64 teams entered the regional competition just a week ago, and now just 16 remain. Winning a regional is not easy as defending national champion Virginia and Ole Miss both lost the regionals they were hosting. Coming out of the regional in Virginia was #3 seed Eastern Carolina, who heads to Lubbock for a best of 3 series with a trip to Omaha and the College World Series on the line.
ECU Pirates
The Pirates from Greenville, North Carolina play in the American Athletic Conference (AAC) against teams like Houston, Memphis, and Tulane, who won the regular season championship with a record of 15-7.
