ATHENS, Ga. — For the second consecutive year and eighth time in school history, the University of Georgia will serve as one of 16 regional hosts for the 2025 NCAA Baseball Tournament, the selection committee announced Sunday night.

The three other teams that will join the Bulldogs at the NCAA Athens Regional will be announced on Monday, May 26 at noon ET on ESPN2 when the entire field of 64 and the top 16 national seeds are released. Regional competition is scheduled to take place at Foley Field from Friday-Monday, May 30-June 2. After the ESPN family of networks set the television matchups, a complete Athens Regional schedule will be announced Monday.

Third-ranked Georgia has posted a 42-15 record including 18-12 in the rugged Southeastern Conference in the second season under Ike Cousins head baseball coach Wes Johnson. Also, Johnson becomes the first UGA baseball coach to take his first two teams to the NCAA Tournament. His combined mark of 85-32 (35-25 SEC) is the most overall victories and SEC wins by a coach in their first two seasons in Georgia baseball history.

The Bulldogs will be making their 15th appearance in an NCAA Regional. The Bulldogs won their 2024 NCAA Regional to make their first Super Regional since 2008 and then fell a game short of advancing to the College World Series (CWS). Georgia’s last trip to the CWS came in 2008 when it finished as the national runner-up.
