The Gators will host a regional at Condron Ballpark next weekend as one of the top-16 national seeds in the NCAA Tournament, the selection committee announced on Sunday night.
The seedings and matchups will be announced during the selection show on Monday at noon on ESPN2.
The Gators (39-22, 15-15 SEC) hosting postseason action would’ve seemed like a crazy thought about a month ago. At one point, they were 6-12 in SEC play, which left them in danger of missing the SEC Tournament, let alone the national tournament. They also received news that their ace, Hunter Barco, would undergo Tommy John surgery and not return this season.
