LSU Hosts West Virginia in NCAA Baseball Super Regional for College World Series Spot

The 2025 NCAA baseball tournament super regional round features a matchup between No. 6 seed LSU and West Virginia, with the winner advancing to the College World Series. LSU, the defending national champions and host of the Baton Rouge Super Regional, advanced after a hard-fought regional final win against Little Rock, while West Virginia swept through the Clemson Regional. LSU boasts a strong pitching staff ranked among the nation's best and benefits from a formidable home-field advantage with record attendance at Alex Box Stadium. West Virginia enters with confidence, having performed exceptionally well on the road all season and recently overcoming tough environments like Clemson's. The broader tournament highlights a significant contrast between conferences: the SEC, despite setting records for tournament participation, has only four teams left in the super regionals, while the ACC maintains strong representation. LSU and Auburn now carry the SEC's hopes of continuing the conference's streak of College World Series appearances.
