"The UCLA baseball team (51-6) is hosting the Los Angeles Regional as the nation's No. 1 overall seed, and USC (43-15) is headed to the College Station Regional hosted by 12th-seeded Texas A&M, the NCAA announced Monday."
"UCLA faces Saint Mary's (4) in the Westwood opener at noon Friday on ESPNU, while Virginia Tech (2) and Cal Poly (3) will face off at 5 p.m on ESPN+ to complete the Los Angeles Regional. If the Bruins advance, they will host a super regional against the winner of the Morgantown Regional hosted by West Virginia."
"USC (2) is making its second consecutive NCAA tournament appearance for the first time since 2002.

"“When you start in August, the goal is to play in Omaha,” USC coach Andy Stankiewicz said, alluding to the home of the College World Series. “But before you get in Omaha, you got to get to a regional. And so, here we are. [We'd] certainly love to be hosting a regional, but it's OK. We're on our way to Texas to tee it up against some really good Texas teams.”"
