College World Series

For people who check facts

The College World Series is the tournament which determines the NCAA Division I collegiate baseball champion. It takes place in May of each year. Since 1950, the tournament has been held at Rosenblatt Stadium in Omaha, Nebraska; previous tournaments were held in Kalamazoo, Michigan (1947-48) and Wichita, Kansas (1949). The name is derived from that of the World Series championship held in Major League Baseball.

The tournament field, which consists of the eight teams emerging from regional playoffs (or "Super-Regionals"), proceeds by means of double-elimination play. In 2003 the champion was determined by a best-of-3 final series between the last two remaining teams with fewer than two losses; in earlier years, the final two teams met for a single championship game. In the results shown here, Score indicates the score of the championship game(s) only.

The Division II tournament has been held in Montgomery, Alabama since 1985. The Division III tournament has been held in Appleton, Wisconsin since 2000.
