Three teams with some impressive resumes enter the field for the first time this season. Dallas Baptist enters as the Missouri Valley automatic bid as they are 23-8 and have a 1.5 game lead in the conference, and Wake Forest and UAB enter as at-large bids from the ACC and Conference USA, respectively. Wake Forest has lost just one series this season and sit at 10-5 in the ACC and UAB is currently leading Conference USA. Western Carolina returns to the field after winning their last nine and NC State is barely clinging onto a spot in the field. Checking up on last weeks post, Sean Newcomb saw his streak of no earned runs end as he gave up four in a Hartford victory over Maine.
