No. 1 Tennessee (53-7) will host the Knoxville Regional of the NCAA Tournament June 3-6 at Lindsey Nelson Stadium.
The Vols won the Southeastern Conference regular season and tournament championship.
Sophomore pitcher Blade Tidwell has appeared in 11 games for the Vols this season.
Blade Tidwell’s stats by the numbers ahead of the Knoxville Regional
Matthew Leach of MLB.com released six college baseball prospects with their stock on the rise. Tidwell joins five other prospects.
Tidwell entered the year as one of the top pitching prospects in the Draft, but he missed much of the season due to injury. Tennessee’s dominant season has made it a bit easier for the Vols to be patient while Tidwell builds back up, and his SEC Tournament start against Vanderbilt was another encouraging sign.
He went 4 1/3 innings, which may not sound like all that much, but was his second-longest outing of the year. He held the rival Commodores to a run on three hits. Tidwell remains something of an unknown as long as he’s on the comeback trail, but every effective outing helps his case more. –Matthew Leach
