n
The regional is double-elimination, and the winner will advance to the super regionals.<\/p>\n
Coastal Carolina reached the College World Series finals but lost to LSU in 2025. <\/p>\n
That series, which the Tigers won in a 2-0 sweep, was not without controversy.<\/p>\n
In the second and final game of the series, head coach Kevin Schnall and assistant coach Matt Schilling were ejected in the first inning after arguing a call.<\/p>\n
It was the second time CCU made it to the College World Series finals, the first since 2016. CCU captured the title that year.<\/p>\n
