The good news is that Lexington wasn’t selected for a regional. The bad news is that the University of Louisville baseball team, if it gets selected, is probably bound for some remote site west of the Rockies.
The NCAA Division I Baseball Committee announced the 16 regional sites for the 66th annual NCAA Division I Baseball Championship, and none of them are in Louisville or Lexington. By virtue of being awarded a regional, all 16 host institutions have also been selected to the 64-team championship field.
