Texas is one of three Big 12 Schools listed as a potential NCAA regional host

The NCAA baseball postseason is only a few weeks away and on the path to Omaha, home of the NCAA World Series, are the 16 regional cities to host the first leg.

The NCAA Division 1 Baseball Committee announced their final 20 candidates that have the potential to host the 2021 Regionals and eight of those cities will host the subsequent Super Regionals.

Among the final 20 candidates, three Big 12 programs were included: Texas, Texas Tech and TCU.

The field of teams will consist of 64 programs, similar to the college basketball NCAA Tournament. There will be 30 conference qualifying teams and 34 at-large bids.

As far as fans in attendance, the NCAA’s COVID-19 Medical Advisory Board has allowed stadiums to up to 50% capacity at respective stadiums. The 16 chosen schools to host the regionals will be announced on May 30 at 8:30 p.m. EDT.

Regionals will run from June 4 through June 7 and the Super Regionals will take place from June 11 through the 14.
