The Cardinals baseball team didnt fair so well in the Big East Baseball tournament this past week but they still had a great season winning the Big East regular-season title outright, their fourth regular-season championship in the last five years. They won 16 straight games which was the nation’s longest active streak at the time and Louisville’s longest since 1950. They also matched the school record for regular-season victories (46) set in 2010.
The Cardinals now look to a run in the NCAA Baseball tournament and they found out Sunday night they will host postseason baseball for the 4th time in 7 seasons. This is the 3rd NCAA Regional host in 5 seasons (’13, ’10, ’09). The Regional pairings, including the 3 teams that will join the Cardinals at the Louisville Regional, were announced today at 12:00PM on ESPNU. The Regional will begin on Friday, May 31 with games on FRI, SAT, and SUN, (MON if necessary). First Round Regional action starts Friday at 2PM: Oklahoma State v. Miami (FL). Then at 6PM: Louisville v. Bowling Green.
Make plans to get out to Jim Patterson Stadium and support this team. Lets let the college baseball world see what CardNation is about. Good Luck Cards!
