Staying Alive: The 16 teams competing for a spot in the College World Series
The weekend of regional action in the world of college baseball has now been completed, and the field of 64 teams to receive an invite to the NCAA Tournament has been whittled down to just 16 remaining schools.
Fortunately for Oregon fans, the Ducks are one of those 16 remaining teams. After sweeping their way through the Nashville regional and beating both Xavier and host Vanderbilt, Mark Wasikawski and his team will be hosting a Super Regional for the first time since 2012. This weekend, they will play a three-game series against Oral Roberts with the winner securing a spot in the College World Series.
The same goes for all 16 teams across the nation who are fighting for a chance to make it to Omaha, Nebraska. As the next weekend gets underway, these are the school still alive and playing for trip to the College World Series:
